10 Home Remedies for Acne or Pimples

Avocado and Honey

Avocado is another food full of skin-loving vitamins and nutrients that can soothe and relieve acne and redness. It is even better when mixed with the antibacterial properties of honey. To make this mask, you'll need one full avocado and one tablespoon of honey. Mash the avocado and mix in the honey until it turns to a paste-like consistency. Cover your face with the mixture or apply it only to your troubled areas. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes and then wash away with a warm washcloth.

Cinnamon and Honey

Cinnamon makes another great mask additive to honey. Because cinnamon has antimicrobial properties, it treats the bacteria that is known to cause acne. You can create a honey and cinnamon mask using 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix them until you've developed a paste. Because honey is the base of this mask, it will be a little stickier than the others. Apply the cinnamon and honey mask to your skin or use as a spot treatment and let it soak in for 10-15 minutes. You'll need warm water to remove this mask and a washcloth to ensure you don't leave any sticky residue behind!
