]]>These remedies may or may not work for every individual, but they are not going to damage your skin so it is not a bad idea to give them a try if you like.
Home remedies for clear skin have been helping to promote healthy skin for as long there have been people suffering from acne problems. Some of the remedies may seem a little strange, but for the most part the clear skin home remedies that most people use are not harmful and may even help your skin’s health overall.
Honey and cinnamon powder – This is as simple as mixing honey and cinnamon powder into a thick paste and applying directly onto your skin. This paste works well as an overall mask or as an individual spot treatment for specific acne blemishes. Just leave the paste on overnight, rinsing off thoroughly in the morning using cool water.
Orange peel – Using the peel from an orange is one of the very best home remedies for pimples and lesions. You can apply the peel directly to the areas of your skin needing some help, or grate the peel and use water to make it into a thick paste before applying to your skin.
Tea bags – Using two to three tea bags, empty the contents and mix with dried basil. Let the mixture sit for about thirty minutes, then apply directly to your face either as an overall mask or a spot treatment for pimples and acne lesions. Leave on your skin for fifteen to twenty minutes and then rinse with cool water.
Mint juice – Grate or grind fresh mint leaves and squeeze out the mint juice. Apply the juice directly to your face using a cotton ball or your clean fingers. Do this each night, leaving the juice on your face overnight.
Aloe vera – Choose cleansers and skin products that contain aloe vera, as this is a very gentle treatment for your skin that gets rid of excess oils without leaving behind excess dryness. You can also apply pure aloe vera gel to the skin as a cooling moisturizer.
If you decide to use any of these home remedies for clear skin, remember that they do take some time to start creating the kind of results you want. Choose a remedy and make sure you use it consistently over the course of at least two to three months; at that point you should start seeing some changes that will continue if you keep using the remedy regularly and consistently. Using home remedies for clear skin is a terrific way to work on improving your skin and reducing acne without using harsh chemicals or ingredients on your face.

]]>If you happen to have skin that is dry, home remedy skin care options are probably on your mind quite often. To put it another way: those who have dry skin want it to go away!
The good news is that there are a lot of options, though not all of them will work for everybody. Yes, it may take a bit of trial and error to find the remedy or remedies that work best for you, but it will be worth it if it means your skin looks and feels great.
A quick word of warning is in order. You should always talk to your doctor or dermatologist about any health concerns that you have. There is always a chance that your dry skin is the result of another health problem, and only a professional will know for sure.

Many man made ingredients in modern skin care products are loaded with chemicals that, over time, really irritate the skin. There is also some worry about what these chemicals can do to your body, since they are absorbed into the skin. For example, one of these ingredients is called sodium laurel sulfate. You’ll see it in a lot of shampoos, body lotions and foaming cleansers – and also in machine lubricants. Ouch.
Seeing The Difference
Many not-so-natural skin care products still contain some natural ingredients, but only about 20% – 80%. If you are looking for 100% all natural skin care products, then you need to get your reading glasses on and read those ingredients labels. Unnatural ingredients usually have jawbreaker names that take up nearly a while line on the ingredients list. Natural ingredients include essential oils, minerals, water and fruit extracts. Things like shea cocoa butter are also natural. If you are not sure of an ingredient, then ask the company for more information or look up to see what the product is.
If you are looking for organic natural skin care products, then you need to see that the product is certified organic by the FDA (if you live in America). Many countries now have national standard setting organizations, such as China and the European Union. Anything considered organic by the French group IFOAM (International Federation Of Agricultural Methods) is a plus; these standards are considered stricter than the FDA’s.
When In Doubt, Make Your Own
If you are getting a headache from figuring out what goes on your skin and what shouldn’t, you can always make your own natural skin care products. There are many easy to use aromatherapy and natural skin care recipe books, magazines and websites. You will use things like water, honey, arrowroot powder, lemon juice, herbal teas and essential oils.
And remember – no natural skin care product will help your skin if you are not exercising regularly and eating a sensible, low-protein, balanced diet.
