AcneIsACurse 42 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Im currently putting non iodized sea salt with water on my face twice a day, and it really helps to dry out pustules and get rid of them quickly. But it don't prevent new pimples, it just deals with current active pimples. What are some good natural tropicals that don't contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid or any of those things and that prevent new breakouts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

onefatalgoose 181 Share Posted June 22, 2012 It's good for both. And here's some reviews of it that you can find on this site. Also when applying topically, it's only as effective as it is concentrated, if that makes any sense. So the more tea bags you have per cup of water=stronger solution. I talk about this in the post/>http://www.acne.org/green-tea-reviews/207/page1.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
