Some acne sufferers certainly report an improvement, but the experts are still sceptical. However, what harm can it do to try out this home remedy? Cheaper and probably healthier for your skin than all those chemicals in pharmaceutical preparations!

Paula Begoun recommends buying the plain Milk of Magnesia (not the mint flavor). Apply a thin layer to your skin and allow to dry. Then rinse off. Apparently this mask zaps the oil in your skin but doesn't dry the skin out!
