Reducing Acne the Natural Way

Reducing acne naturally is one of the best and easiest things that you can do if you've been inflicted with this troublesome disease. If you've got acne then you'll know that there is only so much that you can do. There are lots of factors involved with acne and you cannot control all of them. However there are options out there that do and can work so it's important that you give them a go. Remember that the alternative (potentially) is to get acne scarring which is much worse as it lasts for a very long time. Here are some acne reduction steps that you can use for very little or no cost.

1) Washing

You've probably heard this one before but that's just because it's so darn important. If you've got acne then you need to keep your face and your zits clean. Washing them twice a day with a gentle cloth and natural soap will mean that you are much better off. Washing gets rid of the nasty toxins and other things that help to make acne pimples go down much faster. Remember to use a natural soap that's not very harsh in order to get the best benefits and not irritate your skin further.

2) Intense Heat

This technique actually works very well. Either use a cloth or steam. With the cloth technique, pour boiling water over the cloth and then press that onto your face. This helps to enlarge the pimple and get all the nastiness out. You can also steam your face with a boiling kettle however be VERY careful as steam causes sever burns.

3) Apply a nice Oil

After you've done the intense heat bit it's time to jump on the opportunity to remove the acne. I like to use tea tree oil however you can also use other oils like lavender and mint. Apply the oil directly via cotton bud or finger to the acne pimple. As I said, this is especially good straight after you've steamed or applied intense heat. It does sting a little however the sensation goes way after a few seconds. If you apply something like lavender, you'll feel pretty darn refreshed as well.

Acne is a pain, everyone knows that. You may have it worse then others. It can be tempting to skip treatments however it's important that you don't. Remember that the alternative is acne scars for much much longer and that's not something you want at all. Do the treatments and you'll be amazed at what's possible.
