White Vinegar Method
1) Apply distilled white vinegar to your face as well as other affected areas.
2) Allow this to sit for 5 minutes before rinsing it off with cold water.
Citrus Juice Method
Lemon or any citrus fruit will work great as a natural exfoliate. This will remove dead skin cells that may clog your pores.
1) Apply the juice of a lemon to your face.
2) Allow it to dry for about 10 minutes.
3) Then rinse with cool water.
You may feel a warm sting or burn when the lemon juice is applied. If so, you may dilute the juice with water until it feels comfortable.
Tips for Success
Drink plenty of water while you are using these methods. Water will help to flush harmful toxins out and promote transportation of nutrients in your entire body. This will further help you to speed up the process.
Remember to maintain a properly balanced diet to ensure proper nutrition. Stay away from soda, candy, chips, and other "junk" foods. Consume more organic fruits and vegetables.
Another recommendation is to take a high quality multivitamin to make up for nutrients missing in everyday foods. You can also add other minerals to enhance the effect of the method you have chosen.
Over the years large amounts of vitamin A have been used to treat severe acne cases. However, large amounts, can be toxic as well.
You may want to consider adding additional zinc to your diet. Zinc has been proven to aid in the healing of tissues. It is also important for the body in resisting infection and inflammation.
