Away Acne-Tips
Tip #1: First thing in the morning on an empty stomach, have one glass (8 oz or more) of fine grey sea salt mixed with water. This isn't just the sea salt you buy at the grocery store. This is high quality sea salt from France with over 80 mineral elements in it. Mix ONLY a pinch of it into your water and drink (it's pretty much tasteless). This will also cause you to lose some pounds even if you don't need to, but it balances the body which I think helps a great deal for ones skin!! (I lost 7-8 pounds in 1 month even though I didn't need to, and my skin is improving a lot) The salt can be found at: http://www.eco-natural.com/greysalt/products.html [the fine grey sea salt]
Tip #2: If you have a bad breakout or your face is irritated, take an ice cube and ice your face for however long it takes for the ice to disappear. Do this 1-2 times a day. It really helps soothe and calm the area, and cold is really good for the skin. I do this every night even when I don't need to, I just love the feel of it.
Tip #3: Using a mud mask is really good for those annoying tiny little bumps that are a pain to get rid of. Apply it thick (thicker the better) on that area, let dry and then gently massage some water over it in circle motions for about a minute. Then rinse. When I had some of these bumps around my mouth one time, I did this and they practically disappeared overnight. It dries them right up.
Tip #4: Apple Cider vinegar mixed with honey is a great after-wash. Just mix them together and splash it on your face after cleansing, then go to bed. Don't rinse it off. It usually does a good job drying pimples out because the vinegar is good for killing any bacteria that forms while the honey makes it less burning. I've heard some people rave about it, I haven't tried it though.
Tip #5: Pure juice from a lemon is known to dry up acne, however..I found that the juice is better as a toner and lightening acne marks and scars. Delute some of the juice with either rose water or normal water and apply with a cotton ball over the entire face. It's good to use during the day, but if you wear makeup then use it at night. It brightens the skin also and promotes a glow.
Tip #6: This is my favorite home-made scrub! You'll love it. Take a handful of oats (natural plain porridge oats) and put it in a cup or small bowl, add just enough cream (or warm milk), or even just water until it forms a paste. Then spread on your face and wait about 3-4 minutes. Then wet your hands and slowly massage it in circle motions for 1-2 minutes, you'll love the feel of it. Then rinse. It's awesome for oily/normal skin and leaves it sooo extremely soft. It also does a great job at fading marks and overall makes the skin look good. Do this 1-2 times a week. Caution: it's gets very messy!! =)
Tip #7: Avoid dairy!!! I'm sure you know this one already. That goes for milk especially, cheese, and so on. There are much healthier alternatives. Use goat cheese made from goat milk. Use goat milk, coconut, almond or rice milk. These taste even better than the normal cows milk. Also avoid as much refined sugar as you can. If you drink coffee or tea and use sugar, get stevia. Stevia is a plant and is natural. Avoid pastries (donuts, muffins, cakes, pies) even though they're so yummy..there's also alternatives. Basically anything white like flour...you can get coconut flour if you love to bake.
Tip #8: Apricots, blueberries, strawberries, apples, pears, plums, watermelon..etc are excellent for the skin. (Oranges, grapefruit..etc) are not (as I've heard so many people who breakout from these high citrus fruits.)
Tip #9: Change your pillow case every night, change your sheets once a week/biweekly. I find that fresh air while sleeping really helps the skin. It's freezing here in Canada right now with winter and I always keep my window slightly open at night so I can feel a light breeze on my face. My skin always looks so much clearer the next day! And 8 or more hours of good sleep helps.
Tip #10: Think positive. Find some time to yourself when you're all alone (during a bath maybe, or laying in bed) and just focus and concentrate on clear skin. Visualize yourself with clear skin, hold that image in your mind for as long as possible, take deep breaths and do this for at least 10 minutes. Hang up a picture in your room of a model with perfectly clear skin and stare at it. Your mind is powerful and create anything you want, but it's difficult for us because we are impatient. Practice a few times and do it daily. I did this a few months back when I was really miserable about my skin, and in less than a week my skin just cleared up. I even got compliments on what I was doing, it was an awesome feeling. Try not to think about the bad so much, like being totally obsessed of what you eat that day or forgetting to wash your face. Blank out the negative whenever it starts to show and just hold that thought in your mind of having clear skin no matter what you do, and it will manifest.
Well I hope you find some, or at least one, of these tips helpful. Good luck.

Tips To Send AWAY ACNE
Basically acne is inflamation of the skin caused by a sebaceous gland located
at the base of a hair follicle becoming clogged with natural oils causing a bacterial buidup.
This condition may be worse in adolescence but can happen at any age.
Elevated, inflamed, reddened areas of the skin is one of the symptoms of an acne
sore or pimple as they are called. Sometimes there are blackheads that become inflamed
suggesting the need for better facial cleansing. Whiteheads on the acne sore is
caused by a B1 vitamin deficiency or poor vitamin absorption. To increase the
absortion of vitamins and minerals, a supplement of acidophilus is recommended.
The causes of acne can be many, including: food allergies, soaps, makeup, soda pop, fried foods,
dairy products,chocolate, and even facial cleansers.
So, what can a person do to send away acne and have a more pleasant, smooth skin?
One of the best things to do is to be sure to get your daily vitamin/mineral requirements;
especially the B complex vitamins and vitamin A/beta-carotene. Also 80 mg of zinc, and
an omega-3 fatty acid supplement. What a person should consider is to take a good
vitamin/mineral supplement with additional supplements of the above vitamins.
Diet is also very important to sending away acne. Several servings daily of fresh, raw
vegetables and fruit will be helpful. Reduce your consumption of saturated fats and
vegetable fats. Reduce consumption of refined sugar, alcohol, and foods/drinks containing
caffiene. Increase the amount of fiber in your diet as well. If you like vegetable juices
then drinking carrot juice with celery and beet juices is also good for acne.
Facial cleansing is also beneficial to skin care. Using a mild soap and water wash the
face several times a day. Rinse the face with warm water (not hot) and pat dry.
Don't use makeup that has any kind of oil as an ingredient; use water-based makeup.
Soaps that are recommended has the herb calendula as an ingredient, it helps clean
the skin without irritation.
Some herbal remedies for acne are: aloe vera gel taken internally in a capsule and
externally on the skin, a cup of burdock tea-three or four times daily, and Oregon grape
powder 0.5-1 gram daily.
None of these remedies should be considered as medical advice, all of these suggestions
have been gathered from research and is accurate as far as the author can tell. Hopefully
one or more of these suggestions will help you in your quest for relief of acne and it's
symptoms. I had terrible acne as an adolescent and wish I had at that time known about
how to send away acne with some of these remedies.
