Apples can be a big part of your acne home treatment because they contain malic acid, which removes dead skin. Removing the dead skin cells from your skin is necessary if you are going to heal the acne and keep it from coming back. Exfoliating on a daily basis is necessary. It does not require a harsh scrub. In fact scrubs may further irritate your skin, break open blemishes and cause scabbing and scarring. It is better to be gentle. Grate the pulp of an apple and mix with two tablespoons of honey. This mixture can be used as a face wash or as an exfoliating mask if you want to leave it on for twenty minutes. Rinse away with warm water and pat dry.
