But do not fret. There are so many ways to combat acne at the comfort of your own home. Read on to find out what these are.
STEAM
Steam can help clear the skin from acne by opening up your pores and flushing out all the impurities under the skin.
Pour boiling water into a bowl then let its temperature lower down a bit by allowing it to cool for a few minutes. Take a towel and drape it over your head so the steam will not escape. Place your face above the bowl for 10-15 minutes. Dry your face by patting it with a towel. Steaming once a day is enough but you can do it as often as you like.
