Gentlest Home Remedies For Acne Scars

7:12:00 AM
Which home remedies for acne scars actually work? And which acne home remedies are safe for sensitive skin? Here are some of the natural acne scar healing tips we have learned that are the gentlest and safest for sensitive skin.
Having acne is a terrible experience, and even worse are the scars that are left on your face long after the acne has healed. It can take many months for acne scars to disappear, and there are some things you can do to speed up the healing process.
Many people with sensitive skin cannot use traditional acne scar treatments such as dermabrasion or collagen injections, which are invasive and can cause irritation, rashes and other side effects.
Homemade acne treatments can be very effective, however for best results we recommend that you create a comprehensive, whole body acne treatment program which will help you clear out the root causes of your acne so that you can prevent your skin from developing more acne scars.
If you have very severe acne, you may want to consult a qualified natural health practitioner that can assist you with creating the dietary and lifestyle changes that will clear your skin and help your body heal the acne scars. They can also guide you to find acne scar treatments that are effective even for people with sensitive skin.

Tips for Using Acne Home Remedies
1. Skin test FIRST - Even the gentlest acne home remedy might not work for YOUR sensitive skin, so please be sure to do a skin test FIRST on the back of your arm or the inside of your ear, to see if these home remedies for acne scars will work for your skin.
2. Be consistent - choose a treatment, first doing a skin test as I have suggested, and if your sensitive skin does not react to the treatment, then use it faithfully for at least a week or two. See how your face looks and feels before making a final decision.
3. Find a good daily routine for your skin - Using gentle, fragrance free and hypoallergenic products will help you to cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin without triggering more acne outbreaks.
4. Treat your WHOLE body - home remedies for acne scars are not just something you dab on your pimples. You need to maximize your body's miraculous innate healing and rejuvenating capabilities by modifying your diet and lifestyle. I know, that's not so easy especially in today's busy world! In order to clear your skin, you need to drink enough pure water, exercise, eat fresh, whole foods, and eliminate foods and drinks that trigger acne outbreaks.

Simplest Acne Scar Home Remedies
Many acne home remedies also work for helping acne scars to heal. Here are a few of the most popular ones, which you can find in your kitchen or at the health food store!
Ice cubes calm the inflammation, reduce the size of pimples and reduce scarring. After icing, let your face air dry.
Baking soda and water, used as a facial mask can both clear acne outbreaks and reduce scarring.
Lemon or lime juice acts as a skin lightener and will lighten the scars. You can also use this to treat acne outbreaks.
Ground organic orange peel and water can reduce acne outbreaks and help the skin heal.
Tomato and cucumber slices, applied to your face regularly will help clear up acne and reduce scarring.
Olive oil can reduce the visibility of your acne scars and help to soften them.
Green tea contains many potent antioxidants which help the skin to heal and rejuvenate.
Lavender essential oil can help acne outbreaks to heal and also will help the scars to disappear.
Vitamin E helps the skin to heal from scarring. You can apply a little to your acne scars, and also take internally.
Vitamin C also helps the skin to rejuvenate and to produce more collagen. Some facial products with Vitamin C can cause burning, so choose a good hypoallergenic product line that works for sensitive skin.

A Comprehensive Home Facial Treatment for Acne Scar Healing
If you want to do a more comprehensive treatment program for your acne with natural ingredients, this simple and very affordable program will clean your skin, open your pores, moisturize and tone your skin and reduce irritation and acne inflammations.
* Steam your face over a pan of hot water for one to three minutes with a towel over your head. For best results, do this morning and night.
* Apply a paste of baking soda mixed with a little water to your face. Leave on for one to three minutes.
* Rinse with cool water.
* Gently pat your skin dry, then wait a few minutes until your face is completely dry.
* Apply a small amount of aloe vera gel, mixed with tea tree oil. If the tea tree oil is too intense for your sensitive skin, try lavender oil. If that doesn't work, simply use the aloe gel by itself.

These home remedies for acne scars are just the beginning. To completely clear up your skin, consider eating a more natural diet and drinking an abundance of pure, clean water. Recent research suggests that this can reduce your acne by 50% or more! Foods that have been known to cause acne outbreaks include processed foods, sugar, caffeine, and dairy products. It IS possible to completely clear up your acne and to heal your acne scars naturally!By: MRochell

How To Get Rid Of Pimples Fast - Clear Your Pimples With 7 Simple Tips

8:38:00 AM
Do you suffer from mild to moderate acne and want to know how to get rid of pimples fast? Pimple breakouts are annoying and sometimes embarrassing as they always seem to occur when you have something important planned. I suffered acne as a teenager but was fortunate as it was only mild. I used sulfur soap and sulfur based cream as a treatment and it cleared quickly leaving me pimple and scar free. Clear your pimples with 7 simple tips:
1. To clear your pimples, first of all keep your face clean. Aim to wash it at least twice a day. Only use a gentle soap, I used sulphur soap which is available over the counter but if you have oily skin it is better to use a soap containing benzoyl peroxide. Do not use coarse sponges, brushes or anything similar to wash your face. Avoid over washing as it will stimulate the sebaceous glands causing them to create more sebum and thereby increase breakouts of pimples.
2. Don't burst those pimples, this is probably one of the most important actions to stop. Bursting pimples will not only result in further breakouts, but it will also increases the chances of permanent scaring on your face.
3. Increase your intake of green vegetables, fruit, vegetable juices and food that is rich in zinc. It has been proved that these foods are not only good for you health but are also good for the skin. Pimples can be caused by eating too much oily or spicy foods and dairy products can also cause problems as they contain hormones. It is therefore advisable to cut down these foods.
4. Drink plenty of water, at least 8 glasses a day. This is especially important if you are also drinking coffee and alcohol as these type of fluids tend to dehydrate us. Water is good for the skin and will help in preventing pimples forming by keeping the skin hydrated and also by helping the liver to cleanse toxins from our body. Adding the juice of half a lemon to a glass of water daily has also been effective in clearing pimples for some people.
5. Do not wear any make up or cosmetics as they tend to block the pores. If you really have to wear make because of your job or for a night out, try to use water based products where possible. Always take any make up off at night and use a gentle cleanser on your face.
6. Take up some form of moderate exercise. Exercise will help your blood to circulate blood properly and will also help to remove toxins from your body.
7. Get out in the sun, a small amount of exposure to the sun is good for curing pimples. It has been proven that sunlight kills the bacteria that causes acne and skin conditions due to its antibacterial properties and other effects. Excessive exposure to the sun causes skin damage, therefore do not spend too long in the sun and use protection that is suitable for acne. A way of getting the beneficial effects of the sun without over exposure is to use one of the new acne blue light therapy lamps that operate in a safe ultraviolet range that does not damage the skin.
The above 7 simple tips are only brief but if used will help to clear your pimples and improve the overall health of your skin.

Homemade Face Mask for Pores - You Can Easily Get Them Closed!

2:35:00 PM
Homemade face masks for pores are just the thing you need to effectively improve the quality of your skin and get rid of those large pores for good. Large facial pores are not only ugly and unattractive, they are also visible proof that the skin is unhealthy and not getting as much nutrition as it should be.
Facial pores are not bad in themselves as they are a normal component of the structure of our skin and are necessary for its optimal function. They act as ventilation outlets for the skin and are also passageways for the oily substance 'sebum' which lubricates and protects the skin's surface.
A problem only arises with these pores when they begin to have an abnormally enlarged appearance and give the face quite an unattractive look. The enlargement of these pores are usually more common in adolescents than in adults and also in women than men, and this is often as a result of hormonal changes.

Large facial pores could also kickstart other skin disorders such as acne, pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and so on. Homemade face masks are great as they are effective in reducing the size of facial pores to normal and thus preventing these skin problems.
While there are many commercial and synthetic products available to treat large pores, homemade face masks for pores often present a healthier, less risky choice. Less risky because they are free of unknown chemicals and dangerous additives that may sometimes be present in synthetic skin care products.
Some of the most common homemade remedies for large pores involve the use of hot water, ice, eggs, and lemons.
To use hot water; pour some boiled, steaming water in a large, shallow bowl and place your face some inches above it as to allow the steam to reach your facial skin. Leave your face in this position for about 20 - 30 seconds at a stretch. Repeat this procedure three to five times in one session, and about two to three sessions every week. The steam actually clears the accumulated sebum within the pores, allowing them to close and shrink in size.
The freezing effect of ice can also be used to diminish the size of large pores as the low temperature causes the skin to contract thus closing the pores. Rub the ice gently on the affected area for 20 - 30 seconds at a stretch. Repeat regularly for best results.
Another homemade face mask for pores uses egg whites and lemon juice. Whisk one egg white and a teaspoon of lemon juice to a foam; apply on to the face and leave to set for about fifteen minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water. This facial results in the natural tightening of the skin, which in turn reduces the pores; use this remedy at least twice a week for quick results.-

Jawline Acne Cause - The Causes of Jawline Acne and Remedies

10:25:00 AM
There are no fixed jawline acne causes which normally affect persons in their adulthood and not in the adolescent years of their life. This problem comes as a surprise to most people who thought that their problems of pimples and acne are over with their teenage days and that they could now forget about skin problems.

Jawline acne appears on the jaw line, cheeks, chest, back and buttocks of the person, mostly in women who are past their teens. Unlike the acne in the teenagers, this is a painful problem and has many factors contributing to it. Jawline acne is also deeply embedded in the tissue and not like the acne that bothered the teenager and was only on the surface of the skin. This is a deep lying one and leaves scars that are much deeper too. This is referred to as cystic acne and if not treated immediately can leave terrible deep lying scars which will take a lot of invasive methods to get rid of.

Jawline acne cause in adults and especially in women is because of hormonal problems and hormonal inactivity. This could be brought on by consuming too much of dairy products which contain a lot of hormones. If the jaw line acne cause is diagnosed because of hormonal inactivity, then taking a course of pills for birth control would help it. On the other hand if dairy products are the culprit it is better to avoid them for a while and see if the acne subsides.

Sometimes certain cosmetics can bring this on, so it is better to check them out and see what the reason could be. Jaw line acne cause is sometimes a moisturizer that is too rich and greasy and clogs the pores on the face. Hair sprays and other hair products that are used too close to the face are another cause of Jaw line acne as they clog the pores and cause acne eruptions. Using oil on the hair and especially when it falls over the face for some women is another cause of clogged pores which bring on jawline acne. The base and pancake make up which are sometimes used by women should be avoided if there is a tendency for acne. It is best to avoid using stuff on the face which can bring on the problem of jawline acne and more so when one is prone to it.

Unlike other forms of acne the jaw line acne is not easy to treat and needs more aggressive treatment. The doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with external ointments and medications for this problem.

In addition to eating fresh fruits to supply your skin with collagen building vitamin C, you can also smear them onto your face for gentle acid exfoliation.
