Acne Homemade Remedies

One of the first things people consider when they have acne is to go to the doctor and try to treat it that way. What most people don't realize is that there are a lot of homemade remedies that can treat acne. Often times, these are much cheaper than the expensive antibiotics that the doctors prescribe. More importantly, though, these homemade remedies are easier on the skin and are very easy to make. Typically, they're just things that are found around the house. Before getting an expensive prescription, try any of these acne homemade remedies.

• Take orange peels and grind it with a small amount of water. You want to get a paste from this grinding. Once the grinding has resulted in a paste, apply it both on and around the pimples on your face.


• Take groundnut oil and mix it with an equal amount of lime juice. It has to be freshly squeezed from the lime, not purchased in a bottle. Take this mixture and apply it to your face. Leave it for about fifteen minutes and then wash it off. Daily application helps prevent the formation of blackheads and pimples.


• Take a few drops of tea tree essential oil and apply it to the affected areas with a cotton ball. Don't rub, though, because that will cause the acne to get irritated.


• Take freshly cut garlic and rub it onto the affected area right before going to bed. The smell is strong, so doing it right before bed makes it so it doesn't bother anyone. It dries up the acne completely.


• Mix cornstarch with vinegar so that you get a paste. Plaster the mixture onto the areas that are affected by acne for 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the severity. Using a washcloth and warm water, gently remove the paste. This will get rid of blackheads.


• Combine one egg white with a teaspoon of fresh lemon juice. Apply it to your face like a mask and wait for twenty minutes. Using warm water, rinse the mask. This helps to remove oils from the skin and clear it up.


• Taking a cucumber peel (wet side up), rub it onto your face where the acne is and leave it for the night. Sleep with it there and in the morning, take a shower to clear it off. This is a sure cure for acne.

There are so many homemade remedies to treat and cure acne that people have written entire books on it. However, these are some well known remedies. In the end, having healthy skin requires treating it with respect. Wash it with safe soaps and use masks to get rid of dead skin and oils. Maintaining healthy skin is the best way to treat acne.
