Herbs for Acne

Many people who are suffering from mild to moderate acne have limited financial resources. If you are one of them then why spend your money on over-the-counter acne treatments? There are some common all natural household foods in your kitchen right now that have antibacterial properties. While none of them is really a permanent acne cure, they have been found to be beneficial as acne treatments. For a more complete discussion of your options, go to Acne Redness Cure.

Honey

Acne is caused by bacteria which develop under the skin when the skin pores are clogged by excess oil. Honey has anti-inflammatory properties which can reduce acne redness and irritation, and it has antibacterial properties which attack the bacteria. Mixing honey with other antibacterial foods such as apples or cinnamon into a facial mask has been found to be quite effective for many people. Apply the facial mask at least once a day for at least 10 minutes.

Vitamins, Citric Acid, Oatmeal -

All of these items have different antibacterial properties that are useful in treating acne. Citric acid is found in such items as lemon juice, orange peels, sliced tomato and raw papaya. Vitamin B6, Vitamin A and meal all have anti-acne properties as well. Many people have had success with a facial mask prefabricated from meal blended with milk, or meal blended with rosewater.

Tea Tree Oil -
