Home remedies for acne

Recently, I ran across a spam site for acne treatments and got busted.  The original version of this post contained the link to the fraudulent site.  I was notified of this by a reader, removed the link, and I was very thankful for the help.  I struggled with what to do with this post but have decided to leave up the advice as it seems legitimate.  I hope it helps.

  • Wash your face twice daily with a mild soap. Baby soap is perfect.
  • Don’t wear oil based makeup.
  • Try using benzyl peroxide
  • Use a combination of distilled water and sea salt to wash your face, then rub it with lemon juice and then wash again with pure glycerin.

Try some of these and see if they work for you. The key is to find what will work for you.

    About 3 months I had some problems with acne, which is really unusual for me because I have really dry skin. I think it was from crazy hormones. It is really hard for me to get rid of acne without drying out my skin and causing it to peel. Fortunately my skin is ok now, but the sea salt remedy looks worth trying. Maybe that would be easier on your face.

    I didn’t have bad acne, but when a pimple goes away it leaves an ugly scar behind, so when you looked at my face it had some pimples but it was covered in black scars, and i am dark skinned so it was really obvious. and one day i used pure CITRIC ACID, the white crytsals, and just mixed it with little water until it makes a thick paste. the first time i put it felt like my face was burning but i said no pain no gain, but then it never hurt. It got rid of almost all my acne scars and your skin is clean, no pimples whatsoeverrrrrr, i tried everyything but this is the thing to go , and i also use lemon. You gotta give it a try.
