Acne scar removal with strawberries and clay-III
It’s amazing how some everyday ingredients you use for cooking can actually help remove acne scars, like olive oil and baking soda. This is not the end of the list though! Even raw potatoes and tomatoes can help remove acne scars!
Raw potato
Raw potatoes can remove pimple scars if you are ready to be patient enough to see results. You need to cut a potato into round slices and rub a slice gently over your face in a circulatory motion till the potato slice goes dry.
Repeat with another slice for about 15-20 minutes and leave your face to let it absorb the leftover potato juice. Last, wash off after applying some moisturizer which suits your skin. Repeat this raw potato massage 3-4 times a week for 1-2 months, based on the scar intensity, and you are sure to see positive results.
Raw tomatoes
Red tomatoes can remove scars from your face in one of two ways. The first option is to cut a ripe red tomato into pieces. Crush the pieces to form a pulp, apply it to your face and leave to dry for 15-20 minutes. Wash off your face, and repeat this daily for a week or so.
The second option is to make a mask of tomatoes. Remove the pulp of 2 tomatoes. Grate a cucumber and 2 avocados and squeeze out its juice. Mix the juices and pulp and apply to your face for 15-20 minutes. Wash off with water.
Strawberry
Strawberries have salicylic acid, one of the common ingredients in acne medicines. This is why strawberries make a great mask to treat acne and its scars. Take equal quantities of non-flavored yoghurt and fresh strawberries. Mash the strawberries and mix with yogurt to form a fine paste.
Evenly apply the mixture to your face and wash off after 10 minutes. Repeat this regularly, and soon you find your acne scars disappearing.
Clay
The soothing properties of clay masks works wonders on your skin. Use the basic green clay, in powdered form, which you find in the local food store. Add some water or milk and a teaspoon of honey to it to form a paste. Then apply on your face and remove using a washcloth once the clay dries.
While all these skin remedies are great for removing acne scars, some may be more suitable for your skin type than others. The best way to find the best option for your skin is by experimenting with the different remedies. Besides these ingredients, patience is very much essential to ensure these remedies remove your acne scars.
