So you went on vacation and forgot the sunscreen and ate all sorts of sweets. What were you thinking? So not only do you have a sunburn but you’ve got to worry about how to get rid of acne at home. First off, knock off the sweets.
Don’t Eat Like You’re On Vacation
It’s time to get back to a healthy diet of fresh vegetables and fruits and drink lots of water to rehydrate that poor skin of yours and allow it to flush bacteria and other irritants out of its system. Add a little bit of lemon to at least one of those glasses of water. And whereas the natural vitamin D from the sun may have helped treat your acne to a point, you clearly should’ve used sunscreen to prevent skin damage.
What To Do About Scarring
If acne has been a recurring affliction of yours you may possibly find yourself dealing with how to get rid of acne scars. There are of course extremely invasive methods such as peels, dermabrasion, laser and light treatments; but who can afford those? Lemon once again comes into play here. You apply the juice to your face and let it do its thing for about 15 minutes before washing it off. It is said to lighten the scarring.
Wash your face gently with warm water and alternate cleansing products. Aloe will also be of assistance.
