    Hey gurls, I have read about some natural acne scars treatment, thus I want to share it with you.

    Mild acne scars can be treated effectively with natural acne scar treatment. Try the following tips to get rid of acne scars the natural way.

    1. Sandalwood is very effective in treating acne scars. Mix it with some rosewater and apply it to the scars. Leave it on overnight and wash it off in the morning.

    2. Rub ice cubes on the face to tighten the pores.

    3. Cut a tomato in half and rub it on your skin.

    4. Use cucumber juice as a toner.

    5. Raw garlic is a very effective acne blemish treatment.

    6. Take turmeric internally or make it into a paste and apply it to the skin.

    7. Sage and Aloe Vera have healing properties. Apply Aloe Vera directly to the skin. Seep sage in hot water, cool and then apply.

    8. Apple cider vinegar is good for clearing up spots. Use in place of a toner.

    More info here:
    Acne affects as much as 80% of teenagers and others in their early twenties, while most get out with only a few minor acne scars, some even without any at all; there is also a notable percentage that suffers from acne scars.

    There are two types of skin problems caused by acne that can be recognized as acne scars, one is the red pigmentation that appears after acne has healed. These contrary to popular belief, are not scars, rather, these are post-inflammatory lesions which occurs as the acne heals, and these can be present for up to 6-12 months. If however the pigmentation that you see lasts longer than the said period, you may be facing acne scars.

    Acne scars come from connective tissue that the body uses to repair damage done to a certain area. Together with antibodies and white blood cells, they work together to heal the wound. After the healing process, you are left with a scar.

    Does putting AHA on your skin work?
