Here are some unusual skincare hacks you probably haven't thought of that quite possibly may be the answer you've been searching for.

1) Aspirin and honey

Together, they can reduce the effects of acne and help remove the redness that comes from skin irritation.

  • Clean your skin with toner to open your pores.

  • In a separate bowl, crush a single aspirin and then add a small amount of toner

  • Apply the paste directly to the acne and let it sit for five minutes.

  • Wash off then apply a small dab of honey to the blemishes.

  • Wash off after 10 minutes

2) Toothpaste

White toothpaste can reduce acne, remove bug bites, and eliminate the effects of rashes.

  • Apply white toothpaste to bug bites or acne

  • Allow it to dry and then go to sleep

  • In the morning, wash off

3) Lemon and sugar

Lemons are excellent for removing dirt and bacteria while sugar acts as an exfoliant and opens up pores.

  • Cut a lemon in half, sprinkle sugar on one of the exposed halves

  • Apply to your face each night to remove dead skin

4) Sea salt

Sea salt is a natural antiseptic!

  • Add one tablespoon of sea salt to a 16-ounce spray bottle of warm water

  • Spray onto a small applicator like a washcloth
