Home Remedies To Treat Shoulder Acne
Acne
is
a
major
issue
faced
among
all
of
us,
irrespective
of
whether
we
are
men
or
women.
This
is
a
very
common
skin
issue
that
occurs
among
everyone,
at
least
once
in
their
lifetime.
But
acne
can
not

appear
on
the
face,

on
the
shoulders.
Some
types
of
acne
can
be
completely
treated,
while
some
keep
occurring
again
and
again.
Like
acne
on
your

shoulder
acne
occurs
when
the
dead
skin,
excess
natural
oil
(sebum)
and
other
impurities
inflame
the
hair
follicles
on
your
shoulders.
Bacteria
can
also
get
stuck
in
your
pores
and
cause
acne
on
the
shoulders.
But shoulder acne or breakouts are not the results of a sudden phenomenon, although these appear suddenly on the skin most of the time. It can be caused due to stress, hormonal imbalance or even due to some foods in your diet. Yes, you heard that right.
Sometimes, shoulder acne can be treated by taking medicines, applying creams, etc. But it is always better to go for natural remedies using ingredients that are easily available in our home.
Let's take a look at what those remedies are that you can try to treat shoulder acne with or if you have an acne-prone skin.

The natural astringent contained in lemon helps in drying out the inflammation caused by acne, open clogged pores and brighten your dull complexion. Lemon also helps in lightening dark skin.

lemon,
cut
it
in
half.

sugar.

gently
scrub
your
shoulder
with
the
mixture.
Continue
scrubbing
for
2
to
3
minutes
or
until
the
sugar
granules
completely
dissolve.
Let
it
stay
for
five
more
minutes.
After
this,
wash
your
shoulder
or
you
can
clean
it
with
a
cloth
as
well.
