Home Remedies for Acne that Have Proven to Be Effective Over the Years
Finding the best home remedies for acne can involve doing some research and experimentation. When you're testing out various remedies for acne, make sure you do so one remedy at a time. This way, you'll be able to tell which remedy works once you see improvements on your acne. Let's take a look at some home remedies that people have used over the years to treat their acne.

You may have heard of people using healing types of clay on their faces for various purposes. You can refresh and detoxify your skin with clay facial treatments, which you can have done in a spa or at home. Bentonite clay and French green clay are two of the kinds of clay that can be very beneficial to the skin and help you clear up acne. These clays can be purchased online or from health food stores. While these two clays can be used anytime, they're especially beneficial if you have an acne problem. Twice a week, do a facial mask using healing clay. It won't be long until you see an improvement on your skin. You'll observe that your pimples are fewer and not only that, your skin is looking younger as well. A variety of ailments can be treated by garlic, a widely used home remedy. For acne, garlic can be directly applied to the skin. Garlic has anti-bacterial properties. Mashed up garlic is best used for treating acne. You can use a food grinder or a mortar and pestle to mash up the garlic. You can apply the mashed up garlic where you have acne and you'll need to leave this on there for a few minutes. The only downside is that it has a strong odor, so you'll have to wash it off thoroughly.

Apple cider vinegar is one of those home remedies that's recommended for all kinds of health issues. If you have acne, you can use apple cider vinegar as a natural treatment. You should get raw and organic apple cider vinegar, which is not hard to find and not too expensive. It's important that you use apple cider vinegar that's been diluted with water. This is because the concentrated form of vinegar can be very harsh on the skin, so you'll want to dilute 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water and use that. Aside from applying it externally, it can also be beneficial to consume apple cider vinegar internally. It's believed that your body's pH balance will be restored to normal levels if you take 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar two times a day. Try using some of these natural remedies and it's possible that one of them will be able to help you get your acne under control. Acne can be stubborn, so don't expect your acne problem to go away overnight. That said, some people report that tea tree oil works quickly in treating acne. And lastly, you also need to eat better and sleep well, as doing so will help your body maintain its balance.
