Are Natural Anti-Acne Facial Masks Effective?
June 7, 2010 by Staff Writer
Call them by whatever name you want- homemade, kitchen-made or refrigerator-made, natural facial masks overshadow the ready-made anti-acne facial masks obtainable in the market.
The how-to-go-about of an anti-acne mask is pretty easy to follow. Not only should your facial skin be nicely cleaned, it should also be treated with steam before proceeding with the application of acne mask. A facial steam will help the blocked pores to open up and benefit from the facial mask. For extra effects, you may even consider scrubbing your face pre masking. In the event of applying a mask purchased from the market, it will be wisely to test the anti-acne mask on a smaller portion of the body rather than spreading it all over the face in one go and later having to lay up as a serious case of allergy. Also, one has to be careful while removing it off the skin. Either use damp cotton to wipe it off the facial skin or wash it away with tepid water followed by cold water.
If the thought of getting hold of a ready-made facial mask has turned you off and you are seeking some help in order to make homemade anti-acne facial mask, here it is! Camphor, garlic, honey, ginger, tomato, carrot juice, glycerin, egg, lemon, oatmeal, turmeric, orange and baking soda- all or some when applied as a mask work miracles on your acne skin. The exact proportion though has to be seen into. Otherwise these are naturally available products or better call them gifts of nature. There are least or rather no chances of them playing with your skin. So, what are you waiting for? Make a mix, apply it all over and see the results for yourself!
Anti-acne face masks are easy to smear over the facial skin. There are hardly any hassles involved and this is the reason why they are such a big hit amongst different people.










I have tried home made mask couple of times with lemon and honey as part of ingredients. I had small spots of pimples at the time but it cleared in the matter of 3 days. Redness disappeared the very next day!
I would like to try this home made pack recipe next time since I am getting some adult acne due to pregnancy.
