Effective Homemade Acne Treatments

Any article on homemade acne treatments must first include a short piece on preventative approaches. Acne breakouts are real and require treatment. But please remember this: you can prevent acne from appearing on your face if you know how. So, let me briefly discuss prevention before we move on to homemade acne treatments.

I'm 99% sure that your acne is caused by your eating habits. If it isn't being caused completely by your diet, then I'm also 99% sure that what you eat is making mild acne condition even worse. If you are tired of your acne and want ot get rid of it forever, then you need to do a detox diet until your acne is dramatically reduced or gone completely, and then re-introduce one-by-one the foods you like until your acne returns. You need to avoid these foods that aggravate or cause you acne until you come out of puberty. You can learn how to do a detox diet by signing up for my newsletter.

So, while you are working on eliminating your acne the right way, we have to deal with the acne that is already on your face. There are homemade acne treatments that can help you do this.

Never Use This Homemade Remedy

Alcohol should not be included in your toolkit of homemade acne treatments. It dries the skin and kills good bacteria as well as all the bad acne-causing bacteria. You are better off washing your face two to three times a day with a mild soap. In between washing your face make every effort not to touch your face with your hands. Decreasing the oiliness of your face will be better achieved by modifying your diet.

Oatmeal

The most well-known and effective of the homemade acne treatments is the oatmeal mask. This works so well because it absorbs the oil on your face into the oatmeal as it dries. However, if you follow my diet suggestions there shouldn't be any excess oil on your face to begin with.

Here is how to make and use the acne remedy:

• Make a paste with oatmeal and water
  
• Apply the paste to the face and leave it there for 20 to 30 minutes
  
• Remove the paste and rinse with cold water
  
• Do this two times a day
