Cotton Ball Soaked In Vinegar

Dip a cotton ball in vinegar. Wipe your face with the soaked cotton. Using your fingers, massage your face in upwards circular motion, for two minutes. The vinegar will work on the bacteria, thereby killing them. This process will cleanse the pores as well. Rinse your face with cold water thereafter. Make sure that you do not use too much of vinegar, as an overdose may cause skin irritation.

Oatmeal

An effective solution for oily skin, affected by acne, is oatmeal mask. Mashed oatmeal works as a scrub, wiping out excess oil from your face. While scrubbing your face with the mashed oatmeal, the pores may get opened. In order to contract them, you can apply oatmeal paste and rinse your face with cold water.

Honey With ApplesPeel off the skin of a ripe apple. Grate the fruit and mix it with one teaspoon of honey. Apply the paste on your face. Leave it for 15-20 minutes on the face. Wash it off with warm water. Repeat this process twice a week and look out for positive changes on your face!

Tea Tree Oil

Apart from fruits and vegetables, a few selected oils also work as proven solutions for acne. Tea tree oil acts as an effective remedy to make your skin free of acne. It is especially used to cure sudden outbursts of acne. Rub few drops of tea tree oil on the affected areas. Leave it for 15 minutes, before rinsing off with water. By treating your skin this way, you will definitely see the difference within a few days.

Apply egg white on the affected areas and leave it overnight. This will remove skin blemishes. Continue doing this process every night, for a week. For best results, use a combination of egg white and lemon juice. Mix the white portion of an egg with 3/4 teaspoon of lemon juice. Rub the mixture on the acne. You may either leave it overnight or rinse it off with water after half an hour.

Mashed Banana

Take out the pulp of half banana and MASH it well, with your hand. In a small bowl, mix the mashed banana pulp with one tablespoon of honey. Mix it well. Now, add sour cream to the mixture and blend it thoroughly, to form a paste. Apply the paste on your face and leave it until it is completely dry. Wash off with water, thoroughly. * Consume a diet rich in Zinc, Vitamin A and Vitamin B6. * Stay away from fried foods, especially if you have an oily skin. This applies to other skin types as well. * Avoid processed foods, because they constitute one of the reasons for the onset of acne.
