Nowadays there are countless products available in the markets that are used for treating acne.
But have you ever thought about how people treated acne before the antibiotics and cleansers were created? Well, people used the natural remedies for acne that many of us today have forgotten.
With such huge variety of medications available in the stores and online shops, the natural cures are totally forgotten but they are still as effective as they were in the past.
You might be surprised to find out that you have been trying out different products that don't even work for so long while the actual cure has been lying in your own kitchen all this time.
There are many natural remedies for acne but the trick is to search which one works the best on your specific skin type.
The bad news is that you will have to try out each remedy to see which one is suitable.
But this shouldn't upset you because none of these options has any side effects on your skin.
Following are the few recipes you can try to get rid of acne:

• If you have a lot of blackheads, you should try a wash of milk and lime.
  First of all, boil the milk.
  As soon as you see a gentle boil coming, squeeze half a lime in the milk.
  Let the milk cool down and use it as a face-wash.
  It can be stored in the fridge for a few days.
  
• Whiteheads are best cured with raw potatoes.
  Vitamin C present in the potato makes your skin glow while the alkaline will successfully clean out the bacteria from your face.
  It also gives an exfoliating effect, which will remove all the dead skin cells.
  
• Papaya fruit also gives results like potatoes.
  If you prefer using papaya, rub it gently on your face for a few minutes just like the raw potato.
  This is one of the best known remedies for acne.
  
• After application of any type of natural or chemical product, your skin usually feels a bit dry and rough.
  In order to moisturize it through natural means, you should try almond oil, which is an excellent way of dehydrating skin cells.
  Crush and grind 7-8 plain almonds and add some water.
  Apply this thick paste on your face and wash it off with water after a few minutes.
  
• Buttermilk is also a good moisturizer for skin.
