Acne Prevention Tips and Home Remedies
Any skin disorder that is very apparent can prove extremely
embarrassing and a trying experience for the sufferer. Everyone
who is prone to develop acne would love to know a dozen
effective ways to prevent it in the first place. Who wouldn't
want to save face and another month or longer worth of painful
self-consciousness? I have listed a number of practical ways to
prevent another acne breakout from embarrassing you, and if
despite your honest efforts acne still rears its ugly head, I
also suggested a few effective steps for treating acne,
naturally.
Acne Prevention Tips
Use a honey mask on a weekly basis. Honey is considered as a
disinfectant and a great way for healing pimples. It can also
kill bacteria found in your skin. Cut your hair short if it's
long. Hair has oil. When you are moving, dust particles often
culminate in your hair, and as your hair touches your face,
neck, or forehead, it can provoke acne or worsen an affected
area.
Take a powerful multi-vitamin twice every day; the biggest
organ--your skin--requires proper nutrients to stay healthy.
Take vitamin A daily. It both protects your skin and prevents
acne. Plus, vitamin A reduces sebum production.
Avoid over washing and rubbing or scrubbing your skin
excessively. Acne is not caused by not washing or by having
dirty skin.
Some people, especially students, have claimed that their acne
grows worse when experiencing stressful situations. Advise: if
it's in your power, cut down on stress.
Drink 8 glasses of water everyday. Water helps to clean and
hydrate the skin.
Avoid alcohol-based creams and lotions.
Either change or wash your pillowcase everyday.
Eat food rich in zinc. A deficiency in zinc may cause acne
breakouts.
Add a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables to your daily diet.
When you are undergoing much stress, breathe deeply. It has been
discovered that there exists a direct connection between acne
and stress.
Exercise regularly, for it helps your blood to circulate and to
remove toxins.
Eat a well-balanced diet to reduce the reoccurrence of acne.
Choose your cosmetics very carefully. Sometimes what you wear to
disguise acne can actually turn out to be the root cause of a
skin disorder.
