Information on a Home Cure to Prevent New Facial Acne

Acne is an inflammatory skin condition that can become worse when attempting to clear it with commercial cleanser and lotions that contain harsh chemicals. You can, however, clear acne effectively by using a few natural home cures.

Baking Soda

Baking soda is an alkaline substance that exfoliates the skin, helping unclog pores and remove dead skin cells. Massage a mixture of baking soda and water into the skin for 30 seconds, then rinse with water.

Lemon Juice

Lemon juice promotes new cell turnover, which further keeps the pores clean and acne-free. Apply undiluted lemon juice to the skin twice per day.

Egg Whites

Egg white tighten the pores and pull out dirt and impurities from the skin . Apply two whipped egg whites to the skin and allow it to dry. Rinse off after 10 minutes.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar helps kill acne-causing bacteria and flush out the pores. Apply apple cider vinegar using a cotton pad once per day.

Olive Oil

Olive oil hydrates the skin without clogging the pores, which will prevent the skin from overproducing oils. Massage olive oil on the skin for 2 minutes, then lay a steaming cloth over the face. Wipe away excess oil after the cloth cools completely.
