Cures for Dry Skin Acne 

Dry skin that is prone to developing acne is not a rare phenomenon qt all. In fact, it is actually almost as common as oily skin developing acne. Acne is usually an age related problem, which typically springs up during adolescence. In some cases, it lasts well beyond this stage and into later age as well. When this happens, it is most likely to be a case of other related reasons such as bad eating habits that lead to constipation and indigestion. You must check your eating habits to see whether you are eating too much of junk food and not enough fresh food, as this could be a major cause of developing acne, irrespective of the type of skin you have.

You should take simple measures such as applying a mild grease free moisturizer to your skin before bedtime, as opposed to using one that is heavy and creamy. This will work towards keeping your skin healthy and balanced. You should also use a mild astringent to cleanse your skin at least thrice a day, and this will not allow fresh eruptions. You can also use a camphor lotion to cleanse. Make it yourself by crushing a few pieces of camphor and steeping them in distilled water for a couple of days. This will work very effectively. You should make it a point to apply a face pack once a week to hydrate and keep your skin healthy. Crush equal quantities of papaya and tomato and apply this for best results.
