Herbal Acne Treatment

Acne is, perhaps the ugliest disease to have on earth. Most prevalent among the teens and preteens, acne may also affect the adults at the adult onset. This disease is found in both the males and the females, though males are most likely to be affected and have a long lasting appearance. It is believed that more than 60% of the male population has suffered from this disease. The symptoms of this disease are skin eruptions and inflammation. It is a disease of the hair follicle or scientifically speaking pilosebaceous unit. In the United States of America, it is perhaps the most common disease found in every other male or female you encounter. As medically known, Acne Vulgaris has the symptoms of blackheads, whiteheads and pimples appearing on your face. It is generally found in the upper part of the torso, such as the face, shoulders, neck, etc.

Once these have been explained, a need for a remedy naturally arises. There are various ointments and pills available in the market which does not even need the prescription of a doctor out of which the Dabur Gulabri – Rose Water (Cleanser, Toner, Refreshner & Moisturizer), is the best. They cure the pimples and it doesn’t appear again. You can simply buy them and apply them as and when you wish. But what’s the use? If you use some other product, the acne will appear once again when you stop applying them as acne vulgaris always has a tendency to recur and these recurrences can’t be prohibited if you use non-herbal creams. Moreover, most of the creams leave a permanent scar on your face which leaves your skin tone uglier than before.

When you have had enough of home remedies for acne such as application of benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid, and even then got no results, it is better to move on for herbal remedies such as Biotique – Wintergreen for Acne which need to be applied on just the pimples and not the other parts of the skin.

Normally the herbal tablets of pills contain Cleaver leaves and burdock leaves. They also contain tea tree oil and clove both of which have various applications other than the cure of acne. The Dabur Gulabari contains rose water which provides and effective solution for you acne problems. But it is suggested that before applying any of these herbal products on your face, just wash your face with a non-comedogenic cleanser which exposes the pores for the ointment or herbal mixture. Results of these how up within a week
