skincare 01

Few things enhance your attractiveness as much as clear skin and a glowing complexion, but it sometimes seems like the world is set on keeping them forever out of your reach. We’ve all had the horrible experience of breaking out the day before a date, having our flawless flesh marred by burn scars, or developing unsightly skin tags right where everybody can see them.

Thankfully, we don’t need to be stuck with blemishes forever. There are lots of ways that you can perfect your skin and remove any marks, scars, lumps, or bumps that are getting in the way of the complexion you’ve always dreamed of. We’re seeing a lot of paraben-free products too, which is fantastic. Here are a few that you might like to try… Here are a few that you might like to try…

#1: Home Remedies

The best place to start, in terms of both your wallet and their invasiveness, is with home remedies for scars and blemishes, and there are plenty around for you to test. Tea tree oil, lemon juice, tomato juice, and banana peel are all incredibly easy to get your hands on, and could do wonders for your skin. A quick Google search should reveal plenty of recipes and concoctions for you to try. Even if these don’t fix the problem, you’ll usually find that you’re left with incredibly soft and dewy skin, and they’re guaranteed to be gentle enough for even the most sensitive faces.

#2: Over the Counter Treatments

If you try some home remedies and find that they don’t help, over-the-counter treatments should be your next port of call. As a rule, most won’t be overly harsh, as they have all been approved for use without medical supervision, and categorised as safe for the general public. There are all sorts of solutions available, from products like Bio-Oil, which can be rubbed into your skin to help fix blemishes, to more specialised treatments for specific issues like warts, skin tags, or areas of pigmentation. You’ll find that most products have plenty of reviews online, so the internet should help you to gain a good idea of what works best.
