Natural acne remedies?
Tea Tree Oil = THE BEST, I've been using it for years!!!! Oatmeal masks are great too!
**Edit** Don't forget that you have to maintain moisture balance with an oil-free moisturizer, I prefer Alba Organics the Hawaiian line is fantastic! It's mostly organic & all natural "earthy" ingredients.hey…my skin is kinda lik urs…i used an acne med. that worked…but u said no med.

bubyeOk, a walk down memory lane here for me.
As a teenager, in junior high school (what they call middle school now), I had a very fair complection, while a lot of kids were troubled my acne. How proud I was of myself! Only to realize in high school, that I was merely a “late bloomer”. From the 10th grade onward, I had a major problem with acne.
My acne problem followed me into my college daze. But, it was here that I received the absolute best advice of my life, about fighting acne…and it came from a business professor!
One day in class, we were talking about marketing issues and the subject of selling soap came up. We discussed some of the commercials we often saw on TV, including the commericals (back then) for Irish Spring deodorant soap. The prof. then mentioned that deodorant soaps are sometimes unhealthy for the body, because they kill the “good germs” that live on our skin. This was the FIRST time I had ever heard of such a thing. For the past 4 years I had been using all manner of soaps and cleansers on my face to try to kill the dreaded acne.
Starting that day, I stopped using all soaps and cleaners. Yes, I too had (and still have) somewhat oily skin, but instead of scrubbing and washing my face with ANY soaps, I just started washing and rinsing my face MORE OFTEN using PLAIN WATER. The result? Within a week the majority of my acne had cleared-up. I still got the occassional pimple, but it was nothing like the proverbial pizza face problem that I had before.
Some years later I was actually able to find evidence about the so-called good bacteria that lives on our face. There are things call macrophages that are a bacteria that live on our skin…that eat the other more harmful bactria that cause acne. Do a websearch and see for yourself.
So, my advice? Stop using soaps and cleansers. Wash your face with plain water as often as possible (like once every two hours), and see if this makes a meaningful difference. If it does…I send you the bill for my experct medical advice.
Ok its gonna sound ridiculous but if your serious about getting rid of it then urine ok read this before you go crazy!
While it is a popular misconception that urine is a source of bacteria and bodily waste, urine from a healthy person is actually completely sterile. It contains an impressive amount of components, including amino acids, proteins, enzymes, carbohydrates, vitamins, hormones, as well as many non-organic substances such as chloride, phosphorus, sulphur, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, zinc, cobalt, lead and mercury.
After all, urine has been used since Aztec and Egyptian times as a medical applicant, renowned for its healing properties, especially on open wounds and ‘visible diseases’ (acne is classed as a disease).
Precautions must be taken though of the kind of urine used. While drinking a lot of water results in clear urine (diluted), the most ideal colour is that of a healthy bright yellow, as the urine is more concentrated in this state and will have a more powerful effect. Also, when taking ones own urine for application, it is best to collect it mid-stream (onto a cotton ball/pad for example), as this means that any (unlikely) impurities are washed out as the urine exits the body during the first few seconds.
Application works best in the morning, and especially at night before going to bed, as the body and face relaxes, letting the urine react better.
Note: After the urine has been applied to the face, leave it to soak for at least 10 minutes before rinsing it off clear.
Depending on the skin type of course, this treatment should show results within a few days. Of course, as with any cleaning regimen, continued application is recommended to find out if it works effectively.
