|
Pimples are always best treated naturally. There are scores of natural ways to get rid of pimples, all of which are usually very effective.
Wash your face two to three times a day with a mild soap. You can also use a special cleanser which is easily available over the counter. Before choosing a brand of soap or a cleanser, remember to check the ingredients thoroughly. You will be better off using a brand with mild ingredients and low a ph factor. You can also use a cleansing pad to scrub your face. Scrub the lather gently so that it does not rob your face of natural oils.
You should always remember not to squeeze pimples. This may spread germs to other parts of the face and lead to infection.. Furthermore, picking at pimples may cause scars.
Using ice-packs is a good way to heal pimples faster. It is better to apply an ice-pack on the affected area once every hour. This prevents swelling and eases pain and sporadic inflammation.
Benzyl peroxide and salicylic acid are effectively used to treat pimples. There are many formulations in the market which have these two ingredients in them. You may apply them either on the affected area or on the whole face. However, excessive use of these two ingredients may cause external dryness. In case you have a sensitive skin type, it is advisable to avoid them completely.
You should be cautious when using make-up. Always go for the oil-free varieties. Remember to remove make-up before you go to sleep. If you fall asleep wearing make-up, chances are it will clog the pores on your skin and lead to pimples.
There is another way which can be helpful if you are in need of a quick solution. Apply a smattering of toothpaste on the pimple. It helps you to fight the swollenness and the redness of the skin.
