Blemishes refer to the discolored patches on your skin left behind by skin disorders such as pimples, acne, pigmentation or due to skin pores clogged by excess oil secretion. Blemishes, pimples and acne are some of the skin problems which keep on affecting your skin and are hard to keep at bay. If you are suffering from the distressing problem of blemishes and wondering whether it is possible for you to get rid of them, then the good news is that it is not absolutely impossible. But in order to do so, you have to persistently work hard on your skin care regime.

Following are some interesting ways to eliminate those blemishes forever.

1. Skin exfoliation - Skin exfoliation is a very effective process for getting rid of blemishes permanently. Exfoliation helps to shed the upper layer of your skin or rather the affected layer of your skin. But after exfoliation, a strict skin care routine must be followed every day which should combine cleaning and moisturizing, so that the pimples and acne do not get a chance of popping out again.

2. Avoid overexposure to sun - Too much exposure to sun can worsen your blemishes and make them darker in color. It can also create difficulties to get rid of them. Sun exposure may lead to the break out of more pimples and acne, which in turn, will leave behind more marks on your skin.

3. Cut down on sugar - Research shows that consuming excessive sugar can trigger the break out of acne on your skin. Therefore, cutting down on your sugar intake will prevent further acne breakouts, which, in turn, will help you to get rid of your blemishes.

4. Apply lemon juice - Apply curd with few drops of lemon juice in case of oily skin. In case of dry skin, apply only curd on your face once a week for 20mins.

5. Avoid oily and fried foods - Excluding oily and fried foods from your diet can help reduce the excess oil secretion by the skin pores and also prevent clogging of the pores.
