icekream: Acne, otherwise known as pimples can sometimes get irritating. Have you tried some creams, chemicals nd facial washes nd all to no avail? Well, here are some natural tips to cure them.
1. Lemon
Another quick way to get rid of pimples is the use of lemon juice, which is rich in vitamin C. Lemon juice helps pimples dry up faster. Be sure to use fresh lemon juice and not bottled juice, which has preservatives. There are a couple of ways to apply this remedy.
*.Dip a clean cotton swab in fresh lemon juice and apply it to the pimples before going to bed.
*.You can also make a paste by mixing one tablespoon of lemon juice with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder and put it on the pimples overnight. In the morning, wash the skin well with lukewarm water. However, this particular remedy is not suitable for those with sensitive skin.
2. Honey
Honey is a source of natural antibiotics that can speed up the healing process, as well as help prevent infections.
1.Dip and clean cotton swab in honey, put it directly on the affected area and leave it on for half an hour.
2.Wash the skin well with lukewarm water.
Another option is to mix honey and cinnamon together to make a paste and applying it over the pimples before going to bed. In the morning, there will be less inflammation or swelling. Wash the skin well with cold water.
3. Toothpaste
The toothpaste that you use every morning to clean your teeth also can be used to treat pimples quickly. It is most effective when used following the ice remedy. You must use white toothpaste; avoid using gel toothpastes lyk close up red hot cos they contain sodium lauryl sulphate.
1.Apply some white toothpaste over the affected skin area before going to bed.
2.In the morning, wash your face with water and you will see a significant improvement in the swelling.
If you wish, you can repeat the process in the daytime also. Just make sure the toothpaste remains on the pimples for at least half an hour.
4. 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.
1.Fill a large container with hot water and allow the steam to come in contact with your face for a few minutes.
2.Rinse your face with lukewarm water and, after drying, apply an oil-free moisturizer.
This treatment will also give your complexion a lovely glow.
5. 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.
1.Cut a fresh garlic clove into two pieces.
2.Rub the garlic on the pimples and leave it for five minutes before washing the skin with lukewarm water.
3.Repeat the treatment several times a day.
Eating one raw garlic clove daily can also help purify your blood. But do not to eat too much raw garlic as it can upset the stomach.
6. Tomatoes. They’re astringent and superbly high in antioxidants. There are even stories dotting the internet of how tomato facial masks have helped heal acne scars (I don’t know anything about this first hand, though, so grain of salt).
If you have an unsightly eruption and an extra tomato handy, cut it open and rub some of the juice on the offensive area once or twice a day. (Again, a reminder, while it may be okay to use straight tomato juice all OVER your face once a week or so, excessive use could cause some icky dryness, so stick to just treating your single pimples with this idea. Otherwise, dilute, dilute, dilute. And use sparingly.)
I hope it helps. Drop any other useful one you've got to share

Let me share with you what I have been using to both treat and cure pimples for several people:

cucumber scrub

1. Cut the cucumber into two with a knife
2. Scrub your face with the cut cucumber for 2 to 3 minutes
3. Continue cutting from same and scrubbing the face for the number of times you like
4. Allow the wetness to dry off then clean of the seeds from your face.

It is so natural and effective and it works all the time.

Try washing your face thoroughly morning and night with soap and sponge and watch and see the result.In less than two weeks your face will be as a baby's own.

sponge That's wrong. using sponge on your face/ excessive scrubbing is a major cause of pimples.

Personally, i attribute acne n eczma 2 poor hygiene. If some1 maintains gud hygiene - bathing regularly, washing ur face wt soap n warm water, washing ur hands regularly, using clean handkerchieves, etc pimple ll hav no room in their body. I observed wt dismay dat many guys dont bath up 2 twice a day. Even gals. They ll always use body spray instead of bathing. They bath only when they wan 2 go out.

shut your trap and don't say what u don't know.. go online and do some bit googling and u will know d truth.. scientist and dermatologist have proven beyond reasonable doubt that there is no connection between what u eat and a pimple that pops up later.. all this believe about u eating groundnut, chocolate, etc will give u pimples r just myth.. pimples is hormonal it is caused by overactive sebaceous glands which secrets excess oil and when this oils mix with dead cells in the face it blocks the pores of the face which makes pimples to pop up. pimples appears as a result of blocked pores.. guy go do your homework am tired of typing

Re: Some Effective Ways To Treat Pimples Naturally by dejino007: 3:27pm On Sep 16, 2014
home remedies r not that effective. visit a dermatologist for the treatment of your acne and if u cant depending on the seriousness of your acne u can visit a local pharmacist with good reputation and ask them for OTC medications u can use for your acne. benzolyn peroxide, sacylic acid, sulphur and oral antibiotics r good for treating pimples. and one thing acne victims should know is that there is no miracle cream that can cure pimples overnight.. acne treatment requires consistency and patience.. usually dermatologist says any acne treatments takes up to 4-8 weeks before you can see improvements.. mine is starting to clear up a lil bit.. I use neo medrol with doxycycline to treat mine
