You still have few weeks in hand before puja; this time might not be sufficient to completely get rid of full-fledged acne breakouts that need long term treatment but proper treatments can bring difference even within few weeks.

If you are prone to getting pimples & acne, it is important to follow a proper anti-acne regime during this time to ensure that new breakouts do not appear before or during the puja. Proper products & treatments can also be very effective to erase the acne marks & spots from your face. So, let us take a quick look at how you can get rid of pimples, acne & acne spots before Puja. 

Regular CTM should be your mantra

As already mentioned in the article ‘Get brighter, rejuvenated skin before Puja – Tips & Tricks’ proper Cleansing- Toning & Moisturizing is always the first step to get rid of any skin problems, including acne & acne marks. However, when your primary objective is to fight acne, it is important that you use proper anti-acne products for the CTM routine to get the desired results.

Cleansing

Proper cleansing of the skin is extremely vital to fight acne. Use Fresh Look – Neem & Tulsi face wash twice daily to get the best results.  

Toning

You can prepare an effective anti-acne toner at home by boiling 15-20 fresh neem leaves & 10-12 fresh tulsi leaves in 2 cups of water, till the water gets half. Strain the leaves & store the concoction in the fridge in a glass bottle. Splash the concoction on your face twice daily after cleansing. In case you do not have the time to go through all these procedures, simply use the Neem Water toner from our range. It will help in keeping fresh acne breakouts at bay & will also help in drying up the existing pimples quickly.

Special care for quick healing of acne breakouts

In case, you already have serious acne breakouts on your face you need to include Clear & Clean aqua solution in your daily skin care regime right from today. This pH balanced, essential oil enriched formula controls acne by rebalancing the natural pH of the skin. You should use this solution twice a day along with the Clear Off Anti Pimple Face Pack if your acne condition is serious. The Clear Off range has been specially formulated to treat acne & acne spots quickly.  

Moisturizing

Even if you have acne that does not mean that your skin does not need nourishment. So, do not skip moisturizing in fear of getting fresh breakouts. After cleansing & toning your face, apply the Neem Gel which is specifically formulated to meet the needs of acne prone skin. This gel will help not only in subsiding the existing acne but will also prevent fresh pimples & skin allergies.   

Exfoliate your skin religiously but cautiously

For skin with acne, exfoliation can be tricky. When there is active acne breakouts, it is not suggested to scrub the top skin of the acne in any way. However, once the acne has subsided exfoliation is the most effective way to get rid of the unwanted spots left by it. Exfoliating your skin properly with the right product is most effective to control breakouts as it helps in clearing the skin pores, preventing formation of fresh acne & pimples. For anyone with acne or acne scars, Skin Eraser – Liquid Scrubber Neem is the best exfoliator.

Home treatments to get rid of acne spots & marks

Some natural home treatments can be very effective to get rid of acne spots & pigmentation. Check out the best ones that are really effective,

Honey & Oatmeal pack for acne

For removing acne scars & marks, honey & oatmeal pack added with few drops of fresh lemon juice can be really effective. Soak 3 spoons of oatmeal in little water for 5 minutes & then add 2 spoons of honey to it. Finally add few drops of lemon juice & apply the pack onto your face. Leave on for 15 minutes and then first rub your face lightly with wet hands & then wash off with excess water.

Pure honey is a natural anti-bacterial agent & has excellent skin nourishing properties. Oatmeal on the other hand, absorbs excess oil from the skin & offers exfoliation. The lemon juice added to the pack helps in lightening the acne marks & spots.    

Turmeric & Aloe Vera for acne treatment

To control acne breakouts turmeric & Aloe Vera pack can be an effective solution. Make a smooth paste with 4inch of fresh turmeric root & add 1 spoon of pure Aloe Vera juice to it.
