hey my friend told me that putting honey on your pimples makes them go away is that true??

Answer 1

Honey is great for drawing out impurities. It also contains a large amount of potassium, giving it antibacterial properties. For serious cases, try a complete facial mask of pure honey, rather than just a spot treatment.

Soak a cotton ball in warm salt water; press on the blemish for three minutes to help dissolve the top.

Dab a bit of honey on the affected area to deep-clean the pore and draw out any bacteria. Let sit for ten to 15 minutes.

Clean the face with normal cleanser; then rinse the skin well with warm water, then cool water.

Pat the skin dry.

You can't go wrong with this treatment!

Answer 2

Honey is antibacterial antiseptic that no one really knows about, if you have the occasional pimple yes just like toothpaste it will work but if you have regular acne then no you need to have a line of products formulated and designed to fight the infection and grime, I can suggest what finally worked for my two daughters was the medicated acne line by beeroyalproducts.com the scars are even gone now.

Answer 3

I don't know about honey, but Apple Cider Vinegar works and so does toothpaste (get the paste, not the gel)...just dont use them together!!! Just leave on over-night and then wash your face in the morning.

Answer 4

bacteria is unable to grow in honey. honey was used ages ago to prevent infection after an injury to skin. It is possible that honey will help but it is sticky and I know it would not be my choice. I use witch hazel. it is natural and removes oil and dirt.

Answer 5

no, a light lemon, face mask would be good for spot prone skin though, get some lemon some flour and some natural yogurt, mix it all up in a bowl and put it on your face-its a gr8 laugh 2! it makes your skin really soft afterwards, also puting ice on it for about 30 seconds, will help reduce redness

Answer 6
