Pimples are little skin injuries or aggravations of the skin which are oftentimes painful and always ugly. For periodic, limited breakouts, there are some home remedies you can use which will not cost you much nor cause further damage to your skin.
ICED CUBES
If you have spots that are especially swollen and red, rubbing iced cubes on the troubled spots will not only close the pores, it will push out the bacteria as well.
TOOTHPASTE
Get some white toothpaste and rub on the infected region for at least 30 minutes then wash off. Do this repeatedly.
GARLIC
Not only does garlic have plenty of antibacterial properties when you eat it, it also has great effects when applied directly to the skin. Slice a clove of garlic and rub with the juice on the affected areas. Leave up to 30 minutes
PAPAYA
Cut some pawpaw, mash up the flesh to form a lotion and apply directly on the skin. Leave for half an hour, rinse and moisturize.
LEMON JUICE
Lemon is great for clearing up skin. To get the best results, just apply the lemon juice directly to the skin and leave it for up to an hour.
BAKING SODA
Baking soda is a great option for clearing up spots. Make a paste using baking soda and warm water, rub on the affected part, leave for up to an hour and rinse.
Good luck!!!
