How to get rid of Acne scars Naturally?
« Thread Started on Jun 12, 2009, 8:16am »
Hey gurls, I have read about some natural acne scars treatment, thus I want to share it with you.

Mild acne scars can be treated effectively with natural acne scar treatment. Try the following tips to get rid of acne scars the natural way.

1. Sandalwood is very effective in treating acne scars. Mix it with some rosewater and apply it to the scars. Leave it on overnight and wash it off in the morning.

2. Rub ice cubes on the face to tighten the pores.

3. Cut a tomato in half and rub it on your skin.

4. Use cucumber juice as a toner.

5. Raw garlic is a very effective acne blemish treatment.

6. Take turmeric internally or make it into a paste and apply it to the skin.

7. Sage and Aloe Vera have healing properties. Apply Aloe Vera directly to the skin. Seep sage in hot water, cool and then apply.

8. Apple cider vinegar is good for clearing up spots. Use in place of a toner.

Hi, I get a lot of pimples, and I have had acne scars for AGES. I've tried a lot of these, and yes, they do work, so thank you! =)
But i would also like to say to be careful with some of these- i tried putting raw garlic paste on my skin, and apart from the fact it smarted and stung horribly, it made my skin look nicer the first few times i tried it. however, the fifth or so time i tried garlic, my skin started peeling and blistering after going in the sun, leaving very red, raw wounds underneath. it was pretty horrific, and i ended up looking like the terminator, lol. that was a month ago, and i'm still trying to get rid of the marks. apparantly it's a condition called phytophotodermatitis, and with hindsight, i would rather have had the acne scars. but i guess that's just me, i just wanted to warn others, in case they end up going through what i did. i would recommend testing it on a patch of skin first, because i didn't think i had sensitive skin, but it still happened to me. good luck! =)

PS. equal amounts of lemon juice and sugar massaged on to the skin and left for 45 mins or so also is very effective, but again, be careful, because i've heard lemon and limes can also cause phytophotodermatitis.
