From Angela Palmer, your Guide to Acne

Seems like everyone has their own "sure fire" remedy to heal pimples -- and they aren't shy about sharing it with us.  I know I've gotten my share of weird home remedy suggestions.  Some of them I'm tempted to try; others not so much.

So, this week's newsletter is a round-up of some of the best, worst, and most outlandish acne home remedies.  Hope you like them!

Acne bugs me... but the dark spots that are left after a pimple heals bothers me way more.  I hate that those spots take forever to fade, and leave my skin looking blotchy. 

If those dark blotches are a bother to you, too, then this week's newsletter is just for you!  Read on for tips on how to get rid of them.

Until next week!
