If you struggle with breakouts or skin irritation, it can be tough to find the right products that will clear up your skin and not create further irritation.

If you are struggling to find the right product for your skin, it might be time to try some skin remedies that are a bit more natural and chemical-free. Keep reading to learn about a few natural skin care methods that will allow you to skip the toxins and enjoy smooth, glowing skin once again.

For an easy and natural way of reducing the size of your pores and evening out your skin tone, apply a honey mask for 15 minutes each day. After the mask has had time to settle, rinse with warm water and gently pat the skin dry with a clean towel. There are plenty of ingredients you can add to the honey to improve your skin even further. For example, adding a little yogurt to the mix can help soothe your dry skin. If you are struggling with acne, adding a few pinches of cinnamon will help with inflammation. Honey is antibacterial, which allows it to clear up acne and prevent it from returning by keeping the skin clean.

One of the most recent natural skin care trends is exfoliating the skin with a dry brush. Best done in the morning before taking a shower, this technique reduces puffiness and increases the blood circulation. It also removes dead skin cells for an incredible way of improving the skin tone and keeping it smooth. Be aware that dry brushing isn’t the best solution if you have sensitive skin—it could lead to irritation.

There are a number of acne-fighting essential oils available for a natural way of improving the condition of your skin. Rosemary, tea tree, oregano, all have cleansing properties that can heal blemishes. According to the professionals at herbaffair.com, lavender has healing properties that can keep skin from degeneration, preventing fine lines and wrinkles. Essential oils can be applied to a cotton swab and gently brushed on breakouts or skin irritation in order to reduce inflammation and reduce the risk of scars developing. You can do a little research on the Herb Affair site to see which oils and herbs are best for your particular skin.

 

Have a Nice Steam

When you can’t get rid of pesky acne and breakouts, it may be due to bacteria and dead skin cells that are trapped under the surface of your skin. To open up the pores and remove toxins that have been absorbed, steam your face over a pot of boiling water. You can place a towel over your head, and lean over the steam to help your face soak up the vapors. The technique will help to prevent acne by removing dead skin cells or dirt after exposing it to the steam for 10 minutes. Thoroughly wash your face before and after steaming—while opening up your pores is good for the skin, it also makes it extremely absorbent.

 

Spray the Face with Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a natural toner that calms acne and balances the skin’s pH. Create a mixture of one-third apple cider vinegar and two-thirds of alcohol-free witch hazel for a calming treatment that will absorb quickly into the pores and prevent flare-ups with blemishes. The best method for application is to fill a spray bottle with the mixture and gently spritz your face with the concoction. If you have sensitive skin to begin with, rubbing the mixture directly to your face might increase irritation. However, applying a little at a time will refresh your face by providing a light layer of the natural toner.

If you’ve been struggling to find the perfect skin care regimen to end your breakouts and irritation, it might be time to opt for natural ingredients and techniques to keeping your skin clear. By caring for your skin each day and using household products that you already have in your kitchen, you’ll improve your complexion and allow it to glow naturally. A clearer complexion will mean less makeup, and less makeup means less bacteria and mysterious gunk seeping into your pores. Give these natural methods a try and enjoy the feeling of a clean, clear face, and kiss the breakouts goodbye.
