Reducing Acne Naturally
Many of us have lived through it as teenagers and young adults...ACNE...the dreaded red pimples that always seem to multiply at the absolute worst times!
Before you run out and spend alot of money on over-the-counter and prescription drugs, let's take a look at some natural methods of reducing acne...
Here are some tips:
* Reduce your stress level.
Stress can cause acne. By reducing your stress levels, you can reduce your chances of acne outbreaks. Try doing yoga or any other relaxing techniques. It may not be an acne cure, but reducing stress will improve your general health.
* Don't wash your face too much.
Some people think that washing your face often will reduce the risk of getting acne. This is not the case. Washing your face too much can actually dry out your skin, leading to acne. When you do wash your face use only oil-free products.
* Be wary of cosmetics and hair products.
Clogged pores are a cause of acne. Some people who use cosmetics to cover acne can actually be making it worse. If you do use cosmetics, then you should only use cosmetics that don't clog the pores (noncomdomedogenic products).
* Be careful of what medications you are taking.
Some medications, like types of steroids, can cause acne. Consult your doctor about any medications you are taking.
* Wear loose clothing.
Many types of acne are caused by sweat, especially body and back acne. Tight clothes keep the sweat in contact with the skin, thus causing acne.
