Natural Acne Treatment! Healing Your Skin Naturally, The Way Nature Intended
Nature has a powerful way of healing the body, and when it comes
to helping you eliminate your blemish breakouts, a natural acne
treatment may be the only solution!
Growing up as a child we were always taught to eat our fruits
and vegetables, take our vitamins, and drink lots of water to
stay healthy. So when it comes to taking care of our skin, why
does society turn to quick skincare fixes, like the
over-the-counter topical solutions that are loaded with
medicinal ingredients we can't even pronounce correctly?
Natural acne treatments have been around for many years, and in
most cases the ingredients can be found in products sitting in
your kitchen cupboards, such as honey, green tea, Echinacea,
Avocado, sunflower oil, and possibly even jojoba.
Using natural products for your acne treatment may be a new
experience, or you may have used other natural treatments that
didn't include certain effective ingredients in your cream
cleanser, or topical solutions, whichever the case may be, I
will explain each natural product and briefly tell you their
features and benefits.
Your Skin's Natural Health Starts With An Effective Skincare
Combination!
Some of the top skincare companies online have taken many of the
helpful ingredients, such as the herbs, fruits, and oils
mentioned above, and have combined them to create a perfect
balance of acne products that are safe for most, if not all skin
types.
Below we have provided a list of natural healing ingredients,
and where they are most beneficial in the battle of blemishes,
and the healing of your acne condition. However, please keep in
mind that although these oil extracts and herbs are natural
substances, they may not be proven to work as they're intended,
or provide the value added features that are claimed in each and
every skincare product. Concentration levels play a large part
in the effectiveness, and should be made aware of when choosing
your desired product.
Natural Antioxidants:
There are a number of select herbs and plant extracts that offer
your skin natural antioxidants such as the Burdock root, Green
Tea, Irish Moss, Kelp, Olive Leaf Extract, Walnut Seed extract,
as well as Witch Hazel, Sage, Vitamin C, B, E, K, Balm Mint,
Chamomile, Linden Flower, Grape Seed, and Pine Bark.
There has been a range of small to significant amounts of
research on the items above, and one thing that has been
established in the researches are the fact that they all offer
antioxidant agents that can be beneficial in your select skin
care products you choose. They will help in getting rid of many
of the impurities in you skin, and assist your skin in healing
naturally.
Natural Antibacterial:
In many of your natural skincare product you will find
properties included such as Cinnamon, Neem, Tea Tree oil, and
Echinacea. These items are known to have natural forms of
antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Unlike many of the
herbs and spices above, many of them may not have proven effects
other than the Tea Tree plant. It has been proven to
be
effective against bacteria that cause blemishes, and usually the
concentration level should be around 5 - 10% to show results.
However, most skin care products only offer less than 1%, which
is considered ineffective.
Natural Anti-inflammatory:
Your acne condition may include inflamed pimples, and many
natural acne products will include ingredients such as Cucumber,
Licorice extract, Oatmeal, and Willow Bark extract. These items
contain anti-inflammatory and also soothing properties, and the
Willow Bark root is known to offer relief to your pain caused by
inflamed blemishes. It contains salicin, which your body
converts to salicylic acid, and provides the same effects of
aspirin.
Natural Oil Absorbing:
If you have done your research, you would know that a build-up
of excess oil on your skin and in your pores are a major
contributor to acne conditions on you skin. Many natural
properties such as the Konjac Root known more as a dietary fibre
benefit, and Charcoal, which is derived from baked wood, and is
mainly made up of carbon, are both beneficial in providing
oil-absorbing features. The Konjac Root is added to many skin
care products, where the Charcoal is normally offered in a form
of a facial mask.
Natural Emollient's and Skin Soothing Properties:
While herbal products contain many natural facial treatment
ingredients to help eliminate pimples and blackheads on you
skin, you will normally find a combination of acne ingredients
with a mixture of natural emollient's and skin soothing
properties.
Such natural ingredients you can find will range from the well
known Aloe Vera, which is more known to promote the healing of
wounds, to many others such as Avocado, Jojoba, Sunflower oil,
Mimosa, Allantoin, Coconut, and AHA (alpha hydroxy acid), which
is derived from various plants sources, or from milk. These
natural items offer your skin a soothing effect, and/or provide
anti-irritant properties.
Acne treatment products that contain chemicals that you just
don't feel are right for you it's good to know that nature has
its way of offering natural healing options to get rid of your
acne blemishes. It is important to really understand how these
natural remedies, or fully developed products work, and it is
also necessary to know the true values of herbal and plant
extract concentrations in the acne solution you're using. Even
though many of the treatment terms claim their offering top
treatment ingredients, you must know that certain natural
properties are no good to you at very low concentrations, and
wind up being another disappointment in your search for a
quality natural acne fighting product.
