As an addition some extra acne home remedies that people have successfully used Toothpaste Dab a bit on the acne spot and leave it until the morning. This is said to dry the pimples out Oatmeal Oatmeal is fantastic for your skin. Will get rid of excess oil and unclog pores. Cleans and softens Use glycerin soap It rids you of that itchy skin, the acne, the dryness. The big soap companies remove the glycerin from their soap (which in turn causes dry skin which develops into many more skin problems) and then put the glycerin in their other products, like lotions. So first they sell you a product that creates a certain problem, and then sell you another to "fix" it. Makes economical sense, but that's about all the sense we can make from it Strictly follow an anti acne program One of the best Acne Home Remedies we came across so far is the acne fighting method developed by an ex acne sufferer called Chris Gibson.

Nov 18, Head Lice Treatment, Chemical Warfare or Bow and Arrow?

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 06:18:29 GMT

When your kids came home one day scratching their heads and you discovered head lice, you declared yet another war on those itchy little critters And then followed the ultimate battle question: "what will be the weapons of choice?" Will we go to war 21st century style, use weapons of mass destruction and drown their tiny little be-hinds with all the nasty chemicals we can get our hands on? Or will we go the well known old fashioned road and try to eliminate our microscopic enemies with bows and arrows? OK enough with the silly metaphors; let's get right down to it, when you or your kids have head lice, would you use pesticides or a natural head lice treatment? Would you go for Lindane or Coconut oil? Permethrin or Mayonnaise? Piperonyl Butoxide or Vinegar? Yes, it is your choice, but I urge you to check these chemicals on the web before you decide which head lice treatment to use. The choice will most probably depend on the effectiveness and the possible side effects on you or your little darlings (I mean your kids...) There are a few things I want to mention on the use of these toxic chemicals in many head lice medications:

Doctors in general agree that if your child is 2 years old or younger, you should never use medicated lice treatments anyway, way too dangerous Another example is the National Pediculosis Association, they stress that parents should never treat their children with products containing lindane. Just to give you an idea, you're not even allowed to spray your tomatoes with this pesticide but it is still used in head lice treatments!
It is a well known fact that with repeated use of these pesticides lice have become resistant to it, so it becomes less and less effective
Beside this they're very unpleasant to use; the chemicals are rather aggressive and can irritate your skin and airways
Breastfeeding or pregnant women or people with allergies and medical conditions are also advised not to use head lice medications
Finally they are expensive

Our simple truth is that we, and many more people, have had better results with home remedies and natural treatments than with all the chemical products out there So if you find yourself or your kids infested take a look in your own kitchen or medicine cabinet or visit the nearest health food store and stock up on one or a few of the next:

Virgin Coconut oil
Vinegar
Extra virgin Olive oil
Cetaphil non-soap facial cleanser
Full fat Mayonnaise
Tea tree oil
Listerine

In cases like these the bow and arrow without any doubt outperform and eclipse chemical warfare. Most of these home remedies "suffocate" or kill all lice and nits with no chance of them becoming resistant to the treatment. So with one of the ingredients above, you will definitely win the war without exposing any one to nasty, unnecessary and potentially dangerous toxins
