When you consider how sensitive one’s skin can be it’s hard to imagine that over-the-counter treatments that are filled with chemicals is the way to go to treat acne. For those who have a problem with acne, herbal remedies will offer the treatment that you’re looking for without all of the harsh chemicals that may actually make your problem worse.

With all of the commercials and advertisements offering up quick fixes and practical miracles thanks to some of the mass-manufactured treatments—all conveniently available for the low price of only *fill in the blank* and with free shipping when you buy two or more—it’s not hard to get sucked in. It is easy to understand why someone may be tempted to go that route, but truthfully, people were dealing with acne long before any of the so-called miracle cures were even invented. Botanical and herbal remedies for acne and other skin issues were the only option for years and years so why not go back to that natural and healthy way of treating our skin? What we do know about herbal remedies is that they offer the purest and most natural way to clear your skin and when it comes to acne; the less stuff you put on your skin the better.

For those looking for some simple and natural ways to care for their skin and reduce their acne, the following options are worth considering:

Tea Tree Oil

This natural antibacterial agent has been said to work wonders on acne because it kills bacteria including Propionibacterium acnes, which is the bacteria that causes acne breakouts. According to the Mayo Clinic’s website, gels with 5 percent tea tree oil might be as effective as topical acne lotions that contain 5 percent benzoyl peroxide, even if it does work a little slower. You can find bottles of tea tree oil in most health and drug stores. To use tea tree oil on acne all you need to do is dilute a drop or two of the oil with equal parts water and apply to the skin using a cotton ball or pad.

Saw Palmetto

Though it has long been used as a way to naturally treat prostate problems in men thanks to its effects on hormones; saw palmetto has been shown to help with acne as well. Saw palmetto is said to help balance hormone levels which can be responsible for acne, especially the kind related to puberty and menstruation.

Saw Palmetto for acne treatment is not FDA approved however they neither forbid it's use.

I would suggest before treating yourself with this particular herbal remedy you should consult a doc!

      Orange and yellow fruits and veggies

Fruits and vegetables that are orange and yellow contain beta-carotene, which is an antioxidant and source of vitamin A. It’s been shown that antioxidants protect our cells from damage caused by free radicals, which have been linked to the aging process.  The vitamin A you get from beta-carotene is also crucial for the production of an oily substance called sebum, which is created by the hair’s sebaceous glands to condition your hair and scalp.

With too little of it your scalp would be itchy and dry and your skin brittle and lifeless. You can get high amounts of beta-carotene from carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, cantaloupe, apricots, and oranges. A good rule of thumb when shopping for your produce: the more intense the color is, the more beta-carotene it contains.

     Leafy greens

You can never go wrong with eating more leafy greens because of the impact they have on your overall health as well as your appearance. Leafy greens contain high levels of an anti-oxidant that also belongs to the category of carotenoids like beta-carotene, called lutein. It works the same way on your skin by protecting the cells from damage from free radicals. It’s been found to protect the skin as well as the eyes from UV damage; not as a substitution for sunscreen though. They also contain high amounts of fiber, folic acid iron, and other nutrients known to promote healthy hair growth. You can get the highest sources of lutein from leafy green vegetables, such as kale, spinach, and collard greens. Non-leafy sources of lutein include peas and leeks.
