How to treat acne
Written on Friday, 9 of July, 2010 at 10:28 am
Is your skin breaking out? Or is there a big red pimple that stands out in your face like an eyesore? Here are some ways you can treat acne:
- Use tea tree oil or products with tea tree oil. This is a natural and potent acne treatment. Tea tree oil is proven to be safe and effective. This oil can be potent, though, so a tiny drop on areas of concern is good enough.
- Use products with salicylic acid. Salicylic acid is also an effective acne remedy and is quite safe for the skin. You can also use a salicylic acid peel or mask.
- Use products with benzoyl peroxide. This is recommended by dermatologists and is said to be the most effective way to treat acne, but be careful as benzoyl peroxide can irritate your skin.
Use products with Retin-A. Like benzoyl peroxide, though, this can irritate the skin and make it red and dry.
So tea tree oil may be your best bet to treat acne, followed by salicylic acid.
