Say Good-bye to Acne with these Effective Home Remedies

By Andreia Alves


No matter what age you are, acne can be embarrassing--especially when it happens during adult years. After all, you may have assumed you would leave it behind with your teen years, and then you find these red and dark marks returning years later. Fortunately, there are more than enough home remedies for acne, and we will talk about some of them in this article.

Apple cider vinegar is a great natural remedy for treating acne and other conditions. It is great for boosting your immune system and can be used to treat infections and inflammations. This remedy is safe for internal and external use and you will see good results either way. You will want to dilute it, though, as it has a strong taste and can be harsh against the skin if it's not diluted. You will want to look for raw, organic cider vinegar. Then simply spot treat the places where you have acne pimples. Drinking apple cider vinegar mixed with water several times a day will increase the effectiveness. You can also use it on salad dressings. As well as being used as an effective acne treatment, apple cider vinegar helps to detoxify the whole body.

You can also treat your acne with garlic, a natural remedy that works for many conditions. Garlic's anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, and anti-bacterial properties make it one of the best natural treatments for acne. You can crush garlic cloves into a pulp using a garlic press or mortar and pestle, and apply the mixture to your face.

If you leave it on too long it can cause irritation, though, so remove after no more than five minutes. If you do this daily, you may very well find your acne soon disappears. Taking a garlic supplement will help this process and will allow the garlic to work on you internally as well.
