Natural Acne Skincare Regimen

I must confess you guys, I am not the "greenest" person alive, but I do try really strive to be natural in all that I put into or on my body. I have taken medications, but I am constantly on the look out for natural remedies that work, in hopes that upon finding natural solutions, I will no longer have to use the medication. I believe there is a natural remedy for all ailments. They surely exist and are out there even if we do not know about them yet...

Thanks to this skincare regimen I am about to share with you and the makeup I use (I will save that for another entry), not only is my acne controlled, but scar fading accelerates. I found this regimen off of a website called "Beauty Secrets Revealed Organic Skincare Blog" www.leonsbeautytipsandsecrets.com/ance-free-skin-in-7-days-challenge/


In summary here is the regimen:

In Morning: Cleanse your face with raw honey, or manuka honey (I use raw honey with a few drops of tea tree oil). Follow with an ACV(I use Bragg's)/distilled water/honey mixture (1 to 8 part ACV/water ratio and 1/2 tsp of raw honey) as toner. Finish with moisturizer of choice (I use MyChelle oil-free grapefruit cream)

At Night: There are many options for you to follow here. Feel free to read the website for more info. But here is what I do: I follow the OCM (Oil Cleansing Method) using Grapeseed Oil and tea tree oil (1 tbsp to 2 drop ratio)

I get all of the above items from www.vitacost.com but you will surely find all of the ingredients above at your local health food store.

So what do you have to loose? It has done wonders for me. Try it and let us know how it works for you. :-)
