Honey is sticky, but is a natural antibiotic. Cinnamon is spicy, but it is anti-bacterial. These two form a fantastic combination to treat your skin. It kills the unwanted bacteria and makes sure it doesn’t go out of hand. All you need to do is mix a teaspoon of cinnamon powder to two tablespoons of honey, and mix well. Then apply evenly on a clean, dry face, and leave it on for about ten to fifteen minutes. It is safe to use honey alone every day, but this mask could be used about once a week, and you will successfully manage to combat the acne bacteria.

Even though people speculate that milk products cause acne, the reality is quite contrary. Milk or yogurt is awesome to even out the skin tone and reduce the acne. It is also quite soothing to the irritated skin. Adding honey to milk or yogurt enhances the goodness of both and works absolute wonders for your skin. A tablespoon of milk/yogurt mixed with a tablespoon of honey is all that your skin needs once a week, or even thrice, if you have the time, to enrich the complexion and make it acne-free. Just make sure you leave on the pack for ten to fifteen minutes and massage in a circular motion before you wash it off. You will see amazing results.

Egg whites boast of great benefits when we talk about applying them on the skin. They help reduce scars and blemishes and also lessen outbreaks. They are full of proteins and vitamins that make sure the pimple problem is reduced. Egg whites are also known to rebuild your skin cells. They soak up all the excess oil and sebum, which means reduced bacteria. Now that you know the magic that egg whites can create for your skin, just whisk up an egg white and apply it to your skin. Leave it on for about twenty minutes. Just make sure you moisturize well once you wash your face and pat it dry, as this pack could dry out your skin.

Papaya works like a miracle for the skin. It is a natural acne solution that helps with dead skin removal and also excess lipids from the skin exterior. The Papain enzyme in the papaya reduces inflammation and prevents the formation of pus. All you need to do is take a chunk of papaya and rub it over your face; you could also mash it up and slather your skin with the pulp. Leave it on for 20 minutes and you will be left with a fresh, glowing skin that will think twice before erupting.

The vitamin C helps the growth of healthy, new cells. The rind has astringent properties and also citric acid that helps to keep your skin in an excellent condition. Just make a paste of the rind. You could add some water to improve the consistency of the paste. Now apply it to your face and wash off after twenty to twenty five minutes. Wash, dry and moisturize. You will notice the glow almost instantly.

A good face scrub, once a week, helps to de-clog the pores and remove the dead cells. This translates into an acne-free skin. You don’t need to invest in expensive scrubs. A mixture of sugar (brown or white) with honey, olive oil or water will do the trick. Just scrub your face with this mixture and your skin will be as soft as ever!

9. A Clean Pillow Case:

There are many reasons you could be acne prone, and while you struggle to pinpoint the right reason, don’t forget to check on your pillowcases. Your cheeks and forehead are in direct contact with the pillowcase for those six to eight hours that you are fast asleep. The pillowcase, dirty from the oils from our hair and the dead skin from our bodies, can very easily transfer the bacteria to our skin. Don’t forget to wash or change your pillowcases at least once in ten days.

10. Touch – Me – Not:

Subconsciously, we touch our faces at least once in two to three minutes. This means a transfer of all the dirt and bacteria from our fingers to our skin. Bad idea! A little self-control might just help in keeping that pretty face pimple-free. Totally worth the try!

A little effort and you will truly never have to care about treating a pimple again.
