Acne natural treatment

Acne is either age related or caused by dead skin cells that refuse to shed and clog pores, thereby not allowing the skin to breathe freely. Depending on your age and hygiene levels, you can judge which category you fall under. The best solution for this problem is exfoliation.


Dampen the body and use sugar and oil with a pasty consistency to scrub the affected area. Wash off with mild herbal soap and warm water. The soap must also be applied and scrubbed thoroughly.


Scrubbing provides fresh, clean and glowing skin, and open pores that help your body to pump out toxins more effectively. The pumped up blood circulation also helps tremendously in reducing the oiliness of skin which leads to acne.

To keep acne at bay, make a concoction of dried and ground orange peels and yogurt and apply this one the face. Leave on for about 30 minutes, or till it dries, and then wash with water. This will rejuvenate your skin and also help fight acne. If you add a few drops of lime juice to this mix, it will help in disinfecting your skin as well. It is always useful to follow these routines for at least a month before you see concrete results. You must also try to eat fiber-rich foods, as these help clear up the skin considerably.
