Real Working Tips To Get Rid Of Tough Acne!

posted in Skin & Body Tips on 6/25/2015

It's something most of us struggle with one time or another, but that shouldn't be something to stop us! Swipe through to find amazing tips and home remedies on how to get rid of tough acne. I'll also include some of my favorite products that got rid of mine! :)

The best thing you could start doing for your skin is eating skin-loving foods! Make yours happy by eating things like fruit (strawberries, blueberries and tomatoes), almonds, mint leaves (infuse them into drinks!), avocados, fish, eggs, and especially green tea. All of these are amazing to use!

Next, drink a fair amount of water throughout the day. If you're even the tiniest bit thirsty or have a dry mouth, take a sip of water. Your body will seriously thank you for it. If you want, infuse your water. Not only will it detoxify your skin AND body, but it's something that helps lose weight!

If you want to try infusing water, here are some of my favorite combos to get rid of acne and detoxify both of my skin and body.

- Mint, lemon & strawberries

- Blueberries, mint and kiwis

- Oranges, mint and strawberries

Always remember to wash your face everyday, morning and night. Night is always the best if you happen to not have time in the morning, so if you can only do it once a day, then try to do it at night to scrub away all of the oil and dirt you've gotten on your skin throughout the day.

If you DO have time to wash your face in the morning, try whipping up a homemade honey face wash to clean your face and get you ready for the day. Just combine 1 cup of honey, 8 drops of lavender oil, and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. You can keep this up to 4-5 weeks.

Also, if you're thinking about making the honey face wash—store it in a very clean bottle that is easy to pour a small amount or pump into your hand when you use it. If you have a honey bear bottle lying around, use that! It already has honey in it, so that's probably the best choice. Anything else clean will do for storing it. :)

Lastly, swipe over through the next pages to see all of the products I'm using that have cleared up my skin within a week. Yep, that's the truth! These products are all from the same brand, and they are a tad pricey—but you get a lot of bang for your buck. It's seriously worth it!

Brazened Honey Face Mask from LUSH Cosmetics // $6.95. I use this twice a week!

Next is what I use in the morning: Kalamazoo facial wash! Now, I know this says that it's for beards—but personally, I use it for a gentle cleanser in the morning. This smells so good (like fruit!) and it's perfect when it comes to waking me up. I barely use enough to cover the tip of my finger!

Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser by LUSH // $12.95. I use every night, this is the one thing that has cleared up my skin completely just by itself! Next is Ocean Salt by LUSH, $21.95. I use this maybe once a week, since it lasts a whole year. I looooove it, it's so refreshing.

Grease Lightning Spot Treatment from LUSH // $13.95. This stuff I use TWICE a day! I just pump out the smallest bit and rub it over a blemish, acne scar or painful pimple. This is so amazing because it lasts FOREVER, since you use a small bit. Also, I can see a tremendous difference the next day.

Lastly is my Tea Tree Water Toner from LUSH // $9.95. It is sooo refreshing to use. I also use this twice a day as well, morning and night. I put this on before my Grease Lightning spot treatment. It really does complete everything and dries up the unwanted oils that cause acne and painful zits. :)

Weeellll, I hope you enjoyed these tips. Don't forget to be a doll and like this! It makes me smile and gets me giddy in the morning. Sometimes I spill my tea. Which I don't mind, because I'm still happy to share all of this with you that struggle with acne or even the occasional pimple. Also, I hope you have a good day/night and that you gained a little inspiration or knowledge from this! :D
