I'm not a doctor or anything like that :( , but I love writing about how to have beautiful, clear skin. I put a ton of time and research into everything I write, so I really hope you'll enjoy reading my articles!!
I absolutely love using tea tree oil for acne! It’s one of the most effective natural acne treatments out there.
Not familiar with this little miracle oil? Here’s a little background info:
Tea tree oil is extracted from the Australian narrow-leaved tea tree (melaleuca alternifolia).
The Australian Aborigines were the first people to realize the benefits of the tea tree…
They chewed the leaves to relieve headaches and used the plant for other medicinal purposes.
Does apple cider vinegar (ACV) really help acne? Since thousands of years ago, countless people throughout the world have used apple cider vinegar for acne – and for numerous other illnesses.
It was used in ancient Egypt, and as far back as 3000 BC. Even Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, spoke of the value of this simple product.
So, can we use apple cider vinegar for acne treatment? Or is it better to leave it next to the ketchup and mustard at the grocery store? Here are the facts.
Have you ever tried using honey for acne? Does this Winnie-the-Pooh-style acne treatment really work? The short answer is, yes!
Since ancient times people have used honey for acne and a host of other ailments. This little miracle food is one of mother nature’s best kept secrets.
Queen Cleopatra of ancient Egypt took a daily beauty bath in a tub of milk and honey. She new about honey’s cosmetic benefits!
Honey is pretty amazing. It can treat wounds, burns, ulcers, boost your immune system, and a lot more. It’s full of essential ingredients, vitamins, and minerals.
Honey is an incredibly strong antibiotic, killing bacteria in some cases that modern medicine can’t even handle, such as the bacteria found in chronic wounds. It’s grate for allergies, filled with antioxidants, and it’s even anti-inflammatory. Wow, right?
Using aloe vera for acne is a trick my grandmother taught me. She always kept a few potted aloe Vera plants around her house, and for good reason…
Aloe vera is not only great for treating acne, it can treat burns, help wounds heal faster, protect skin from the sun, and much more. It’s actually been used as an herbal medicine since the first century A.D!
Its leaves contain a thick clear pulp which can be applied topically or taken as a dietary supplement.
Acne No More is a unique step-by-step guide on how to get rid of acne holistically. “Holistic” treatments focus on treating the whole body, instead of only treating the symptoms of acne – like the pimples, bacteria, inflammation, clogged pores and irritation.
The author, Mike Walden, suffered from acne for 13 years. He was one of those acne victims who tried everything, but nothing worked. So, he spent 4 years and thousands of dollars researching and developing a step-by-step method for treating acne.
The goal of his system is to treat acne from the inside out, giving you lasting clear skin. If you only treat the visible symptoms of acne (pimples, redness, etc.), you aren’t really treating the underlying cause.
You may see results from using typical acne treatments (like creams, or antibiotics), but because you aren’t treating the cause, it’s likely that your acne “symptoms” will return.
