If you are suffering from acne it is not necessary for you to buy expensive acne creams and cleansers to make your face acne-free again. There are plenty of easy and effective home remedies for acne which are not only good, but will also not cost you anything.
Acne generally sets in when you are a teenager, when the body is going through hormonal changes. Some doctors say that it is genetic, but it generally occurs to people who have an oily skin. There is a production of excessive oil and this results in clogged pores and infection. This gives rise to ugly pimples, blackheads and whiteheads on the face.
It is also possible to get acne if there is a vitamin deficiency in your body, like Vitamin C, A and pantothenic acid. Hence an intake of vitamins is one of the remedies for acne treatment. The first step in home treatment is to ensure that the body gets enough vitamins through fresh fruits and vegetables, and maybe a multivitamin every morning.
 Other effective home remedies for acne are with lemon, garlic and papaya. In order to get rid of the excessive oil and bacteria on the skin, you can use lemon to cleanse it. Just rubbing your face with a piece of lemon before going to bed and washing it off in the morning will also provide you with Vitamin C.
Milk can be a natural moisturizer for your skin if it has blackheads. Boil a glass of milk and then add juice of half a lime. Once the milk cools down it can be used as an excellent face wash, and the mixture can also be stored in the fridge, so that you can use it several times in a day or for the next couple of days.
Garlic has proved to be an excellent homemade acne remedy. Just extract the juice from one garlic clove and apply it to the areas which are affected with acne. Repeat the procedure several times and
your face will be acne-free. Papaya can be just as effective, and its advantage lies in the fact that it smells much better than garlic. Use mashed papaya as a facial mask and remove it after 10 minutes.
The best thing about acne home remedies is that there are no side effects, because the products that you are using are natural. But the effects of the treatment are slow and you have to be patient and persistent, because only after a week you may feel the difference and sometimes it may take even longer.
