Acne home remedies may be one of the most sought after ways of curing acne. It is no surprise that acne is considered to be one of the most common skin diseases because it has plagued people for thousands of years. In this period of time, people have always been looking for ways to effectively treat acne and today, you will see that there are now several highly effective acne home remedies that really can effectively treat acne. In fact, some of the home remedies are known to minimize, control, and even remove acne on the skin.

Since pimples usually occur during adolescence there is a myth that only young people have to deal with the blight of pimples. This is a big myth because acne can and does attack people of all ages. You may not see the effect because the acne may be hiding under clothing. But if you suffer from acne and you are well past your teenage years then you are not alone. In fact, the numbers are quite shocking when you look at the amount of people who have adult acne.

TV commercials would have you seek the celebrity endorsed over the counter remedies, but truth is you can get as good or better results and send your blackheads running away with proven home remedies at a fraction of the cost. Plus, you do not have to worry about the wicked side effects of those ineffective chemical based, non-green friendly acne solutions. Natural ways to remove acne and even help with acne scars not only cost less, but as mentioned before they are earth friendly.

You will be pleased to discover that there are several natural ways to combat a breakout of zits. Most of the methods work extremely well, but you may have to rotate their use in order to get the best results in removing your pimples. But it is worth testing all of the natural methods for your skin until you discover the one that your acne responds to the best.

However, you need to remember that some will work well on you and others will fail miserably. It's all a matter of experimenting on the different kinds of home remedies and methods to cure your acne until you find one that is effective for you.

But you still should apply a small amount to you skin at first to make sure you are not allergic to the homeopathic methods.

The first type of home remedy is the good old fashioned oatmeal mask. All you need to do is mix oatmeal with water and apply it on the affected area for at least 20 minutes. Do this two times a week and you will see that it will work wonders on your skin. In fact, it can even reduce oiliness of the skin.

By the way, you may want to try experimenting by making the oatmeal very warm. Some people report that the warmer the better provided it is not so hot that it is burning. And you can even feel free to eat a little bit because oatmeal is great for you and it will not cause you acne like other foods can!

Here is another great home cure for skin acne. It is called orange peel paste. All you need to do is grind the orange peel and mix it with water. But not too much water because you want it to have a paste texture. After that, you will need to apply the paste on the affected area for at least 30 minutes. Then, wash off the paste with lukewarm water. For most people, the vitamins and minerals found in the orange peel works wonders on the skin and on acne. But take care when applying around the eyes because the citric can cause a burning irritation.

If your pimple crisis is giving you high blood pressure then this next remedy will not only work remove your acne, but if ingested it has been said to lower your blood pressure! What am I talking about? You guessed it. Garlic! Now common sense will tell you that unless you want to go out smelling like a piece of garlic bread then you would not use this home remedy and then go out, but a garlic paste is really one of the better working natural remedies for ridding yourself of chronic acne. You can crush the garlic however you prefer and add water unitl it becomes a paste. Hold your nose. Then apply. I am not sure if the acne just can not stand the smell or if this herbal acne remedy has the ancient powers like the Egyptians used to say, but if you want to have clear skin then garlic paste is clearly a winner!

And my final home remedy for your acne is a calming an soothing skin remedy. You can apply this acne solution to your skin, and then drink a cup of it, and have a restful nights sleep. I am talking about chamomile tea. It is wonderful for cleaning your face in the morning and just before you go to bed.
