  Tips to Achieve Self-Empowerment If you’re striving to attain personal empowerment, focus on your drive, identify what you can control, and keep an objective, goal-oriented mindset. The following seven tips can help you achieve self-empowerment. Work to Have A Positive Attitude People who believe they control their own destiny — rather than giving in to external concepts such as fate, luck, or circumstance — are more likely to take charge of their future. Cultivate a positive attitude and outlook by evaluating your strengths and weaknesses, pursuing your passions, and trusting in your ability. Set attainable Goals Measurable, achievable goals are an important component of self-empowerment, and understanding how to set them can help you feel good about your achievements.

1. Baking Soda One of the best home remedies for acne is baking soda. There are several reasons for this. First, it balances the pH level of the skin, which can help to reduce oil levels. Second, it acts as an exfoliator for your skin, removing dirt, makeup, and dead skin cells. You can use baking soda to wash your entire face to prevent acne, and you can also use it to spot-treat problem areas. To use as a cleaner, mix equal parts baking soda and water and gently scrub your entire face. To use it as a spot treatment, add a few drops of lemon juice to baking soda and apply a thin layer to the affected area for 5 to 10 minutes.                2. Toothpaste Mint has many healing properties when it comes to acne, so it's no surprise that toothpaste is a popular home remedy to treat unsightly pimples.

  GO EASY ON CLEANING Wash your face at least once daily.  If you find your skin dry and tight after washing  don't wash multiple times a day. TRY A THICKER MOISTURIZER If that doesn't help also try changing your serums to cream versions.  You may also want to keep something like vaseline or Aquaphor to use throughout the day. USE SUNSCREEN DAILY This should be part of your daily routine.  I have a moisturizing sunscreen that I use daily.
