Instant Acne Remedies

By Pattrick Peterson


Acne has become a very common problem among people, it mostly occurs in the adolescent population however common in adults too. Acne can be caused due to various reasons such as hormonal imbalance, stress or tension levels, use of improper cosmetics, unhealthy eating habits, exposure to pollution and dirt are adding factors.

Acne not only affects the outward appearance but also becomes a factor in lowering confidence of a person. Specifically it becomes a cause of distress when in social gathering and the appearance is in bad shape due to acne. In such a situation one might always think of instant remedies overnight! Though it seems to be a little impossible idea, yet it is not impossible. Here are a few instant acne remedies which will help you to get rid of it quickly.

An ice pack treatment can be taken by keeping the ice in thin cotton and dabbing it over your acne for 15 to 20 minutes. This process can be repeated every one hour till we see the results and it is sure of watching acne vanishing gradually in few hours.

Washing face with a mild facial cleanser twice a day or by splashing mere plain water 4 or 5 times per day will also cure acne. Even a medicated face wash or soap can be used. Hydration proves to be of great use, drinking plenty of water helps in detoxifying the blood which leads to proper circulation of blood, and inclusion of fresh fruits and vegetables brings drastic changes in skin conditions, thereby curing acne sooner. A mixture of honey and cinnamon applied on acne is also of great help in treating the acne quickly. A less concentration of lemon juice applied over acne with the help of cotton and allowed to be on it for 10 to 15 minutes also brings quick results.

Aloe vera also helps in bringing relief from inflammation and irritation caused by acne. Application of its pulp for about 15 to 20 minutes helps in soothing the skin and curing the inflammation very soon. Remember to wash up the face clean and dry before applying any of the above suggested remedies to make sure you do not promote any adverse microbial activity, also keep a check and do not over wash to avoid compensatory secretion of oils. Last but not the least, avoid touching the affected area as our hands are carriers of bacteria which might be deposited on the face every time you touch it leading to increased acne condition.
