Tips for Getting Rid of Your Acne

Are you stressed out? Are you stuck in a routine that consists of you on the go 24/7 working, taking care of the kids, the house and the bills? These types of things can trigger acne at a more rapid pace. Cold weather also takes a toll on our skin as it looses its moisture and causes premature wrinkles. So it is important to take care of your skin even beginning in your twenties. Get a routine down where you moisturize regularly in the morning and in the evening. I like to moisturize in the same routine as I brush my teeth, that way I never forget. Most over the counter products can be really pricey as far as reducing acne, uneven skin tone, not to mention unnatural. These products can also take a toll on pores by clogging them and preventing your body to eliminate toxins freely. The use of these products usually result in acne breakouts, allergies, and inflamed or irritated skin due to trapped toxins.

Acne on a Budget

Are you asking yourself "What can I do to clear my acne without spending a fortune"??? Many Americans are faced with the issue of having no insurance.
No insurance means the inability to go to the dermatologist on a regular basis. So what else can you do besides buying over the counter acne medicine. I recently discovered endless possibilities with using Essential Oils. Essential oils can be used for backpain, arthritis, anti aging,as well as acne. I have had acne for several years at the start of puberty and when I began applying makeup. Up until recently, I have had a very difficult time keeping my acne at bay so I would find myself covering my face up with concealer to hide my imperfections. I would some days avoid social confrontation because I was so embarrassed about my appearance. Acne has controlled my life for many years and now I have found Essential Oils to take control of my acne so that I can be the best everyday without the embarrassment.

Solution to Acne?

Let's face it, if you have acne the last thing you want to do is go out in public. I have got the perfect low cost and natural solution... Essential oils. Essential oils can help acne and wrinkles as it acts as an antibacterial solution for your face.

What are essential oils? How do they work?

What are essential oils?

Essential oils are extracted from various parts of a plant using a distillation method. Essential oils are not actually oils, but are rather concentrated liquid forms of the plant from which they were extracted. They can be used by massaging directly on the skin or diffusing the oil into the air to allow it to enter the body though the lungs.

Essential oils can be used as singles or blends. Single oil is one specific oil, for instance, marjoram or peppermint oil. Blends are mixtures of two or more single oils. These essential oils can help improve acne.


The way they work?

* Pass easily through our skin and cell membranes
* Diffuse through the entire body within a ½ hour
* Go directly to the brain through the olfactory bulb
* Affect our feelings and thoughts through our sense of smell since it is our most emotional sense
* Perform multiple functions because of their structural complexity


If you are looking for a natural way to cure back pain, I would recommend essential oils as your daily practice to help you ease your aches and pain. All oils bring oxygen to tissue to promote healthy cells. A single oil can benefit you physically, emotionally, and mentally in more than one way or one area of treatment.
