Get rid of acne scars

A good complexion is the first thing many people notice in an ordinary
girl. I always hoped to have good skin - at least skin that was clear and
smooth.


Unfortunately, my skin is a mix of oily and dry regions, and I've have
acne evr since I became a high school student, even until now.

While it always cleared up with time, each bout with acne left me with a
few new pits and scars. Getting rid of the marks has been a constant, if
tangential, quest of my life.

Some of the home remedies I've tried are in this article. Look them over
and give each a try. Stick with whichever works best for you. When it
comes to managing acne, experience is a powerful teacher.

Remedy 1: Vitamin E

Try applying vitamin E to the scarred area three to four times daily to
help reduce its visibility. If you keep at it, you should see some
results after one to two weeks. It takes a long time before you get
really noticeable effects.

Remedy 2: Tomato

Placing slices of tomato on your skin can act as an astringent to break
up oil, lift away dead skin and help prevent acne. The pulp of the tomato
has the strongest astringent properties.

Remedy 3: Toothpaste

Apply a dab of toothpaste on your pimple before bed. This is useful for
new pimples, especially big ones. Whenever I spot a new pimple, I try
this. Usually the next morning, it will be dried out enough to pop on its
own.

Remedy 4: Honey and pearl

A useful facial pack for acne is honey and pearl powder.

Apply a mask of it for 15 minutes. If you can keep doing it every week,
your skin will become lighter and smoother.


Remedy 5: Lemonsf

Lemon juice is effective in lightening the dark spots left by acne and
pimples.

First, cleanse the scarred area with water. Soak up a teaspoon of lemon
juice with a cotton ball and smooth it over the marks. Leave the juice in
place for ten minutes, then rinse.

Be careful how often you use lemon juice: it can have the side effect of
making your skin light sensitive. Make sure to cover treated areas with
sunscreen before going outdoors.
