8. Use tea tree oil
Tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic and an effective antifungal agent. It is able to kill the bacteria that is causing your acne and is considered an effective solution in treating acne naturally.
9. Get plenty of rest
During the holidays, or before any special occasion, things can be more hectic than usual. Running yourself ragged will not help skin that is already inflamed. Make sure you get plenty of rest so you feel better and give your skin a chance to refresh itself.
10. Have controlled splurges
Even if you eat properly 90% of the time, there are going to be times when you are going to fall off the wagon. Plan it in advance so you don’t worry about it causing more anxiety which is going to show up on your face. It’s not the end of the world – when you plan it in advance, just enjoy it and get back on your plan the next day.

Additional tips
- Make sure you keep your hands clean at all times. Carry hand sanitizer with you just in case you don’t have access to a sink when you need one.
- Keep your hands away from your face (even if your hands are clean!).
- Wash your pillowcase every day so you don’t keep exposing your skin to your previous breakouts.
- If you just have a single pimple that is ruining your day, dab a little bit of toothpaste on it at night and it should be gone by the morning.
- Another option that can dry up a single blemish is to apply some lemon juice directly to the acne. The vitamin C will work wonders on it in a natural way.
