Kombucha for Acne and Skin Impurities
Being stuck at home for more than a month with only Supermarkets and Fastfood at my disposal, it has been impossible for me to get access to my trusted skincare product. Because of stress, poor diet (guilty), and hormones, I soon found myself with zits. I don't really mind, it's not a big deal. Let them come and I'd pop and pick on them. Easy.
Until one customer of ours asked if we could send him plain kombucha as it's the main ingredient for his skincare product. That gave me an idea to try and use it for my face. I've got nothing to lose- everyone's indoors anyway.
It's pretty easy, there's no need to use ingredients that we can't even pronounce properly. All you gotta do is get a cotton ball, wet it with plain kombucha (for this, I use Happy Brew Green Goddess Kombucha) and use it to clean your face. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, rinse off, and voila! You may feel a little stinging sensation especially if you have broken skin, but it's safe. It's basically like using products with apple cider vinegar sans the strong sour odor with all the healthy probiotics!
The huge pimple on my face dried up after one use and I noticed my skin is less oily. Overall, I think it's a great discovery!
