Why spend so much money on acne products when there are cheap and convenient remedies that can treat acne?
Before I begin telling you some acne remedies, let’s take a look at simple things that complement our acne remedies.
Vitamins and water are very important. But do not overdose on Vitamins, and be sure to drink at least 6 – 8 glasses of water per day! This will work hand-in-hand with the following cheap and effective remedies for acne:
- Wash your face twice a day with a non-scented glycerin soap. Other soaps including acne soaps may be too harsh and ultimately worsen your acne. You can even wash your face without soap, but if you have oily skin, go ahead and use a non-scented glycerin bar.
- After you’ve cleansed your face, dab some witch hazel on your breakouts using cotton balls. Witch Hazel is less likely to cause skin irritation or sensitivity, and it acts as an astringent to deep clean the face, while minimizing the size of skin pores and reducing swelling and redness.
- Apply moisturizer.
- Do a clay facial mask OR an egg facial mask once a week. To make an egg facial mask, separate the egg white from the yolk. Whip the egg white in a bowl until it becomes fluffy. It doesn’t have to be entirely fluffy – just use a fork to whip it. If you have oily skin, you can add lime or lemon juice to the egg white. (Lime/lemon juice will also limit the ‘eggy’ smell). Apply the egg white on your face; wait until it dries and hardens. This may take 15 – 30 minutes. Wash egg white off face with lukewarm water and pat dry.
