with these easy aromatherapy acne recipes

quick homemade acne remedies

Acne can be a horrible thing to live with every day. And it can be very hard to get rid of, especially when it's caused by surging hormones - not much we can do about that!


In addition to hormones, acne can also be caused by poor diet (eat your vegetables!) vitamin deficiencies and stress. Click here for some good aromatherapy stress recipes.


Some other strategies for fighting acne include drinking lots of water, getting plenty of exercise and not smoking or drinking alcohol. Yep! Good clean living really does help!


Plus, you can harness the power of essential oils by making your own homemade acne remedies.


Homemade acne solutions are quick and easy to make, they can save you a ton of money, and they're often a lot healthier than some of the acne products you can buy at the store. (Just because they get rid of your acne doesn't mean they're GOOD for you!)


Natural Health & Nutrition Tips


Here's a complete acne skincare routine using homemade remedies for acne.


Healthy Skincare Routine Using Homemade Acne Remedies

Oily, acne-prone skin needs daily care - morning and night. And a weekly deep treatment doesn't hurt. (By the way, you can use these acne recipes on any part of your body - not just your face!)

acne and essential oil face wash

Every morning

  1. Wash your face with a good skin balancing cleanser.
  2. Apply an astringent toner.
  3. Spot treat any pimples or blemishes with tea tree or lavender essential oil as described above.
  4. Moisturize your face.

    DO NOT FAIL TO MOISTURIZE! It may seem silly to put cream on oily skin but if you don't, your skin will produce even more oil to replace the oil removed during the cleansing process.

Every Night

  1. Wash your face with a purifying facial scrub.
  2. Apply an astringent toner.
  3. Spot treat any pimples or blemishes with tea tree or lavender.
  4. Apply healing night cream or acne scar treatment.

Once a Week

  1. Give yourself a herbal facial steam.
  2. Apply a deep cleansing facial mask.
  3. Apply an astringent toner.
  4. Apply moisturizer or acne scar treatment.

Once a week, take some time out to care for your skin. Not only will your skin show the results, but the rest of you will appreciate the break and de-stress time. Self-care is a really important habit!


The Final Bonus

Using homemade acne remedies not only clears up your skin but also supports your whole body with the nerve-calming, muscle-relaxing, immune-boosting powers of essential oils. Click to learn about the best essential oils for acne.
