^ panu exactly paggmit ng garlic sis? straight clove ang irrub mo or kailangan mo pa durugin un garlic?

[angeline24]

Sis Clei, agree din ako sa calamansi plus magiging smooth pa ang skin mo. then take ka ng Vit C everyday. Plus drink a lot of water.

Nabawasan na ba ang mga pimples mo? Kaya takot din akong gumamit ng mga cream eh. Minsan try ko din muna sa mga arms, elbows and knees ko bago sa face ko. Pag hiyang sa ibang parts ng body ko meaning hiyang din sa face ko.

[clei]

^ nag-dry na mga pimples ko, pero my mga bgo na naman! i hate it na nga eh, yaw ko ng tumingin sa mirror. lalo lang ko nai-stress eh..hahaha

[angeline24]

^ pero di mo pa naman na-try na magpatingin sa derma?

[clei]

^ dpa nman. hopefully before the month ends mkapunta na din ko

[angeline24]

^ ah oki. baka kasi hindi na din kaya ng mga home remedies. goodluck sis. sana mawala na yan.

[clei]

^ im trying now yun ACV, wait pa ko for a week bago ko masabi kung may effect nga. il inform you na lang sis if its working. hopefully mag-work na para msave ko and not go to derma na.

No need na durugin sis, rub m lang. . Kpg mejo mhapdi tgilan mo na kc pg sbra nkk iritate, mrrmdaman m nman if dpat m na i'stop. .

Effective [textspeak!] yan sis maliit kaagd.
Try m n kc yung eskinol mix w/ dalacin capsule.
It's good s mga prone s pimple.

[wowry]

eskinol mix with dalacyn c is really effective but then when u use it regularly na your pimples will be immune to it na rin:(

tinry ko dati honey+calamansi. apply thinly sa face then overnight na yon. napansin ko, nagliitan zits ko after. and sabi ng tita ng boyfriend ko, parang naka blush on daw ako kasi medyo dewy at pinkish yung face ko. ginawa ko to for  3 weeks and dumating sa point na kinatamaran ko na mag apply.

I am a great believer in facial steaming as it removes pollution and dirt and dislodges dead skin cells.  It's one of the simplest, most inexpensive facial treatments you can do at home. If you have minutes to spare, you can reap some great benefits for your skin with some warm water in a pot or bowl and a towel.  Among other potential benefits, facial steaming might help control or reduce acne breakouts in some instances. It can also boost circulation and draw blood to the surface of the skin, giving your face a warm, healthy glow.

the ff works for me, as i've personally tried them

sulfur soap (kauffman)
safeguard (white)
clean and clear facial wash (orange)
bragg's apple cider vinegar (oral, 1-2 tbsp a day)
bragg's apple cider vinegar topical, diluted as toner

and recently, my current HG:
hydrogen peroxide!

I apply ice if it is the type of pimple that hurts, has a bump, turns red and has no head. This is the so called hormonal pimple. I have two of these just 4 days ago. It tones down the pain, bump and redness. I apply clindamycin solution(from my dermatologist) and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% every night. Then, viola, my pimple is cured after 3 days with no trace of scar or spot.

eto gawain namin ng sister ko nung HS pa lang ako. Yung labanos, gagamit kami ng peeler para maka kuha ng manipis na manipis na piece ng radish na good enough to cover yung pimple tapos ilalagay sa part na may pimple. May stinging sensation sa affected part, medyo mamumula pa. Pero after ilang sessions, nag ddry na yung pimple.

To visibly reduce pimples, put toothpaste on it (only the white one) not the gel kind.  You don't need a lot, just a dab on the pimple, and gently rub it in so you can no longer see the toothpaste. Make sure you do this right before you go to bed. As soon as you wake up in the morning, gently wipe it off with a damp cloth. The pimple should be visibly reduced.

i tried acv before. effective in lessening oil in the face. but for pimples, walang effect. so i stopped.

i tried calamansi din straight to my face, pero yung juice na na nilagay ko isang container. pinapahid ko sya sa buong mukha ko.  natagalan ako sa effect at wala akong makitang effect so i stopped, hehe.

i also tried the garlic na i-rub sa face. effective 'to, miracle talaga. wala agad ang pimple the next day. sa mga cystic naman, it may take a while pero mawawala rin. pero mahapdi talaga sya.

ang dami ko nang na-try no? hehe.  pano yung honey+calamansi? honey na lang ata ang di ko pa na-try. hehe

[bluewingedangel]

ako i use ACV internal as a drink then external naman as a toner. to moisturize my face, i dont use creams, i just use plain EVOO - olive oil. surprisingly nag clean naman ang pimples ko almost two and a half weeks ko na ata ko ginagawa. nagbreak out kasi ako from using BB cream, but now dried up na ang pimples ko. patience lang talaga kelangan pag home remedies.

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion.

[tikitakz]

try baking soda mixed with a little water it also dries up pimples, i do this once a week to reduce pore size   o kaya benzoyl peroxide 2.5% o kaya clean & clear active clear speed gel

[OD]

Milk of Magnesia used as spot-treatment for the zits. It dries it up like the Sahara desert and lesions don't get inflamed or too red even with repeated usage for several days, unlike when you use sulfur-based medications and exfoliative preparations e.g tretinoin. However, i believe this is no longer being sold at local drugstores.
