Tips and Feedback

Dab your Skin Care troubles away

Beauty and the Beast - the beast being those nasty little things that pop up on our skin overnight - pimples!  Skin Care is part of our daily lives. A few good tips every now and again will go a long way to making Skin Care easier.  Did you know that we are more focused on Skin Care for our Face than any other part of our body?

I wrote a blog a while ago on clearing pimples quickly with toothpaste. I have since read an article that claims Vegemite (an Australian made product of yeast extract used as a sandwich spread) does the trick too.  Simply dab a little on the spots and the pimples will disappear overnight.  The vitamin B content is what makes it work. Simple Treatment, using simple products - makes sence to me.

Here is another tip.  Once the spot or spots have gone, use a cream containing vitamin E and calendula on the spot.  This will help to prevent scarring.

I am an advocate for using Natural Products and for keeping things as simple as possible so I use the bare minimum when it comes to products and the rest I leave to nature.

If using toothpaste and vegemite does not appeal to you, I do have another suggestion.  One of my family members has tried the product, Dermalogica with great success.  The ‘medicated clearing gel’ works well (just slower than toothpaste).  It is medicated with 2 percent Salicylic Acid which helps to clear existing Acne and it also regulates oil production on the skin which prevents future outbreaks.  Dermalogica is also a great Product for Men who are usually anti skin care products. I know this because my husband is willing to use it.  The product has no fragrance, is simple and easy to use and the packaging does not put men off.

Let us know your thoughts.
