Acne war

Many of you know all about the troubles of acne. I am very well known of all of the troubles that come with this battle. You have to wake up in the morning and encourage yourself to look in the mirror. Maybe you will see a beautiful princess staring back at you with not a blemish upon her skin. But most likely you will see the wicked witch of the west with a big ZIT on her nose (or chin in my case). This has been happening to me for most of my semi-adult life and I am sick and tired of it.(Note how the girl in the pic is using a blackhead remover even though her skin is silky smooth, I find this preposterous)

I have used various products and they all seem to work.... at first. Then my skin gets used to them or builds up a bigger defense wall and boom. The acne is back. So this time I am going all natural baby! You heard me. Natural. This means using the wanderful products arround that arent made specifically for zapping those zits.


I have been reading it up and I have found various methods to remove the acne from a frowning face such as my own. At the current time I am testing out Lemon juice and man does that bad boy sting. At first I put straight lemon juice on my face and I nearly went into shock from the nerve endings on the pores of my face screaming at me. The pain was so unbearable that I immedetly had to remove the still wet juice from my face.

Upon further research I discovered that you are not supposed to put strait juice on your face. It is supposed to be mixed with a soothing lotion. Way to go Steph for not reading the directions once again. So this time I added lemon juice to some exema thereapy lotion from Aveno that I have. It still stun a little but it is so much less intense then a screaming face.

So for now I will just have to see how this all pans out.

Tootles!
