Apply French Green Clay and Use Antibiotics
French green clay is a mineral-rich, absorbent clay with therapeutic qualities. French green clay has strong antibacterial capabilities, claims 2010 research. It aids in removing impurities, calming irritation, and soaking up extra oil that may otherwise cause breakouts.
French green clay is available as a powder for purchase. This powder is combined with water to create a face mask. For a more active natural mask, you may also include other skin-soothing products like yogurt or honey.
Dermatologists can prescribe antibiotics to help reduce inflammation and germs on your skin if over-the-counter acne treatments are ineffective. In both topical and oral forms, antibiotics operate by lowering the population of Propionibacterium acnes on your skin, which can lessen outbreaks.
