Clear Acne With Natural Home Remedies
Acne is one of the most common skin disorders in the world, affecting an estimated 85% of people at some stage in their lives.
Pimples are one thing that is on the list of skin issues of many women.
The problem is not limited to women, men and some adolescents are also sufferers.
Conventional acne medications can be expensive and may have unpleasant side effects such as dryness, redness, and irritation.
This has caused a lot of people to look at how to treat acne naturally at home.

You’ll Need:
- 100 gms fresh mint leaves
- 1 liter of water
- 1 tsp of camphor

This solution is perfect for the treatment of the skin that is stubborn and prone to pimples.

Oily skins are often an easier prey to sprout pimples, often starting with blackheads and whiteheads, and then becoming stubborn, pus-filled pimples.
Cucumber Ice
You’ll Need:
- 1 Cucumber
- Take 1 cucumber and peel the outer skin and cut them in small cubes.
- Put them in a blender and make a puree.
- Do not add extra water just make the cucumber paste.
- Now place them in an ice tray and freeze it.
- Once it is frozen all you need to do is take 1 ice cube and put it directly on your active acne.
- If you have sensitive skin you can wrap it in a cotton cloth and put on your acne.
- Repeat this 2-3 times in a day for best results.
Washing your face with cucumber water every day is a perfect way to keep blemishes and freckles at bay.
Cucumber’s excellent anti-inflammatory properties can help soothe the skin and give it a clean, bleach-free complexion.
Cucumber is also particularly helpful to those with irritated, acne-prone skin.
Cucumber is 96% water, making it a moisturizing addition to DIY skincare and usually safe for sensitive skin due to lack of rough, potentially irritating ingredients.
Mint
You’ll Need:
- Hand full fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons of oats
- 2 tablespoons full-fat curd
- Add about 2 tablespoons of finely chopped fresh mint and 2 tablespoons of curd and oatmeal to help keep the acne clear.
- Add everything to a blender to make a smooth paste and add it to your face.
- Let it dry for ten minutes, then rinse off with cool water.
Mint helps to de-clog the pores and helps to prevent bacterial infections.
Thanks to its antibacterial properties, curd serves as a gentle natural cleanser.
Perhaps better, yogurt containing probiotics is recommended for the treatment of skin disorders, like acne.
You may also incorporate other ingredients to improve the benefits of the mask.
Try honey, for example, which gently exfoliates and helps close pores.
How to Prevent Pimples?
Wash your face
To help prevent pimples, it is necessary to remove excess oil, dirt, and sweat daily.
Washing your face more than twice a day will make acne worse.
Don’t wash your face with harsh, dry skin cleansers.
Try to use an alcohol-free cleaning agent.
Know your skin type
Anyone can get pimples, no matter what kind of skin they have.
The oily skin is the most pulp-prone.
It’s caused by the sebaceous glands of your skin that contain too much oily sebum.
Knowing your skin type will help you select the best skincare items for your skin.
For example, if your skin is oily, choose non-comedogenic products that are formulated not to obstruct pores.
If you wear glasses or sunglasses, make sure you clean them regularly to prevent the oil from clogging the pores around your eyes and nose.
Say No to Exfoliating
If you have active acne stop using face scrubs for a while till the acne heals.
Do not wipe your face with cloth pads or washcloths.
Scrubbing already irritated skin induces more inflammation and exacerbates pimples or acne breakups.
Keep your facial accessories clean
If you’re using makeup brushes, beauty blenders, facial cleaning brushes, make sure to keep them clean.
Using unclean accessories that contain germs can cause acne and pimples.
Wash them thoroughly for every use.
