Treatments
There are many treatments for acne, but I'm not going
to discuss antibiotics here. If you have very severe
acne and/or are very depressed, please discuss this with a
sympathetic doctor or dermatologist. Prescribed oral antibiotics
also destroy the healthy bacteria that live in your gut. A
lack of heathly bacteria in your gut can, ironically, aggravate
acne. There are also many related side effects, including
thrush (candidiasis). If you do have to take antibiotics,
take a probiotic supplement such as Nature's Biotics to help
restore the healthy bacteria and eat lots of garlic.
In my experience, it's far better to clean the skin from
the inside by eating
healthily and drinking plenty of water. However, there
are various treatments you can apply to the skin and
herbal supplements that help.
Top 30 Acne Products eBook
People are often asking us which natural products we recommend for acne, so we've created a fantastic and comprehensive eBook, "Top 30 Acne Products", containing details of some amazing natural products that are great for people with acne. These are products that Karen has personally tried and loved!
Whether you have oily skin, blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, acne, scarring from acne, or are simply looking for some lovely natural products, there's definitely something for you in this eBook.
Aromatherapy for Skin Problems
Use jojoba or almond oil as your carrier oil (dilute 5 drops
essential oil to 10ml carrier oil). Jojoba oil is very similar
to the skin's own oils, has cleansing and anti-bacterial properties
and promotes good skin texture. Coconut oil/butter is also
good, look out for it in health food stores.
- Geranium oil to balance oily/dry areas
- Patchouli to improve texture
- Juniper to detoxify
- Tea tree to clear infections
- Lavender to soothe redness
- Sandalwood to nourish dry areas.
