Natural Acne Treatments – Apple Cider Vinegar
In the latter part of 2008 I began scouring the net for cheap home remedies for acne. I read some information on the use of apple cider vinegar, which was to be diluted and applied to the face for a few minutes and then rinsed off.
I tried this one night, but ignored the part about diluting the solution. I also kept it on my face overnight and rinsed it off the next morning. I was pleased with the results. It appeared to have the effect of reducing the size of the pimples. I did this for a few days and I noticed that the pimples disappeared then. This became a nightly ritual for me and the results were generally pleasing.
There were drawbacks though. I found the apple cider vinegar very drying to my face so if one is going to use it then it must be followed up with a good moisturizer. Also, overtime it appeared to be a bit too harsh for my face, but this may have been because I was applying it undiluted. So there were a couple nights when I would forgo the treatment. Whenever I did this, the pimples would instantaneously reappear, albeit fewer in number.
This became my treatment of choice until around April 2009 when I discovered another remedy.

Natural Acne Treatments Introduction -Seeking Solution To My Acne Problem
Acne is a skin infection characterized by pimples and blackheads. The area of the skin most vulnerable to acne appears to be the face. Acne also sometimes appears on the upper back and chest regions. This skin disease is not life threatening, but it can seriously damaging to a person’s confidence and self-esteem as acne pimples and scars, particularly facial acne, can be very unsightly and unattractive. For this reason many individuals spend a lot of money on products that claim to be acne solutions. And I am not here to put down the effectiveness of any product. All I will say is that there are cheaper, more natural remedies out there that are sometimes more effective than the chemical based solutions.
I should know because I have spent money in the past trying to cure my acne or at the very least get it to a tolerable stage. This was so important to me at the time because I took a fancy to this guy who told me that he was very superficial and that looks were very important to him. While I will not elaborate much on how that eventually turned out, I will only say that his statement alone was the start of major issues that had a devastating effect on my life. But I digress. In 2006 I visited a dermatologist and needless to say the expense was a bit too much plus I had to be applying too many topical creams and taking capsules, which I really hated. Not long after I gave up on that and pretty much decided for the next two years to ride out the acne train and deal with the flare ups when they occurred.
