Natural ways to get rid of acne...

Good morning everyone! Today as I was getting ready to leave the house, I noticed a zit coming in on my chin....yuck!We all get them, and whether they come in bunches or once a month, they are a pain, literally! We all want clear skin and most of us would do anything to make that happen. Here are 6 natural ways you can do yourself to try and banish your acne for good:

1. HOT WASHCLOTHS
Soak a washcloth in hot water, and put it directly onto your pimples as a compress. This will help to dilate the blood vessels. Afterwards,splash some cold water onto the area and it will help take away skin redness. The cold water also helps to loosen the sebum that has built up in your pores.

2. ICE CUBES

Ice cubes are good to munch on but they will also help reduce your inflammations. Place an ice cube on the affected area for several minutes. They will also help to bring down the swelling in large, cystic pimples.

3. TOOTHPASTE

Toothpaste has a great effect on pimples because of its antibacterial properties! Use a regular toothpaste (stay away from the gels) and place it all over the pimple. This method will cut the time in half that it takes for the pimple to go away.

4. CUCUMBERS

You heard of putting cucumbers over your eyes to help reduce puffiness, right? Well cucumber slices work just as well to reduce the swelling of pimples. Cold slices of cucumber are very soothing on breakouts.

5. ASPIRIN

Aspirin contains beta hydroxy acid which helps unclog pores. Just crush up an aspirin pill and use some water to turn a pill into a topical paste that you can apply to your pimples. Within hours of application, your pimple will be smaller.

6. TEA TREE OIL

Tea tree oil is extracted from the melaleuca tree. It has a very distinctive smell, but it is also pleasant. When applied to a blemish, tea tree oil penetrates the skin and kills bacteria, helping the skin heal more quickly.

Try these remedies at home and see what works for you :)
