Here is a simple tip that you can use to reduce your acne scars and pigmentation.
The Oil Cleansing Method
What you will need:
Warm Water
Cold Water
Clean Towels
Castor Oil
Olive Oil
The first thing you need to do is to wash your face gently to remove excess dirt and oils from the surface.
You will then need to warm a clean towel in warm water and apply it to your face for 3 minutes. Do the same thing with the cold water but this time for one minute.
Carry out both the warm water and cold water procedure about 3 times but always finish with cold and then pat dry with another clean towel.
Next mix a small amount of castor oil with a small amount of olive oil. A 50/50 ratio will do just fine. Apply the mixture to your skin and let it stay there for 30 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel and you are good to go.
Tomatoess .
Neither , try sliced lemons
dealing with skin, i def wouldn’t deal with tomatoes and lemons, those are very acidic, people may say it’s like a chemical peel (which evens skin and skin tone out) over a period of time, i would see a dermatologist.
LEMON JUICE.
or aloe vera plant
hi, your web name suggests that like me you’d rather use some natural stuff than go see a dermatologist who will probably suggest dermabrasion or some such solution which is often rather harsh on the skin. This home remedy if used regulary will tackle the problem in about 2-3 months but it is a surefire method. Take a teaspoon measure each of coriander powder, and nutmeg powder mix with milk cream and massage the scars as often as you would wash your face. This is an ancient ayurvedic remedy hope you find it helpful
Do not…repeat…Do Not put lemon juice on your skin. Citrus juice oxidizes and becomes a free radical very rapidly on the skin causing more damage than good. That is why in some cultures it used for bleaching body hair while tanning in the sun.
I’m uncertain the benefits/possible side effects of putting tomato juice on scar tissue but I can tell if you the tissue is thick it probably won’t make too much of a difference.
Look for products with labels containing liopolic acid, c-esters, dmae, Glycolic Acid or Alpha- hydroxy Acid if you want some deep tissue repaired. Which will only be found in professional cosmetics not drugstores. Though this one I really like is old in Sprouts- http://www.amazon.com/Source-Naturals-Eternal-C-Ester-Lipoic/dp/B0009EXOXW
Vitamin E helps rebuild collagen and elasticity in the skin as well which helps diminish scar tissue and stretch marks to boot! Check out http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/skin-care?cm_re=Tyra_SummerSale_Anon-_-Navigation-_-Skin_Care .
Just remember the best thing for acne, aging, hyper-pigmentation(brown spots) and most other skincare concerns stems from a lack of using skincare appropriate for your skin type and using it routinely.
Basics are 1. Cleanse, 2. Tone, 3. Moisturize, 4. Exfoliate(usually 1 or 2x’s a week, depending on the scrub) And of course wearing a separate sunscreen. Fresh and old acne scars need as much protection from the sun as they can get but don’t use an spf higher than 30spf. Higher spf’s have a high chemical concentration.
There are a lot of good skin care lines that are non-carcinogenic at a reasonable price! Good Luck!
While acne is a disturbing problem, an acne scar is even worse. Acne forms and goes – but if it takes the form of a scar in the process, it can leave permanent marks on your face – and they can disfigure your face. They can be treated and cured, but if done wrongly – things can go horribly wrong, so you need sensible and effective methods on how to get rid of acne scars. So, time for you to read some effective home remedies for acne scars!
Keep in mind that I had been an acne sufferer for 15 years. I have had experience on maybe dozens of different acne scar treatments. I am listing the ones that I know work and can have no side effects on your skin – so bear with me on this one.
1. Lemon: Lemon juice is acidic and it helps to get rid of dead skin cells, making the rebuilding process faster. Also – the shining property of lemon juice will greatly help in hiding the acne scar.
2. Tomato: First, a lesson: Tomato is not a vegetable, it’s a fruit! A fruit that has amazing properties. Tomato is very rich in Vitamin A, and Vitamin A inhibits sebum production (sebum is the bodily oil on your skin that causes acne when there’s too much of it) which helps in getting rid of acne; but wait, there is more: Vitamin A helps greatly in speeding up the body’s healing process. And lastly, tomato is a very well known oxidant and oxidants are known for their rejuvenating properties – especially skin. Hold one half of a tomato against your scars for 10 to 15 minutes, then wash.
3. Rosehip Oil: Like tomato, the rosehip seed oil is very rich in Vitamin A. Its additional properties such as anti-aging and skin regeneration effects are a bonus! Rosehip oil is one of the most important ingredients in today’s cosmetic industry. What most cosmetic brands do is to put some chemicals in what is basically rosehip seed oil and brand it as a new anti-aging, skin-regenerating product! You can get pure rosehip seed oil from your pharmacist or at somewhere like Amazon. Cheaper, and without the added chemicals! Just apply it to your skin three times a day.
Those three methods on how to get rid of acne scars – you can’t go wrong with them. They are all healthy, and all natural. They will improve your skin conditions dramatically!
