Holistic Acne Cures

By Lucy Collins

Despite what you might have previously thought, there are excellent natural ways to get rid of acne.

There are many different approaches to dealing with acne and many are only short tern solutions. Acne is an imbalance of chemicals in your face that causes inflammation in the follicles of your skin - so you must correct the imbalance. To get permanent results you need to prescribe to something that will change your skin chemistry so that it will be healthy once again. There are natural cures that can help you do this!

One of the best natural acne cures out there is water. And while you might not think this to be true, check out the facts. If you are not drinking water, then you are not only dehydrating your body, but your skin as well. When you skin gets dehydrated, pimples can start to form. It is best to drink your usual 8 glasses of water a day and stay on top of things!

Take care of your body by taking regular showers. It might seem sort of funny, but some people do not have the proper hygiene, which cause numerous breakouts, which cause frustration and self consciousness. Take a daily shower; wash your face with a mild soap, as well as the rest of your body. Nobody should ever really like to sit around in their greasy, dirt covered clothes.

Another great piece of advice for acne sufferers is to drink a cup of warm green tea every morning and at night. Green tea boasts a wide variety of health benefits. It helps the body flush out harmful chemicals with its antioxidant properties and also helps to boost metabolism and the immune system and may also help to lower cholesterol.

To clear your acne you'll also need to start getting involved in some sort of physical activity to keep your metabolism running smoothly. Even running or walking is enough. If you can't get out to try something like that, then try some yoga indoors. Exercise will benefit your health in many other ways, as well, of course.

For many sufferers it seems impossible that one can cure acne simply by changing one's lifestyle so if you feel you still want to use some form of treatment, then use Aloe Vera. Used regularly, this herbal gel will help to cure your spots with the added benefit in that it also prevents further spots from appearing.

Make sure that you are getting plenty of sleep at night. People who stay up at all hours of the night are more likely to get an acne outbreak compared to those who go to sleep at a decent hour. If you deprive your body of sleep, your pores will become larger which will be susceptible to more dirt, and germs.

Of course, it should be said that simply using one or two of the methods explained above will not deliver the results you're hoping for. You need to practice all of them and as you have nothing to loose, at least just give them a try for a couple of weeks. I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised. - 18095
