How to Get rid of a Blemish Overnight

If tomorrow is picture day or your first day on a new job, you want clear skin. Problem is, you have a blemish that is about to surface. Follow this highly organic way to get rid of it overnight.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Lemon
• Garlic

1. No, you are not making Greek food. You are getting rid of the bacteria on your skin. Cut a slice of lemon and prepare a fresh clove of garlic by taking off the skin and cutting the clove in half.

2. Cleanse your skin with a gentle cleanser such a Cetaphil. Squeeze the slice of lemon into your palm and pat on your face (especially on the blemish or active area).

3. Rinse your face. Now, take the half clove (this is a fresh clove with juice) and rub the clove on the blemish, squeezing the juice onto the area. Wait a minute. You will feel tingling.

4. After about a minute (you may wait longer, depending on the sensitivity of your skin) and up to five minutes, rinse your face with luke warm water.

5. Know that garlic is an antioxidant with huge quantities of Vitamin C. These nutrients will kill off the bacteria surrounding the blemish.

6. Wake up and notice the difference in your skin. You may smell like a garden, but your face will be free of bacteria.

Tips & Warnings

• If you have sensitive skin, sample this technique by watering out the lemon with half lemon consistency, half water. Rub the garlic on your blemish for less than a minute.
