Homemade Acne-Fighting Masks

Important! Always consult your doctor before trying these or any home remedies. "Natural" does not mean it is safe for everybody.
Honey mask for acne: Apply a tablespoon of warm honey on the affected area and let it work for a few minutes. Then wash with warm chamomile tea. This treatment should be done at least 3 times per week, but it can be done daily if you want faster results. It is also a good remedy to remove marks left by the acne.
