Your face is the first thing people see when they look at you. Whether you are forty, twenty four, or fourteen, you don鈥檛 want to walk around with acne on your face. I have pimples and blackheads sometimes, so I know that when someone looks at me, they are thinking: 鈥淲hy didn鈥檛 you take care of that before you left the house?鈥 But you鈥檙e not really supposed to pop pimples, and when pushing out blackheads, you should be sure to steam your face first for fifteen to twenty minutes.鈥ㄢ
I鈥檓 always reading up on new things, and lately I鈥檝e run across this natural way to cleanse the face that鈥檚 especially good for people with super sensitive skin. First, I steam my face and take a cotton cloth to gently push the blackheads out of my face once I鈥檓 finished. Then I rinse my face with slightly cold water. (Using water that鈥檚 too cold isn鈥檛 good for your face. You鈥檙e trying to close the open pores on your face, but you shouldn鈥檛 shock and stun your pores with extra cold water.) Then I鈥檒l take about one fourth cup lemon juice, a half teaspoon of baking soda, and about a nickel sized dollop of honey. I mix them all together and gently start to apply and massage into my face. After two to three minutes of massaging, I鈥檒l rinse my face. Then I鈥檒l blot my face with a towel that has a light color to make sure it鈥檚 properly cleansed. For toner, I use witch hazel which is the best natural toner out there. Then I鈥檓 done. 鈥ㄢ═his cleansing ritual also works really well for people with chest and back acne too.
I鈥檓 taking Biotin. It鈥檚 helped my hair grow, but it has also helped my face. I鈥檓 not as oily and, at the end of the day, my skin feels a lot better鈥攊t feels firmer, replenished, and hydrated.
Try this little home remedy for yourself and let me know what you think.
