So I have very oily skin and have suffered with back - acne (Bacne) for so much of my adult life. This is what I could finally find to work, better even than the prescriptions!
Simple and quite inexpensive. You can easily find these times at the Dollar Tree ($4 for a huge batch).
Into spray bottle equal parts peroxide and rubbing alcohol.
Add Epsom salts 1Tbls for 1.5 cup liquid mix.
Let salts dissolve and spray.
Tada! Hope this helps you too.
Hi, just a couple of questions. Do you leave the spray on and go about your day or do you wait a certain amount of time and then rinse it off? And if you don't rinse it off, then will it bleach your clothes? Thanks for an amazing post!
ReplyDeleteI left it on. It does dry a bit powdery, but if you have super oily skin, that is part of what helps dry it out some.
DeleteOk, thank you so much! I've tried medications and prescriptions but none of them have worked for me either, so I'm super excited to try this! How often should I put it on?
DeleteBe careful! I just tried this and I bleached the top layer of my skin, I rinsed it off as soon as I noticed and because I was already pretty white, so I guess it doesn't look too bad, but it was weird so please be aware!
DeleteWhen hydrogen peroxide comes in contact with skin, it turns white because it is killing the bacteria on the surface, and it is the nature of the compound. It is not permanent, and it does not dye your skin.
ReplyDeleteIf the whitening persists, and is only the dead skin cells, and they will exfoliate off. I'm not a Dr. but as a skin care professional, that has been my experience with it. As always, if you are uncomfortable with something, do not do it.
