Re: frugal acne treatment
Baby wipes works great for acne. I've written about this lately. Babywipes (used nightly) really helped to clear up two cases of teen-aged acne and middle-aged pimples in my house.
Think about the logic: baby wipes have to be strong enough to clean up a baby's diaper mess, but gentle enough to coddle delicate baby skin.
Here's another tip. I read about this in First magazine. It's an instant cure for pimples.
Materials: 1) an ice cube 2) cotton ball soaked with eye drops. Steps: 1) Hold an ice cube on the pimple for 30 sec. 2) press the soaked cotton ball onto the blemish for three minutes.
This really worked with a RED pimple (ugh) on my nose: Here's the rationale: the ice and eyedrops solution constrict the blood vessels under the skin, which make a pimple seem to shrink and appear less red.
