Acne Spot Treatment: For younger people and females in their 20’s, acne can be extremely irritating. Adults could, get acne as well. Did you know that babies can also get acne? These are but some of the astounding facts regarding acne.

Do It Yourself skincare is a big thing but it's what I grew up on and I am so glad my mum taught me the basics of using things found in the kitchen and then we both read up and explored together as I grew older. The biggest benefit I got from this is that I am able to take care of my extremely sensitive skin because of my Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, PCOS, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and trigeminal neuralgia and that too, on a budget!

Acne comes in several forms. Whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and even large cyst like masses are all considered acne. They are complex to cure. People rub, bathe, peel and pick their faces in their attempt to reduce it. While others go for over the counter medicines that can be used every day for treatment.

So I thought it would make sense to share this with all of you - whether you have a chronic condition or not, the idea is to help - but honestly, the help is more inclined to those who do have chronic conditions.

There are branded acne spot treatment and solutions that are obtainable on the market. These may be used alongside with your usual cleansing. These have an very strong dose of medicine which can hastily reduce signs of breakout. Given that they are highly concentrated, they must only be use for a limited period. If not, your skin will get irritated.

But, please remember that I am not a certified dermatologist or a medical  professional in any capacity.

For persons who require a rapid clear up, you may want to consider acne spot treatment because this solution can make your blemishes disappear pretty quickly. You can apply it before you retire, and then when you wake up your blemishes are already less noticeable.

I am a patient who deals with various medical conditions and  I just wanna share what has worked for me.

Application is dependent on the sort of product which you will be using. Please make sure that you first study the instructions as each treatment is different and others might only need using for around 30 minutes only. Acne spot treatment works, kills bacteria and heals quickly.

It's always best to check with a medical  professional before you decide to try anything I share.

There are a lot of different types of acne spot treatment and it is not easy to choose the best amongst them. They also occur in many different varieties. Some treatments are in fluid form and include at least 2% salicylic acid. They can simply be brushed on in order to dry the blemish and start the healing process. An additional type is in patch form which looks like a band-aid that you can put over your pimple.

Also, a lot of these DIY recipes are things my mum has taught me about skin care and hair care and I'm trying to pass that on. In an earlier video, I spoke about the psychological impact of having severely painful acne on my back, arms and face.

With a combination of Aloe and Vitamin E on the product, most people find it as very successful especially for persistent zits. It can also help to repair the damage that the blemish has previously done in your skin. Other variations are in cream form which can be a entire acne fighting treatment as it does not only work as acne spot treatment but can also protect your pores from oil. This is the most suggested treatment in the market at present.

So age 11 to 19 were the worst and although, at the time it didn't feel so but there was progress in the quality of my skin especially because I remained  persistent with the face and body mask I'm going to share today.

If none of the talked about acne spot treatment doesn’t work, it would be a good idea to seek advice from a dermatologist. Your health care professional knows best and can suggest you a diet and life style plan or they can prescribe you a stronger or improved medication that is more helpful in treating your acne. Bacteria on the skin are the cause of acne, so a thorough cleansing is the first and primary step to avoid it.

I also hope to share my natural skin and hair care journey on a regular basis explaining everything I know, that's filled up in this book and another book so if you haven't already, please subscribe to my channel.

Around the age of 12, my mum brought out her beauty book with all sorts of remedies listed  on it - and we decided to experiment to help me because I was at a position where wearing my school shirt hurt the acne on my back - well it hurt my back because of the PCOS and the endo. I didn't know at the time, but the reason for the slow healing of my acne and scarring was because of my Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. This experiment was my only real hope at the time and here's what went into that life changing face and body pack. Now the quantities I'm going to share are for the neck and face - but if you wish to use it on more areas then you can increase the ratio accordingly. So we took... Fullers Earth, it's a great skin cleanser and has magnesium chloride which helps to get rid of acne and reduce its occurrence. So just 2 teaspoons of it. Sandalwood. Just 1 teaspoon of sandalwood because it has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties so it helps to keep the skin clean and calm. It's also a de-tanner. The scarring and black spots took quite a while to go and this is where the sandalwood powder kept aiding this issue. Turmeric, it's antibacterial, anti-inflammatory. We only use a very small amount of this as it can leave a yellow tinge on the skin, plus we do only need very little of it since a small amount of turmeric is very potent so just a quarter teaspoon. Now add... honey - 1/2 teaspoon. Honey has antioxidants, it's antiseptic and has antibacterial properties, but I've added it to this pack because it softens my skin. Lemon juice - a squeeze, a small squeeze so maybe around half a teaspoon. Lemon is a great astringent, an anti-fungal and a de-tanner. For me, in this pack, de-tanning and scar reduction was the reason to add lemon. And now we add rose water, or you can use regular filtered water around 3 teaspoons. Rose-water controls excess oil, hydrates the skin and is an anti-inflammatory which reduces the skin's redness, helps tone the skin and even keeps the pores clean. An additional benefit is... rose water is known to be anti-ageing! We mix this properly until we don't get a smooth paste.Now this mask is applied nice and evenly on the area you wish to apply it on. If it's your face then please don't forget to apply it on your neck as well. Keep it on till it's almost dry, which is usually around the 15 to 20 minutes mark. Then wash it off gently with cool water. Cool water helps to close any open pores. Please don't rub it, it'll trouble the skin and acne more. The skin may feel dry because fuller's earth does that, but it'll also helps to dry out the acne. You can use this as a spot treatment on just the acne or all over. So for the longest time I would do this at least 4 to 5 times a week. On other days, maybe just a spot treatment and eventually the frequency of applying it went down to a couple of times a week. So it's up to you how regularly you wish to do it based on your acne. I hope this helps so please do like, share and subscribe and if you wish to share anything in the comments section, that's where you can do it. And umm maybe you have some of your tips so do share that as well. So, thank you so much for watching... goodbye!
