homemade remedies for pimples - #19036

Kiaan

I am really frustrated with these pimples that just won't go away! A few weeks ago, I noticed some small red bumps on my cheeks and chin, and I thought maybe it was just stress. I tried to ignore them, but they started getting bigger and more painful. I went to the derm, and he prescribed something but I want to try out some homemade remedies for pimples too, 'cause honestly, I've heard good things. My grandma always swore by natural treatments, like honey and tea tree oil, but I'm not sure what's actually effective or safe. I tried a little baking soda paste, and it seemed to dry them out, but my skin also felt super tight and irritated after… not sure if that’s normal. And then my friend mentioned using lemon juice... sounds a bit harsh, right? Anyone out there have luck with homemade remedies for pimples? Like, what worked for you? I just want to find something gentle but also powerful enough to clear my skin up. I mean, I've never had issues with this before, and it's driving me insane. Just looking for some advice!
