SOS Pimple

I got asked several times if I have any special products I like to use against pimples. Let me tell you how glad I am that I’m not the only one with this problem.

There are a lot of lotions and medicines on the market to treat pimples but they all cost a ton. I also didn’t want to tell you to buy any specific product because what could work wonders for me might not necessarily work for you.

Natural remedies

But there are many natural methods that are effective in treating pimples within a very short time period:

❄ Ice can be used to quickly reduce the redness, swelling and inflammation of pimples. It helps in improving blood circulation to the affected area, and in tightening the skin pores and removing dirt and oil accumulated on the skin. You can use ice cubes or crushed ice, whichever is convenient.

🍋 Another quick way to get rid of pimples is the use of lemon juice, which is rich in vitamin C. Lemon juice helps pimples dry up faster. Be sure to use fresh lemon juice and not bottled juice, which has preservatives. There are a couple of ways to apply this remedy.

🌱 Tea tree oil is excellent for treating acne and pimples. It has antibacterial properties that help fight the bacteria that cause these skin problems. Plus, its soothing properties help reduce the redness and inflammation of pimples. It also helps dry out blackheads and whiteheads.

🚿 The toothpaste that you use every morning to clean your teeth also can be used to treat pimples quickly. It is most effective when used following the ice remedy. You must use white toothpaste-avoid using gel toothpaste.

🍯 Honey is a source of natural antibiotics that can speed up the healing process, as well as help prevent infections.
