Tea tree oil is a popular home remedy for acne. It is an essential oil that is diluted and applied topically to acne lesions.

How is tea tree oil believed to work? Tea tree oil contains a constituent called terpinen-4-ol that's thought to be responsible for most of tea tree oil's anti-bacterial activity. Because tea tree oil can kill bacteria, applying topical tea tree oil to acne lesions is believed to kill Propionibacterium acnes, the skin-dwelling bacteria involved in causing acne.

A face pack of fullar earth mixed with rose water or plain water also helps for acne problems.

@ellabakma,
2 healthy, natural types of food that will cleanse your body’s primary channels of elimination and also flush out acne causing toxins. Just start consuming these 2 types of food daily and you can prevent or minimize breakouts.

@umar,
Applying tea tree oil directly on my skin, as well as numerous other things I do to combat acne has helped tremendously.
