5 Simple Home Items For That Pesky Pimple
Although the ingredients of these all-natural treatments are found
in our pantries, it is still best to use them in moderate amounts. Some of
these have natural salicylic acid in them that tend to dry out one’s skin.
These remedies are made for that big, scary, red pimple that seems
to capture everyone’s attention and not your average acne. However, you can
apply them on regular break-outs but not to the point where your skin dries
out. Everything should always be in moderation. Remember, a little goes a long
way.

1.
Make
a tiny clay mask by mixing a bit of
water and your favourite essential oil and apply it over the pimple. Leave it
over night and if not overnight, it’ll be gone after a couple of days.
Don’t know which clay to use? Try Redmond
clay, bentonite or your average cosmetic clay.
2.
Apply
apple cider vinegar on your facial
imperfection once or twice a day. Use a cotton swab and to apply the ACV on
your face and don’t rinse it off unless you feel that you have to.
3.
Before
going to bed, squeeze out a fresh lemon
and apply the juice on your zany zit. Do this at night or under minimal
lighting because lemon juice might bring severe reactions to your skin when
exposed under the heat of the sun.
4.
Mix
about 1/8 of a tsp mustard powder to
1 tsp unfiltered honey and stir well. Spread the concoction on your pimple and
wash it off after 15 minutes. Bottled mustard can also prove effective. Why
mustard? Why not? Mustard has vitamin C, omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, and zinc,
which are good for your skin.
5.
Green tea, aside from its anti-inflammatory properties for puffy eyes, it is
also known to soothe a sore pimple. Instead of throwing those tea bags away,
you can reuse them by making green tea ice cubes for your face.
