QUOTE (No Doubt) Whats the best natural/organic acne cleanser? Okay I wanted to go more natural so I'm looking for a new cleanser that has mostly organic ingredients. What are the bestfor acne prone combination skin? Thanks! Question asked at Yahoo Answers ![]() QUOTE (http://www.acnetalks.com/pimple/Acne-Medication/Natural-Herbal/Organic-Skin-Cleansers-and-Toner-Lotions-for-Acne.htm) Organic products consist of ingredients that are grown in areas with extremely rich natural mineral content. These ingredients are extremely beneficial for the skin. The non-toxic nature of these ingredients ensures that your skin is not exposed to harmful substances or chemicals. These ingredients have an extremely soothing and rejuvenating effect on the skin. Unlike chemical products available in the market that may have side effects, organic products are completely healthy.
Organic cleansers and toners are beneficial for all skin types specially acne prone sensitive skin. These products do not remove the natural oils from the skin and are gentle. Tea tree oil is a very useful natural ingredient for the treatment of acne. It prevents growth of acne by lowering the levels of sebum production by the oil glands in the skin. Chamomile and frankincense are other organic products that are commonly used in cleansers and toners for treating acne. They do not redden or inflame the area and hence are better than other products. A good organic toner should be applied on to the damp skin. This locks the water in the outermost layer and helps in decreasing oil production by keeping the skin hydrated. Oatmeal, ground shells of apricot almond and walnuts are good ex foliating agents. Honey and eggs act as great natural moisturizers. Sandalwood and Margosa are renowned organic cleansers as they help in gently ex-foliating the skin without any side effects. Yogurt acts as a great cleanser as well as a moisturizer. Aloe Vera, lavender, jojoba and olive oil sooths acne prone skin. These products, which are commonly available in your kitchen garden, are an elixir for acne prone skin. Their value in the cosmetic industry has recently been realized. However, do take care before using any product. If the skin is over cleansed or over ex foliated then that may lead to break outs or lesions. In certain cases, it may lead to permanent scarring also. To avoid this, a person should take professional advice before embarking on any self-care regimen. -------------------- If you have the courage to try and the faith to believe, there's nothing in life that is hard to achieve.
