Home Remedies for Pimples
Pimples are a common skin problem that affects people of various ages but is especially prevalent among teenagers and young adults. The commonest kinds of pimples include whiteheads, blackheads, papules and nodules. Pimples generally appear on the face, neck, arms, thighs and back.
Pimples may be quite painful because the skin pores get blocked. Infected pimples may even form pus. Pimples occur due to unhealthy eating habits, irregular menstrual cycles, pregnancy, birth control pills, medication, stress and so on. It is always advisable to try simple and effective natural home remedies.
Home Remedies
- Toothpaste is effective in treating pimples. Apply toothpaste on the affected area and leave on for five to six hours. The pimple size will reduce by half.
- Apply raw papaya on the pimple. Raw papaya makes the skin soft and leaves it pimple-free.
- Egg white is a great home remedy for pimples. Apply and leave it on for a few hours to tone your skin while controlling the formation of pimples and wrinkles.
- Another excellent cure for pimples involves combining ground nut oil and whole wheat in a lime juice and turmeric paste. This can be used for topical application.
- Rose water is an effective healing agent for treating pimples. Combine this with cucumber paste and apply on the pimple-affected area for half an hour.
- Combine camphor lotion with honey and apply on the face before rinsing off.
- Calamine can also be applied to alleviate pimples.
Follow simple precautions to prevent pimples. Drink lots of water, at least eight to 10 glasses a day. Also, follow a balanced diet that is rich in Vitamin C and Vitamin E. Rinse the face several times a day to remove dirt and germs. Remove makeup before going to bed. These steps go a long way in preventing pimples.
