Home Remedy for Acne and Pesky Pimples #5

Home Remedy #4:  Papaya for the pimple prone

Papaya is an essential ingredient in a lot of beauty products on the market today, but theres no need to go out of your way to gain its benefits?  Plain raw papaya is an all natural acne remedy that removes dead skin cells and excess lipids from the surface of the skin, leaving it soft and smooth.  Lipids are a general term for fats, of which oil is a form.  Papaya also contains an enzyme called papain, which reduces inflammation and helps prevent the pus from forming.

Directions:

Rinse your face with water and pat dry.  Mash up the flesh of the papaya well, until it is of a consistency that can be easily applied to your skin.  Leave it on for 15-20 minutes, and then rinse off completely with warm water.  If your skin has a tendency to get dry after you cleanse it, use a moisturizer appropriate for your skin type afterwards.

~ Good Luck
