Consider yourself lucky if you are diagnosed with mild acne, since this type of acne is easier to manage and there are several home remedies, which promises to give you quick relief. However, one important point to remember with mild acne is that using therapies, which contain harsh chemicals may not always give you the results that you are looking for. The ideal treatment option for mild acne would be something, which gives you quick relief but does not harm your skin further.

Here are some natural remedies, trusted and tried in the treatment of mild acne:

•  If you want to get relief from the painful swelling, which usually accompany mild acne, you could take a small face towel and use it to give the affected area some alternate cold and hot compress. This simple remedy not only helps in the reduction of swelling but also helps in the opening up of clogged pores. Remember, blocked pores can make your acne condition more serious.

• There are several useful oils and juices that help in getting quick relief from acne. It may sound strange, but oil or almond is excellent for removing acne scars. Try smearing juice of apricot if you have cystic acne as the juice has a marked positive effect on mild form of acne. You have probably heard about this – cucumber juice is very good for the skin, even in normal conditions. You could use this juice along with lettuce or carrot juice to get excellent relief from acne. Juice of some citrus fruits is also good for acne. For example, smear your face with the juice of one lemon – it would be the most natural defoliant that you can think of. This is also effective in removing dead cells of the skin that usually lead to blocking of the skin pores. Remember that the juice has to linger and dry on your skin for about 10 minutes before you rinse it with plain water. 
• Honey is known for its anti-bacterial properties. Next time you are using a facemask, consider honey mask as it not only purifies your skin, but prevents further acne attacks as well. You could consider using this facemask at least 2 to 3 times a week for best results. 
• Apply white vinegar on the affected surface and let it remain on the surface of your skin for at least 5 to 10 minutes. If the vinegar is too strong, you could even consider diluting it a little, taking care that it does not turn too dilute. Rinse your face with plain water after application.
• Take care not to use cosmetics that contain chemicals and strong ingredients. Every night, make it a routine to wash off all the cosmetics, which were used on your face and use a mild astringent on your skin.
• Of course there is nothing like a balanced diet without the usual processed foods and excess sugars which would help you in your acne treatment, no matter what type of acne you are suffering from.
