Summer is the best time to flaunt a sexy back, but many women shy away from wearing bikinis or backless dresses due to back acne. If you too suffer from this common problem, try one of these homemade masks to get a glowing back.
1. Oatmeal-honey mask:
Oatmeal helps rid of excessive oil from the pores of your back, thereby preventing acne. Cook oatmeal and let it cool for sometime. Add a tablespoon of honey and apply it on your back. Keep it on for 20 minutes and then wash it off with cold water.
2. Tomato mask:
A rich source of vitamins A and C, tomato is a useful home remedy to cure back acne. Crush a tomato and apply the pulp on the affected area. Wash with cold water after 30 minutes.
3. Turmeric-mint mask:
With their anti-inflammatory properties, turmeric and mint help prevent the spread of back acne and also reduce itching sensation. Mix mint juice and turmeric and rub it on your back. Use lukewarm water to rinse after 15 minutes.
4. Rose-lemon mask:
As a natural astringent, lemon removes extra oil from the skin. Squeeze lemon juice and mix it with equal parts of rose water. Apply this on the back with a cotton ball. You can keep this mask overnight and wash it off in the morning.
5. Cinnamon-honey Mask:
Due to its anti-bacterial properties, adding cinnamon to your diet helps fight yeast infections. However, applying this mask on your back can also effectively remove dirt and bacteria that is responsible for acne breakout. Mix one teaspoon of ground cinnamon with two tablespoons of honey. You can also add fresh lemon juice to this mixture. Rinse after leaving the mask on your back for 15-20 minutes.
