home treatment for acne - #13806
I am really frustrated with my skin right now and need some advice about home treatment for acne. It all started a few months ago, when I suddenly started breaking out like crazy. I’m talking about painful cystic acne that seems to have a mind of its own. I tried some over the counter stuff, but it doesn't seem to help, and honestly, I'm getting a bit desperate. I read online that there are effective home treatment for acne options that people swear by, like using tea tree oil or even honey! I tried that once and it just made me breakout more. Ugh! My friends say diet has a big role too, and I've been trying to watch what I eat, but it's hard! Should I be looking into home treatment for acne that includes lifestyle changes too, or should I just stick to topical solutions? Plus, I've tried a couple of DIY masks and they either dry me out or do nothing. Does anyone have experience with home treatment for acne that actually works? Is there something I’m missing? I feel like I need a game plan or something because I really don't want to end up with scars or anything. Any suggestions would really help!
