Home Remedies For Pimples: Oatmeal

Home Remedies For Pimples - Oatmeal!

Oatmeal! This low sodium, high fiber breakfast treat is great for you heart, your cholesterol, your muscles… and for treating your zits?

You love to eat it, but did you know it’s an excellent and soothing remedy for making those nasty pimples go away?

* Buy yourself some whole oats. I suggest some organic bulk oats, but plain old fashioned Quaker oats will do as well.

* Make sure the oats have no additives.

Important: You do not want instant oatmeal. You want the real thing. Again, you do NOT want instant oatmeal. Instant Oatmeal is loaded with ingredients that will counter the great benefits to your skin.

* Cook It Up:

Mix 1 part oats to 2 parts Water. So if you want about a cup of oatmeal, make it a half a cup of oats and a cup of water.

Stove:

1. Bring your water to a boil.
2. Add your oatmeal.
3. Drop the temp to about two-thirds.
4. Let it cook for about 5 or six minutes

Microwave:

1. Put the oats and water together in a microwave safe bowl.
2. Microwave it for about a minute and a half.

* Do NOT add anything to the oatmeal. No salt, no sugar… and if you add butter I’ll reach my hand out from this blog post and virtually slap your sorry ass. :)

* Let the Oatmeal cool for a few minutes. You still want it pretty warm for application, but don’t be an idiot and burn yourself.

* After it has cooled, gently rub the oatmeal into the target area.

* I suggest gently rubbing small amounts into the skin then completely covering the area.

* Let it set on the target area for about 15 minutes. If it is still warm, let it sit for a couple more minutes.

* Then wash your face completely.

Do this once every other day for 6 days, then everyday for a week. As long as you’re not being an idiot and obsessively picking at your pimples, this therapy will signficantly improve skin texture and greatly minimize the appearance of your zits.

I hope this helps. I’ll be back in a couple days with some slighly more funky home remedies for pimples than oatmeal. Oatmeal just isn’t the funkiest, is it?
