Acne is almost impossible to get rid of with just natural remedies. I'm going to give a list of natural things that "help" get rid of acne. With this list still keep investing in a face wash with salicylic acid. The mixture of both natural and unnatural should make a serious improvement in your skin.

20 Natural Things To Help Your Skin-

1) Lemon Juice- Amazing for nipping a zit before it has time to form. Lemon Juice also is a natural toner, making blemish scars less noticeable.

2) Green Tea- Drink a cup a day. Give it two weeks and your skin will be clear and luminous.

3) Vitamin E Oil- Helps fight the acne and aids in healing.

4) Tea Tree Oil- Works for some people.

5) Cantaloupe- Sounds weird, but works like a charm.

6) Sleep!- Skin does most of it's healing in your sleep.

7) Skip Washings- Skin does need a break. Instead of washing twice a day, try just using a wet wash cloth for one washing.

8) Daily Multivitamin- Without the proper vitamins skin can't heal or protect itself properly.

9) Honey- Natural power to fight acne.

10) Fruit & Vegetables- You are what you eat! If you want beautiful skin, you have to eat healthy foods. If you want your skin to look like a greasy bumpy mess eat junk food. (You can still have an occasional snack, life is too short to deprive yourself of treats)

11) Sun- The skin needs 20 minutes of sun a day. Still, WEAR SUN SCREEN!

12) Water- Yes very cliche. The human body is made up of mostly water. If you not getting enough of it, everything suffers(including the skin).

13) Oatmeal- This will help remove oil from your face.

14) Kitty Liter- I'm not joking, it works. Get the all natural bag of kitty liter. All natural kitty liter is just clay. Mix the kitty liter with water and vuala face mask. This will also get oil and other blockages out of the skin. Instead of paying $100 for a face mask you pay $2.25 for 20 pounds of face mask. (If possible invest in a grinder or a mortar and pestle. I'll make the mask less chunky)

15) Change Your Pillow Case- Not exactly a "natural" remedy. But none the less oil builds up on the pillow making your face break out.

16) Colloidal Silver- This supplement works wonders. It can also be applied to the skin.

17) Ice Cube- Press against forming blemish to help reduce the swelling.

18) Keep Hands Off!- Keep your hands off of your face. Hands are covered with germs and oils.

19) Exercise- Sweating is good for the skin.

20) Tomatoes- The acidity helps get rid of a blemish.

I hope this list was easy and to the point. Hopefully the natural method works wonders.
