natural products to fade spots/marks on face?

[curls2grow]

Has anyone had any luck using natural products (calendula cream, tea tree oil, etc.) to fade marks left by pimples or other marks on face?

I have used tea tree oil but I found that using a good facial moisturizer works well but I also use Neutrogena Multi-Vitamin Acne Treatment which is seem to remember says it reduces the signs of acne scarring.

Rosehip oil is said to be good for fading scars. It's quite a heavy, moisturising oil though, so I personally wouldn't try it on your face if you still have blemish prone skin. :flower:

Vitamin K cream worked really well for me.

My husbie told me about a guy that he works with told him- He( the guy) had a huge scar on his face from an accident. He would take vit E capsules- *the kind with the liquid E inside* and crack it open and spread the vit E all over the scar. He said he did that whenever he thought about it, and it took awhile, but the scar is almost gone.
My husband said he was surprised in hearing that the scar was there or how big it was because you can't see it anymore. :) :cool:

I use ScarGo (http://www.evitamins.com/product.asp?pid=2454), and it works amazingly well.

Coconut oil helps quite a bit, in my experience, and shea butter is great for fading those marks.
Both of them look a little shiny though, so I tend to use them only in the evening.

It's not natural, but Jan Marini Bioglycolic Bioclear Lotion has worked really well for me. It helps clear up or prevent acne as well as considerably fade marks left by acne (thanks to the azelaic acid).

My doctor even commented that my face cleared up after I used it only a couple of times.

There are a LOT of people praising this stuff. Check out makeupalley.com's review section, as well as skinstore.com. I got mine from skinstore - it's kind of expensive, but it's worth it since a little goes a long way, and if you sign up at skinstore, they often send coupons in emails for 10% off. Actually, I got a recent one for 15% off storewide - enter code DAD15 at checkout.

I also find that Aubrey Organics Amino Derm Gel helps clear up my acne. It contains sulfur, so you may want to stay away if you're allergic. I use it at night because it can leave a white film if I use too much, and because it stinks :parp: lol. I have the old formulation. When I run out, I'm going to try the newer one.
