How to get rid of pimples naturally

Heya Everyone, Hope you are all in the best of moods and health!

Summer season for me always calls for pimples and acne 😡 These little monsters are really the only thing I hate in life! But luckily I have found some really good ingredients in my kitchen that works for me and helps me get a clear skin 😀

First and foremost before starting I want to accept that I have personally started following the Face Mapping, I must confess it is difficult to follow certain things especially when you are not used to it but when you see the difference you really want to do it. So first check your Face Mapping and start treating it internally as well 🙂

What causes Pimples?

The main reason why we have pimples/acne is due to clogged pores. Our skin produces sebum in an oil form which if not cleansed well and taken good care of (I am talking CTM here guys!) leads to dirt gathering into your pores and then coming out as a monster aka pimple 😛 Ok cutting my blabber short, Here I am sharing the 5 best ingredients by my own experiences and trial and errors; that has helped me get rid of pimples naturally.

How to Get Rid of Pimples:5 Best Ways To Clear Skin Naturally

1. STEAM and CTM (Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing):

As I always stress and mention, a good skincare regimen is the first step you take towards prevention of pimples. (Prevention is better than cure remember?) So follow a strict skin care routine and a well tried and tested CTM routine. With this as a step to get rid of pimples steaming your face and cleaning the pores from within is extremely important. You should steam your face once a week to ensure that you have no clogged pores.

2. ICE TREATMENT:

Whenever you see a pimple popping up, immediately apply ice on it. This will reduce the redness of the pimple and will also help heal it faster (note: This does not help you get rid of it completely but it sure helps to speed up the healing process) DO NOT push the ice on your pimple too hard just let it sit mildly on your pimple till you can take the cold, remove ice and repeat this for 10 minutes.

3. LEMON, HONEY, TURMERIC AND NUTMEG PACK:

A very quick and effective way to reduce and heal the pimple is preparing a concoction of pure organic honey, lemon, turmeric and nutmeg and applying it on your entire face for 20-30 minutes and then wash it off with warm water. Honey is an anti bacterial and a good moisturizer, Lemon is acidic and has vitamin C which helps to reduce the scarring and also helps to dry off the pimple, Turmeric is a very good anti-bacterial that helps prevent more bacteria formation and lastly Nutmeg helps to reduce the size of your acne. Mix everything in equal parts. If your skin is dry add more of honey and oily then more of lemon 🙂

4. TEA TREE OIL:

This is a wonder essential oil when it comes to naturally curing your pimples. It is said that tea tree oil is equivalent to 5% benzoyl peroxide (prescribed by most dermatologist as a treatment for severe acne) DO NOT use tea tree oil all over your face as it is very strong. You can use this oil as a spot treatment 2-3 times a day on your pimple and be least assured that it will get cured soon. I have personally experienced great success when used this as a spot treatment.

5. ASPIRIN MASK:

This is another super and easy DIY for your acne/pimples. Buy aspirin (NON-COATED) from your medical store and mix it with rose water, prepare a pack and apply it for 10 mins on your pimples (SPOTS ONLY) Aspirin has acetylsalicylic acid which is one of the major ingredients that is used in various over the counter acne/pimple products. Because it is strong, ensure to wash it off after 10 minutes.

NOTE: These are all the options that I use when I break out, they work very well for me. As we are all different from each other so is our skin! Hence I STRONGLY RECOMMEND you to do a patch test first before applying anything mentioned above directly on to your pimples.

I sincerely hope these work well on you too. Also let me be very honest and tell you that as these are home remedies, please do not expect results overnight or even in 3-5 days. Natural remedies always take their time to work and work differently on different people. For me I see changes in about a weeks time it may be faster on you or it may take longer on you. But Patience here is the key!

With this always ensure that your diet is right and you are drinking enough water. If your acne/pimples are too painful and severe please go to a certified dermatologist 🙂
