10 Instant Natural Treatments For Pimples by Nobody: 5:03am On Sep 06, 2014
Pimples are a normal skin condition which affects
many people. Pimples are an inflammation of the
skin in which the sebaceous glands (oil glands)
become infected with bacteria, swell up, and fill with
pus. Pimples generally occur on the face, neck, back
and shoulders and though it is not a critical
condition, it can make a person feel miserable due to
their appearance.

There are various ways and methods to get rid of
pimples, some are natural while others toxic (use of
chemical and medicine).

The natural methods are safe and not dangerous for
the skin and are the best and fastest way to get rid of
acne. Also, there are some foods that must be
avoided for removing acne.

These foods are milk, chocolates, sweets, desserts,
cakes, fat and oil. You need to eat vitamins and
minerals rich foods to get rid of acne. Below are
natural methods of getting rid of pimples within a
very short period.

1. Lemon Juice
By applying lemon fresh juice to your skin you can
easily get rid of acne overnight. Take 1 lemon and
squeeze it in a bowl. Dip a clean cotton swab in fresh
lemon juice and apply it to the pimples before going
to bed. In morning, wash your face with lukewarm
water.

2. Orange Peel
Rub the orange peel on the pimple for 2-3 minutes
and leave it overnight. Wash the face gently in the
morning.

3. Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera leaf will also help you in removing acne.
Take an aloe Vera leaf (gel) and wash it with fresh
water then apply it to acne and rub it slowly like 5
minutes. Not only is the aloe soothing, it works as an
anti- inflammatory, decreasing redness and swelling.
It also has antibacterial properties.

4. Applying Egg White
The egg white can remove the acne overnight. Take
an egg separate the yolk of egg and take the white of
egg and apply to the acne before going to bed until
tomorrow. In morning, wash the face with water and
you can see that your acne become dry.

5. Honey
Honey is the best thing for acne. It kills skin bacteria.
Dip a clean cotton swab in honey, put it directly on
the affected area and leave it on for half an hour.
Wash the skin well with lukewarm water.

6. Cucumber
Cucumber is a rich source of potassium and vitamins
such as A, C and E. It also has a cooling and soothing
effect on the skin. Cut one or two fresh cucumbers
into pieces and soak them in water for about an
hour. The nutrients, such as vitamin A, potassium
and chlorophyll will transfer to the water. Strain the
water and drink it, or use the water to wash your
face. You can also make a face mask by grinding one
cucumber. Apply the mask on your face and allow it
to dry for 15 minutes. Wash your skin with warm
water.

7. Banana peel
Banana peels contain something called lutein, an
extremely powerful antioxidant that reduces swelling
and inflammation, and encourages healthy cell
growth. Take the banana peel and rub in a circular
motion all over your face. When you feel as though
you’ve covered all of your face, let it sit for at least 30
minutes before rinsing it off.

8. Garlic
Garlic is an antiviral, antifungal, antiseptic and
antioxidant agent that can help in the fast treatment
of pimples. The sulfur in garlic also promotes quick
healing of pimples. Cut a fresh garlic clove into two
pieces. Rub the garlic on the pimples and leave it for
five minutes before washing the skin with lukewarm
water. Repeat the treatment several times a day.

9. Baking Soda
It is the most powerful method to get rid of pimple
overnight. Baking soda is a good option for all, but
especially those with sensitive skin because it will not
cause any kind of skin irritation. Make a thick paste
by mixing one teaspoon of baking soda with some
water or lemon juice. Apply the paste on the affected
areas and allow it to dry for a few minutes. Wash
your face with warm water and apply a moisturizer.
Repeat the process twice a day for quick results.

10. Steam
Steaming is wonderful for your skin at any time, but
particularly when you have pimples. The steam will
open your pores and allow your skin to breathe. This
helps get rid of oils, dirt and bacteria trapped in the
pores that can cause infection or inflammation. Fill a
large container with hot water and allow the steam to
come in contact with your face for a few minutes.
Rinse your face with lukewarm water and, after
drying, apply an oil-free moisturizer.

Lastly, don’t touch your face (more specifically, your
breakouts) This means don’t itch, scratch, pick, peel,
pop, or rub at your skin. It will help the healing
process go smoother and more efficiently.
