Cinnamon with Honey
Cons:
Stings a little
I have incredibly sensitive skin. I'm a redhead so I burn easily and synthetic chemicals in laundry detergents and shampoos irritate my skin. I'm also prone to hormonal acne which has drastically improved since I began BC pills and retin-a cream. For some reason, I broke out a ton this week. I'm guessing it is because I was stressed over an exam.. Anyway!! This morning I mixed honey and cinnamon, (maybe two parts honey to one part cinnamon?) and applied it to my blemishes (not my entire face because the rest of my skin looks awesome) and I watched Kathy Lee and Hoda. Then, about 45 minutes later, I rinsed it off and moisturized. I was SO impressed when I looked in the mirror. Everything has shrunk by at least 50%. The overall redness is 70% improved and the blemishes themselves have tightened up and look like they are well on their way to healing. I'm going to try this again tonight and tomorrow, and I'll post again.

Pros:
* Honey is known for its moisturizing properties and acne fighting agents
* Cinnamon has its anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory properties just to name a few.
* The combination of cinnamon and honey seems to be a "crime fighting duo". Counteracting many popular ailments such as obesity, cancer, brittle hair etc.
Cons:
cinnamon stings (just as most of the other potent natural acne cures)
Only aboard the "cinnamon and honey ship" for 1 day. Cinnamon and honey mask I used contains- Neem oil, tea tree oil, cinnamon and honey and Kaolin powder.
Neem oil works the same as lavender oil, emu oil should be added also to speed up acne/ scar healing.
Try it!

Amazing
This face mask has done wonders on my skin! I make the paste like 1 part cinnamon and 2 parts honey and heat it for 2-3 seconds on microwave and apply it. I leave it on for 10-15 minutes. It reduced the size of my cystic pimples. Guys if you have really stubborn cystic pimples try this. I guarantee you, You will see results in the very first week. Yes, it stings and causes redness but that is temporary. Make sure you use natural cinnamon. All the best!

Pros:
none
Cons:
I applied cinammon mixed with honey to my face and over the course of about ten minutes, it got extremely uncomfortable. I had to remove the mask to relieve the pain, which was a terribly messy process. My face was left red for a good couple hours.
perhaps its just me. honey by itself was fine. the cinnamon was terribly inconvenient.

Pros:
Smells good
Cons:
Burned my face
I mixed a tiny amount of cinnamon with water, patted the cinnamon water on my face, and within 30 seconds it started to burn. I rinsed it off immediately with cold water, and it left my face bright red for hours. I eventually got the redness to go away by holding an ice pack to my face for an hour, but to the touch my skin was still tender the next day. My skin isn't even normally sensitive at all.

Cinnamon with honey
Pros:
None
Cons:
Stings & reddens the face
I tried cinnamon with honey. I dint equally measure them at first. I kinda used a bit more of cinnamon than honey.
It did sting. But, I left it on for around 20 minutes. Washed it off to find my face all red & my face continued to prick for the whole day.

Pros:
Works amazingly well to sooth and buffer pimples and smells good!
Cons:
Stings a little may cause some redness
HAS TO BE USED PROPERLY! Mix approx. 1 teaspoon with an egg YOLK and apply all over face and leave for 10 minutes to dry. Whisk remaining white a little with some lavender oil and apply on top of the yolk. Let dry for half and hour. Then gently scrub off with a clean face cloth and COLD water. Face may be a little red but it subsides and your pimple will be greatly reduced in size.
However do not mix the Cinnamon with the egg white, it'll sting and burn horribly.

Pros:
smells very nice, exfoliates dry skin and dead cells well, leaves skin smooth and soothes acne
Cons:
may sting, particles can irritate acne if you scrub harshly.
i use this as a weekly scrub to have that nice clean feeling. It gets rid of the dirt and dead skin that has built up. hasnt exactly gotten rid of my acne, but it makes me feel good and fresh.
mix equal amounts of yoghurt and cinnamon powder (i suggest one teaspoon for the face. 2 tablespoons for entire body).
and remember to exfoliate VERY VERY gently, or your zits will rupture and scar.
Pros:
Effective
Cheap
Easy
