How to Fade Acne Scars Naturally

photo 1 (9)
Acne. Ugh.
They say to never pop your pimples, but do you really listen to that rule? I, for one, am guilty as ever when it comes to zit popping!
Popping a pimple pushes bacteria from the zit further into the skin, making the area around the acne even more reddened and inflamed. Sometimes, popping a pimple will even cause a brown or red mark to form that could last months. Scars, in the form of dents and pits, can last forever!
Unfortunately, a scar is a scar and there is not a whole lot that you can do about it. But, you can speed up the fading of a scar using nature’s best ingredients!
Here is a little DIY facial mask that you can apply once or twice per week to fade your acne scars once and for good. While you are at it-stop popping!
DIY Acne Fading Facial Mask
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 5 drops of fresh lemon juice (not the fake lemon bottle kind)
Directions
  1. Mix ingredients together in a small bowl until well blended.
  2. Apply topically to the acne scars as a spot treatment only or you may apply it to your whole face as a mask.
  3. Let sit for 30 minutes then wash away with warm water.
  4. Use once or twice weekly.
**Note** The mask may tingle or burn a bit-this is due to the lemon juice. If it bothers you, then omit the lemon juice completely.
