Submitted by Don

Cover the blemish with a dab of honey and place a band-aid over it. Honey kills the bacteria, keeps the skin sterile, and speeds healing. Works overnight.

And put it all over your face. just something i heard. But i will try this though. WHAT THE HECK LOL   awesome Comments By: blowfly on 2011-04-10 I've been using it for a week now - no new breakouts, great healing for zits that I picked, great reduction in the dark spots from areas that I scarred. If it keeps up this way, I'm completely done with benzoyl peroxide, salcylic acid, sulfur, and every chemical product that irritates and dries out my skin without stopping any new zits. Try it - different things work for different people, but you have nothing to leave. Honey definitely has anti-bacterial properties and has been used for wound healing for centuries.   Killing the acne bacteria Comments By: Amy Adinda on 2011-07-22 Killing the acne bacteria using antibiotics is a fruitless and destructive approach. Taking antibiotic is destructive because it upsets the natural balance of the P.acne in our body, eradicates the good probiotic bacteria and enables the intrusion of harmful bacteria to skin. Taking antibiotics is fruitless because constant intake of antibiotics will eventually cause the p.acne to become resistant to antibiotics. It is a fruitless approach also because it doesn�t stop the environment that caused the P.acne to multiply. The only way to stop acne permanently is to neutralize the acne environment (when the bacteria multiplies and feeds on blood toxins and excessive production of oil). To stop acne, you must balance oil secretion and discharge your body from accumulated toxins and control the nutritional, hormonal, psychological and environmental triggers.
