Some Tips on Acne Remidies
by Keith Londrie
When I was younger, I was teased in school and at home for
something that is a normal, natural part of growing up. I
had severe acne. As a result of which, my peers at school
gave me the unforgettable and highly disgusting name of
�Acne king�. When I look back at those days, to be honest,
if only to myself, I did have severe acne. And I also remember
how desperately I tried to concoct acne remedies to get rid
of the acne and the demeaning name!
The first of these acne remedies grew from a popular misconception. Like millions of others all around the world,
I believed firmly that acne was a result of poor hygiene and
did everything I could to wash the bad skin off. What this
meant in acne remedy terms was that I washed my face upwards
of ten times a day! While I now know that poor hygiene is a
myth and that washing my face constantly, rather than being
useful as any sort of acne remedy probably contributed to
increased acne, I continued to do so under a delusional
belief in its efficacy.
Another acne remedy came from my grandmother. She firmly
believed that acne was a result of poor eating habits (It isn�t!).
And she suggested her very own acne remedy which included
the generous use of basil, turmeric and yogurt to rid my
skin of its oily qualities. While the combination did a
great deal to cool me off from the blistering heat, it
did very little else. And this acne remedy too found
disfavor with me after having tried it out for quite some
time. Another thing that this particular acne remedy did
was to give my skin a yellow pallor, thanks to the generous
use of turmeric. It only made me that much more of a
laughing stock with my peers. I became the acne king with a
turmeric acne remedy!
Yet another acne remedy had its genesis in y sister�s lotions and potions. Being bestowed with far less acne than me, she did
not need to use too many acne remedies. That however did nothing
to stop her f constantly experimenting with me! Her acne remedy
consisted of applying a thick paste of a popular acne remedy
lotion available at the local pharmacy and then sealing it onto
my face by using a bag of ice cubes. Maybe it was an inferior
acne remedy or maybe it was just the numbing coldness of the ice,
but the moisture and the embarrassment combined together to make
my acne worse than it had ever been. My sister soon beat a hasty
retreat from suggesting any more acne remedies.
But the best acne remedy by far was time. No sooner had I completed
my teenage years than the acne miraculously disappeared. No scars.
No telltale signs that I had been the acne king! And although his
particular acne remedy had worked out for the best, I was mighty
disgruntled. If I had known that this was to happen, I would not
have wasted time, money and effort on all those painful acne remedies!
