Vitamin C should be a part any acne home treatment. When used topically, it can promote healing. For thousands of years fruits have been made into ointment, creams and cleansers for the treatment of acne, and to keep skin looking smooth and supple. Oranges, lemons, grapefruit, peaches, papaya, strawberries, kiwi, cantaloupe and honeydew melon are favorites for skin care because of their pleasant aroma. The pulp of the fruit can be mashed and used as a cleansing scrub, or mixed with other ingredients to make a nourishing mask that promotes healing. Citrus fruits also have natural antiseptic properties that kill the bacteria that cause infection. Lemon juice can be added to baking soda to make an exfoliating face wash and lighten the appearance of scars.
