Some facts about Pimples/Acne Cure

Posted on January 23, 2006 in Acne, Pimples, Zits

Pimples and sugar, fact or fiction: You might have heard this that giving up sugar help in pimples cure. Well the truth is that it is not yet proved scientifically. Scientists are yet to verify a direct relationship between sugar and pimples. But going by the figures, lot of people have found a decrease in pimples once they control their sugar intake. It is required that you must maintain a proper control over your sugar intake to see the difference. Remember, sugar is also present in drinks, fruits etc. though in small doses.

Honey treats acne: Well, this is true. Honey Oatmeal mask is great for oily skin. Mix some honey and Oatmeal and make a paste out of it. Apply this paste on face and let it stay for 15-20 minutes. Wash with warm water. Oatmeal is going to absorb excess oil from your skin.

What about squeezing blemishes?: Acne lesions should never be picked or squeezed. If you have inflammatory acne, then you have to be more particular about not squeezing them. Squeezing acne forces the infected matter deeper into the skin, which might result in additional inflammation and could also lead to scarring.

    I checked out your site and many others an I have yet to see any one use this old italian cure . Use plain yogurt , half alemon and 1-2 tbsp of honey .I microwave it til it”s nice and warm .It work if you use it every night for as long as needed .I only had to use it 3 nights .I’d get in the shower and cover all of me with it ,let dry for 15 -30 minutes and it helps-pimples ,sunburn ,the red in razor burn ,stops pimples from reoccouring and gets rid of the ones you have .It also gives you smooth skin .I have VERY sensitive skin so I use only the half a lemon ,but my sister uses the whole thing .Trust me it works my family has used it for decades .

    well thanks for the info on honey and oatmeal. I’m urgently in need of help for my face full of pimples.It’s embarrasing

    Listen the truth is you MUST drink TONS of WATER. No matter what honey masks or creams you use it will not work its best unless you drink water. Good luck to all for beautiful healthy skin!

  8. Christina Says:

    Besides drinking water and eating healthy.. Wash your face in the morning and then dab with a cotton ball an oil fighting astringent (I use Clean and Clear but there are many good brands.) Every 2 hours or so wipe your face down with oil blotting sheets. DRINK WATER lol. Around dinner time you can wash your face again if it is very oily. Then before you go to sleep wash your face again with clean and clear foaming facial cleanser. Then put a clean and clear cream on your pimples before you go to sleep. Do this everyday while drinking water and your pimples will go away. I hope it helps!!
