   A product called Bio oil, works extremely well at healing scar tissue, stretch marks, dry skin, aging skin, and uneven skin tone.

   It was highly recommended on a discovery health show, and on some internet articles. I personally found it worked great on my scars and dry skin. It does not work instantaneous, it takes a few uses.

   if you do not want to try it, doctors can prescribe stronger creams, but then these cost more money.

   HOME REMEDIES

   1. Cook oatmeal and apply on face for fifteen minutes, then wash.
   2. Make a warm bath with blanch of nettle and rosemary to reduce the acne.
   3. Apply equal amount of lemon juice and rose water with a cotton ball, leave for half an hour and wash. Repeat for 15-20 days.
   4. Rub the acne with garlic cloves several times a day.
   5. Natural remedy for acne with avocado: Wash face with avocado paste mixed with water.

   I didn’t post them all, just check the bottom site for home remedies

   A special skin care is essential to get rid of pimples. Use of sulphur soap is effective in keeping the oil glands clean. Oils can be removed by the use of lemon juice or camphor­spirit. Cleaning of day’s make-up at night, before going to bed, is very important because make-up particles block the pores and prevent them from breathing freely. Steaming once a week keeps the pores open. Mud packs are an effective means to control pimples.

   Pimples can also be cured by daily intake of a spoonful of honey mixed with sulphur powder, and how you can do this: Use uncooked honey, apply to face and pat until sticky. Leave in place for five minutes. Honey enzymes rejuvenate the skin and act as an antimicrobial.

   Tea tree oil has been shown to remove and stop the growth of bacteria on the skin. An Australian study showed that a 5 percent tea tree oil gel was as effective as 5 percent benzoyl peroxide. Tea tree oil is the only essential oil (except for lavender) that can be applied directly to the skin with no carrier oil. Like other antimicrobials, tea tree oil should be used in a consistent daily regimen to prevent infections.

   Peeling­ off pimples causes septic and leave permanent marks. Marks, however, can be subdued to a great extent by applying cucumber juice and rose-water mixture, and how you can do this: Wash with hot water and a facial brush or washcloth. Squeeze a fresh lemon into a small bowl and put the juice on a cotton ball. Apply cotton ball to face. Repeat soaking of cotton ball in lemon juice as needed. Let lemon juice dry on face for about 10 minutes then rinse with cool water. The lemon juice should make your face sting or mildly burn. For sensitive skin, dilute juice with filtered water.

   Once the skin is regenerating (after two weeks using gentle, natural treatments) you may want to add a stronger facial exfoliant. Many cosmetic manufacturers produce Glycolic acid formulas (15 percent strength). Avoid products that contain heavy moisturizing ingredients and alcohol. Glycolic acid helps loosen or break up the outer layer of the skin and prevents excessive build-up of dead skin cells.

   Don’t worry! Your acne will soon be over, and you’ll be awesomely hot!
