How to get rid of acne

Acne can be difficult to get rid of, and we would always recommend consulting your healthcare professional for advice. Here are some additional tips that may assist in the treatment of acne.

  1. Take a zinc supplement: It is well researched that people with acne tend to be low in zinc. Zinc is an essential nutrient that’s important for cell growth, hormone production, metabolism, and immune function.
  2. Use a honey and clay mask: Thursday Plantation’s Tea Tree & Manuka Honey Clay Mask 100g is a great acne solution. A unique triple action formula based on three active ingredients drawn from nature. 100% Pure Australian grown Tea Tree oil which draws out impurities to dry out pimples and blackheads. Natural Kaolin Clay, which absorbs and controls excess oils. New Zealand Sourced Manuka Honey, which minimises the appearance of acne scars
  3. Treat spots with Tea Tree Oil: Tea Tree oil is famous for its antibacterial properties as well as reducing inflammation. Thursday Plantation offer an extensive range of affordable options that can assist.
  4. Apply Witch Hazel: extracted from the bark and leaves of the North American witch hazel shrub, It contains tannins, which have strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Toner 100ml is a good option.
  5. Exfoliate, and often: Exfoliation may improve acne by removing the skin cells that clog pores. It may also make acne treatments for the skin more effective by allowing them to penetrate deeper, once the topmost layer of skin is removed. Shop Scrubs or Glycolic Acid for all your exfoliation needs!
