Just add a half mixture of this, and half part water and apply on your face. This treatment is great for clogged pores and it's also effective in minimizing swelling.
Keeping your skin clean is another way to help treat the outbreak of adult acne. Make sure to thoroughly clean all make-up products off you skin everyday, particularly before you go to bed. Doing so can cause you pores to clog trapping the acne causing bacteria in your skin. It is also a good idea to keep your hair away from your face. The oil on your hair can also lead to clogged pores.
Putting a dash of fresh lemon juice on the affected area will help by killing the acne causing bacteria and balancing your skin's PH level. This may sting a bit so get ready for it.
Squeezing and popping pimples can actually make the condition worse. As much fun as popping zits can be it is best to let the body do its thing and clear up the acne naturally. Squeezing them can also lead to scarring which can be hard to get rid of. Vitamin A, and the B vitamins, all have important roles in the health of the skin. Vitamin A strengthens the skin, and a deficiency can lead to acne. However, it is important to note that an excess of this vitamin can also create pimples. Too much vitamin A can be dangerous, especially for pregnant women, who should not take more than 10,000 IU a day. Others can take up to 25,000 IU daily, and this is indeed recommended for treating acne.
