Acne Free Home Treatment - 6 Cures From Your Cupboard

Acne medications can be expensive. The monthly cost for treating acne with an over the counter medication starts at about $5, but it can be more than $100 depending on which medications you use. If you use a prescription to treat your acne, the cost could be hundreds of dollars. Maintenance is a factor too. Once you start using a medication that works, you need to keep using the medication on a continuous basis. If you do not, your skin will revert to its former, acne riddled state.

For this reason and a host of others, many people choose to treat their acne with an acne free home treatment. Free home treatments consist of homemade treatments created from ingredients that you already have in your cupboard such as limes, garlic, oranges. Lemon juice, mint juice, oatmeal, milk, honey and so on.

Here is just a sampling of the many free home acne treatments that you can try in your own home: Boil whole milk and lime juice, apply to your face and allow to remain on the skin for 15 minutes. This will help soothe cracked skin and help prevent pimples and blackheads.

  • Mix ¼ cup garlic juice with ¾ cup water. Drinking this mixture will create an environment on your skin in which the bacteria that causes acne will not be able to thrive.

  • Mint Juice can be very soothing and calming to acne riddled skin when applied to affected areas nightly.

  • Grate an orange rind, mix with water and allow to remain on the face for 20 minutes.

  • A paste of oatmeal and warm water is also very soothing.

  • Wear a masque of honey and cinnamon powder overnight on your face and neck for two weeks.

  • Ground radish seeds and warm water is another great acne free home treatment.

    • Keep in mind that the above mentioned home remedies have worked for some. That does not mean that they will work for you. Everyone’s skin is different and responds to different treatment courses. If you are using something to treat your acne that is not working, move on to something else.

    Some cases of acne require physician intervention. If your acne is overly persistent, worsening, painful or bleeds, contact a doctor. Sometimes a prescription antibiotic is needed to clear up any secondary skin infections before acne can be treated successfully.
