Having combination acne prone skin there are a few things that I reach for regularly as they help me to calm breakouts ,keep my skin tone even in addition to other things. These are few items that I learned the value of over the years.If you use any of them feel free to share how you use them.Many of the items listed have been used topically for generation in a variety of ways.I encourage you to try them out for yourself .
My must haves:
 |
| Great antiseptic I mix with apple cider vinegar,tea tree oil and water for a great home made toner Use: ance fighter💪 |
Witch Hazel
 |
| Best for acne prone skin using sparingly because it is extremely strong |
Tea Tree Oil
 |
| ACV my nieces and nephews know this well.All rounder jump start your immune system ,mix with your shampoo,fight colds just mix with honey.ACV can be harsh please dilute before applying to skin. |
 |
| Since high school I have used baking soda with cornmeal as a home made scrub in my puppy's bath,for oral care,another all rounder. |
| I am late on the tumeric bandwagon just a year but it has cancer fighting properties and many skin benefits I use it for my weekly mask best kept Indian secret. |
| Besan or chickpea flour another Indian product is an amazing base for a mask work similarly to clay firms the skin.I use gram flour tumeric milk and coconut oil to make my weekly mask. |
 |
| Activated charcoal used to remove impurities in emergency rooms it provides the same benifit for your skin also excellent teeth whitening agent.I dedicate a specvific toothbrush to this process. |
 |
| My favorite moisturizer people regularly touch my leg to see if I'm wearing stockings(I despise them) so I ensure my legs are as stocking like as possible. I achieve this by exfoliating with baking soda weekly and daily moisterize with Shea butter. |
In addition I have been using honey,coconut oil ,molases and rosemary. For me I have realized that natural products give me better results.Less processing and fewer if any harmful chemical simply means that your skin is getting the raw pure benefits.Also having products in the natural state allow you to experimen what product world well together to conquer recurring problems.
I hope you feel inspired to go the all natural root.
Until next time
Blessing

ReplyDeleteHey Nikki thanks for the insight. I have very bad acne. I am currently using nuetrogena however it doesn't work as fast as I would want it to. Prior to that I was using clean and care but I assume I'm allergic to it being that whenever I use it I tend to break out even more. So, which product you recommend I use?
ReplyDeleteNikki did you see my post cause I can't
ReplyDeleteI would suggest you try the toner you will need apple cider vinager ,witch hazel and tea tree oil.You only need a few drops of the tea tree oil as to other products I am not sure of your skin type or what triggers your breaskout for me I know when I eat poorly excess sweets and such I break out.find your trigeers ,drink plenty of water and start and stick to a skin care routine.
ReplyDeleteIs it a combination of all those items or u choose one and work with it? How much dosage of each should be used to to get the proper or best mixture?
ReplyDeleteIts what works for you and as to dosage apple cider vinager ,witch hazel and tea tree oil are very strong ,so you dinately need a small amount tumeric is also very pigmented which may stain other than that it really depends on what you are using it for but with these thing general rule start with a little if needed add more
ReplyDeleteWhat is gram flour?
ReplyDeleteFlour made from chick peas used in Indian cuisine and skin care.Also call besan or garbanzo bean flour
