If you are trying to remove acne at home and with some natural remedies, you will love this article! You don’t have to spend a lot of money or time by going to a professional, dermatologist, or a facialist. Here is how to remove acne in three different ways by using the most common ingredients that you probably already have in your household.

1. Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil is very well used and loved in Australia. It can fight bacteria and help with any skin inflammations. You can use it to fight acne, pimples, as well as an oily complexion. One study has shown that only 5% of the tea tree oil is four times more effective with acne lesions, and who doesn’t love effective results?

How To Apply It?

Use one part of tea tree oil and combine it with water. Add a bit of these two to a cotton swab and apply directly to your pimples or your acne. Do this once or twice a day for a week. If your skin dries out you can apply moisturizer on top of the oil.

2. Essential Oils

Some essential oils have antibacterial as well as anti-inflammatory properties. If you happen to have any cinnamon, rose, or lavender oils, you can fight off acne. According to one study, using a gel that has essential oils such as orange or sweet basil can speed up the healing rate of acne wounds by 75%!

How To Apply It?

Use one part of essential oil with nine parts of water. Use your cotton swab and mix these two together. Apply on top of your pimples or your acne. Do this once or twice a day.

3. Green Tea

Green tea is beneficial for your skin’s health, as well as your body health. It is filled with antioxidants that can fight inflammation as well as bacteria. One study believes that, by applying green tea to the skin, you will produce a lot less sebum, therefore – a lot less pimples!

How To Apply It?

Steep your green tea in boiling water for 4 minutes. Let it cool down before you apply it with a cotton ball to your face. Leave it on top for 10 minutes and rinse out with lukewarm water. You can store the tea in your fridge for up to two weeks, and you can use it for just as long on top of your skin!
