Does rubbing cucumber and potatoes slices on your face help clear acne?



What are some ways to get rid of acne or prevent it from coming? I kno you have to drink water, excersies and eat healthy but what are some other ways?

  1. u could just use some acne cream??

  2. no not at all.

  3. hun..just try face cream

  4. a goof place to find the answer is google is the best

  5. no.. or no one would have acne lol
    my friends have proactive and it worked wonders for them
    after you exercise wash your face right away
    wash your face morning and night

  6. I like using 100% aloe vera (the kind you buy at a health food store and have to keep in the fridge, not the kind mixed with gel that you put on your sunburn). It’s very soothing and it restores the pH balance to your skin.

    The thing about cucumber is that it’s an anti-inflammatory. It can soothe your skin, but it doesn’t actually make the pimples go away.

  7. No, but it will make your zits taste better!

  8. i havent tried that… but just do what you said eat healthy!

    answer mine =]

  9. no, it does exfoliate ur skin.
    try buying some acne products.
    those will help a lot!

  10. Actually in Korea, they have a cucumber face massage. You take a fresh cucumber and cut them into thin slices. You cover your face with them and it helps with acme. I find it that I feel better afterwards a cucumber face massage. Makes me feel better anyhow.

  11. it does good to your facial skin but I don’t think is going to clear acne.

  12. I’ve never heard of the potato skins but i have heard that the cucumber only relieves the stress around your eyes….besides water, exercising and eating right you should also wash your face in the morning and at night…that helps a lot!! hope this helps

  13. Absolutely not. The potatoe will clog your pours with starch, and the cucumber is not going to do anything for you.

    The best way to prevent acne is to keep your skin healthy. Morning and Evening washing with mild soap and a good exfoliant before bed is a wonderful way… also be sure to use a great moisturizer before bed and under your make up.

    this will keep the pours from getting clogged, will keep a healthy moisture balance, and will also help the make up stay put longer!

    Good luck to yoU!

  14. i heard layin them on your skin helps but not rubbibng them on your face that wont help at all!!but just try facial cream!!

  15. dont touch your face, wipe makeup off as soon as you dont need it, buy a non-oil mositurizer b/c lack of moisture can cause your skin to overproduce oil to compensate and this clogs pores leading to more zits. Wash your face every morning and night and then moisturize right away. Try to keep bangs and hair non-oily b/c it gets on face and causes too much oil. Also, try not to let your chin or cheeks touch the phone too much cuz that can cause zits. Find an exfoliating face wash as well (usually has microbeads or something like that in it read the packaging)… Good luck! Oh yeah and apply toothpaste on a zit but make sure you dont let it go for more than 15 min. or then youll make it worse. Rinse it off before 15 min. and it should be dryer and go away faster

  16. nope! it don’t do nothing.

  17. Try washing your face with neutrogena acne cleansing cloths, iv’e been using tose for three days and all my acme is gone! Also dont put to lotion on your face unless it’s unoiled and made for faces! Oh drink water, excersice, and eat healthy!

  18. none
    wash your face
    use acne meds

  19. wash your face with neutrogena
    blackhead elliminating daily scrub pimples go away fast
    or use the stress control one
