Miracle cure! My acne care routine :)
This is the only thing that gave me relief from very bad hormonal acne. I'm 42...43 in a couple weeks and ever since last summer I have been struggling with horrible breakouts the week before my period and the acne would linger for weeks. I'm a horrible picker and that gave me some pretty bad scarring to deal with as well. My face is very sensitive and anything prescription related would make my skin worse. Here's my routine that I started last week and I have seen a significant change! Anyone with questions feel free to ask. Here's how I'm doing it. First off WASH YOUR HANDS! Never touch your face without washing your hands good first! I learned this the hard way! Then, I wash my face with a mixture of 2 tablespoons of baking soda into 3 tablespoons of coconut oil. Spread the mixture lightly onto your face in small circles focusing on your bad areas. Leave mixture for 10-15 minutes. Let the baking soda and coconut oil donuts magic. Rinse well with cool water and wipe with a CLEAN washcloth. Pat dry or air dry. Now WAIT 5 minutes and let your face fully dry it may seem dry but it's not yet. While you are waiting drop an aspirin into a small bowl and add a couple drops of water to dissolve. After the 5 mins are up get a q-tip and start placing the dissolved aspirin all over your face focusing on your acne. I put it all over my face and under my chin and jawline. Let this sit on your face like a mask for 20 minutes. (Or longer, first few times I let it sit for a half hour or longer) Rinse again with cool water and a clean washcloth and pat dry. After the FIRST application I saw a dramatic improvement in redness and inflammation! Not to mention it REALLY tones your skin and helps to clear up your scars by reducing pore size and exfoliating dry skin cells. After letting your skin dry for another five mins or longer it's time to moisturize with a GOOD moisturizer. I use Hyaluronic acid lotion. This helps restore collagen production and restores volume to dry and wrinkly skin caused by acne, aging and drying caused by other acne products. (Especially useful for those of us who are aging). Repeat this morning and night (with a face wash with ONLY coconut oil around midday if you can). I followed this routine religiously for a few weeks and my skin hasn't been this healthy in a LONG time, if ever. Also, stay away from sugary processed foods and dairy, especially during a bad breakout. Our diets play a HUGE roll in skin health. Good luck!

Holy sh*t
Aspirin is the miracle I needed for my skin ðŸ' - I had had a couple of huge red pimples next to my nose and it had been a month since they first appeared, and they didn't seem like they were going away too soon... I honestly didn't believe this would work but I decided to give it a go... And the next day VOILA!!! The pimples were not red anymore and they had considerably shrank in size! I'm in love with aspirin and I'll keep on using them forever ðŸ' -

Pros:

Helps reduce redness and gives my skin a lovely texture!

Cons:

None really! =)

I used the aspirin mask with just two tablets(that's all it takes to cover my face!) and water and honey. Love it! I used to use it maybe three times a week but found that I needed it more. I use it almost everyday now and find that it doesn't really dry out my skin(I'm oily =D!). I love it. I still do get pimples but they usually don't stay as long as they used to. Plus it's so easy and so quick to make! And I got a little thing of honey for $1 so the whole thing is a great deal and it'll last you a long time.

none

i love this product, easy to make and very effective, i dont have many pimples, just one or two, occassionally, but i wanted to try something that would reduce any redness or blemishes on my face, or just give me an even tone.

Pros:

Cheap!!

Cons:

When I follow the Aspirin Mask with a moisturizer, my skin tends to get red. So I prefer using at night before bed time and moisturize and applu sunscreen the next morning.

It can onlye be used twice a week or skin will go tolerant to this mas

You'll notice you skin soft, smooth and with a little glow. It also get rid of little bumps, help heal acne (it won't get rid of acne immediately). I like mixing 3 tablets of Aspirin ( I prefer Bayer Aspirin with 3 or 4 drops of Hydrogen Peroxide, it's dissolves instantly) and then add a little honey. Apply in circular motion, not to harsh cause the consitency is a little gritty. Sit with the Mask for 20 minutes ( 20 minutes in enough! Staying longer with the mask can cause redness ) Gentle esfoliate and wash your face with cold water. Go straight to bed! Wake up, use a light cleanser following with sunscreen or a moisturizer that contains SPF.

Pros:

Very cheap. Some improvement. Convenient (most households already have aspirin handy). If you don't like the mask, you can keep the unused aspirin for other uses.

Cons:

Messy, crumbly, can be harsh on skin if overused. It's awkward to crumble the aspirin - but I have found that melting them in a small amount of water for 10 minutes before crushing makes it much easier.

I have noticed a *small* improvement in the texture of my skin - all the fine bumps have smoothed somewhat. It's only been a few days and I have noticed any improvement in my acne, but I will wait a few weeks for that. My pores seem the same, but they weren't that big to start with. Immediately after using the mask, the skin feels smooth. But that smoothness fades away hours later, so it might just be due to the aspirin residue and not any real improvement in the skin. I will continue to use for one month to see if it clears up my blackheads and evens out the texture more. It's worth a try!
