The dreaded acne!!!

Okay let’s talk about the dreaded acne!!!

So I have been blessed with acne! So if you are like me and you just want it gone but have tried everything and nothing has worked I got a great tip for you!!!!

So lets just talk about what acne really is and why we get it.

Human skin is covered in hundreds of thousands of pores. Which really are microscopic hair follicles. Sometimes these follicles overproduce cells and become blocked with sebum (oil). It normally drains to the surface of your skin but it can become trapped and bacteria begins to grow, causing acne.

DO NOT POP THAT PIMPLE!!!

I know you have done it!!!!!! I am to blame to. You just want that thing to disappear but really your only causing yourself more trouble. When your picking, squeezing and popping them you are rupturing them and can cause them to turn in to inflammatory acne. It means that they will stay around longer!!!! Because they are now under the skin and the opening is closed do to inflammation.

Okay, okay I get it, just tell me the trick to just get ride of it!! So acne just doesn’t “poof” it’s gone like that. This home remedy will speed up the process so it won’t stick around. I GUARANTEE you will see the deferent’s in one–two days.

1. So this is what I do when I have a pimple. I get whatever even completion mask I have at the time and I get the turmeric from the kitchen cupboard. I mix the two together and apply it like a mask (WARNING it will leave a yellow residue on your skin but you can get it off.) and let it dry. (You can also apply turmeric straight on to the pimple if you only have one that works to.)

2. Wash your face with just warm water to get most of the mask off. Then use honey and baking soda  (mixed together) and use it like a face wash. It will make your skin feel soft and also get rid of the yellow.

 The turmeric has ante-inflammatory properties init and it will also bring up all the sebum (oil). Turning the pimple into a white head.

3. STILL DON’T POP IT!!!!!!!

When it turns into a white head, get a pair of scissors (the little ones or a pin) clean it with 99% alcohol that will kill any germs on them. Then just nick the top.

Now get a q-tip spray 99% alcohol on it. And GENTEELLY apply pressure to get the puss out DON’T MAKE IT BEELD!!!

I really only recommend to do this once a week if your doing the mask. This is just something that I have tried and works for me. I hope this helps anyone who needs it. And you should always talk to you doctor .
