Washing
the face a couple of times a day helps
but for added cleanliness try a cotton
ball with rubbing alcohol before bed.
The alcohol helps dry the skin of
oil but it also kills bacteria-causing
germs. And since bacteria are at the
heart of acne and blemishes it's important
to keep skin free of its dangers.
Applying
alcohol more than once daily can cause
skin to peel or become irritated.
Alcohol is especially helpful when
the effects of a pimple are first
being felt. Often, the skin around
the area of a pimple-to-be can begin
to sting or feel sore when rubbed;
upon first noticing this condition
douse the area (and only this area)
with alcohol three times daily. See

Individuals
with oily skin could develop complexion
problems resulting in blackheads.
One way to treat oily skin and its
inexpensive is to use oatmeal. Simply
mix water and oatmeal until it becomes
thick as paste; Apply to the face
in the morning and evenings, allow
the paste to stay on the face for
10 to 20 minutes before rinsing with
cool water. The oatmeal as it dries
will absorb the oil.
Another
homemade acne product facial mask
for those with oily skin is made from
honey and apples. After grating the
apple into a fine pulp mix in four
tablespoons of honey and apply to
face for ten minutes. Or beat an egg
white until stiff and add a few drops
of witch hazel and a few drops of
lemon juice. Spread the mixture over
the face and leave for fifteen minutes.
Rinse well with warm water.
Try
using tomatoes for oily skin. Mash
a ripe tomato, drain the juice, and
take the tomato pieces and pat them
onto the face, lay back and leave
for about 15 minutes. Rinse with warm
water. Do this treatment once daily.
