As we’ve talked about before, one problem that we all might face at some point in life is acne. Acne sucks, and it’s annoying to get rid of, but if it happens to you, then it just… happens. And we feel sorry for all of you who had to deal with acne at any point in your life, particularly during adulthood.
In most cases, acne occurs among teenagers, during puberty. There are plenty of products out there that claim to treat acne, but as you might expect, you can do just as good of a job at home, using ingredients you might have around the house to create a natural and effective remedy for this teenage nightmare.
One Instagram makeup artist that has been suffering from acne all her adult life is Alexandra Potora.
Here are a few images that show the periods when she was covered with acne when she was younger.
“I have oily skin & all my adult life I’ve struggled with acne. As a result, I’ve also had a hard time with body image & confidence issues. We’re not all blessed with naturally beautiful skin, but it doesn’t mean we can’t have it!” the 33-year-old makeup artist captioned her post.
Among the things she did to stop the breakouts, she listed:
Checking hormones, drinking more water, cutting down on sugar and dairy products, and countless other stuff.

But enough waffle, let’s get on and see how to make this natural remedy!
It begins with 2.5 teaspoons of aloe vera and argan oil.
To accompany the aloe vera and argan oil is 1 tsp. of Niacinamide B3 powder, 5 drops of Frankincense and Lavender oils and 5 drops of vitamin E oil to finish it off.
Combine that well, and then apply it to your face.
