The skin care industry spends millions of dollars every year promoting over-the-counter and prescription acne treatments, but can you really expect them to be equally effective for everyone? Is it realistic to hope to find a one-size-fits-all acne treatment from your local pharmacy?
It's a fact that every person's skin is as unique as their fingerprint (pun intended!) These differences are based upon a variety of factors such as age, sex, race, diet, genetics, nutrition, and general physical health. Therefore it should come as no surprise that what works well for William may be lacking for LaQuisha. Some will find creams and pads beneficial; others may not have any luck with them. Still others may break out due to an allergic reaction to a particular chemical used in the product.
For this reason, it may be beneficial to avoid the pharmacy altogether, and instead find an all-natural acne home treatment that works for you . Not only are these less expensive than the many treatments found in a pharmacy, but they also have very little chance of producing an adverse effect.
It is important to realize that acne isn't just a problem on the skin's surface. It goes much deeper than that. Therefore, an effective acne home treatment plan is one that fights the bacteria that causes blemishes both internally and externally.
Below are some effective acne home remedies that have been proven to work for many women and men alike. Experiment with the different methods until you find an acne home treatment regimen that is right for you.
* "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" when battling acne. Wash your face twice a day with a mild cleanser or soap and warm water. Reduce to once a day if dryness occurs.
* Keep your hands away from your face as much as possible. Even if your hands aren't visibly "dirty," they will still transmit dirt and bacteria to your face, which will plug the pores and cause pimples to occur.
* Can a new "do" can clear up your acne?...It may help, since oil from your hair can easily be transferred to the face, causing acne. Even pulling your hair back out of your face can make a big difference.
* Stay hydrated by drinking at least 8 (That's right...I said eight!) glasses of water each day. This will help remove the toxins from your body that could otherwise cause blemishes to form.
* Eat a balanced diet that includes lots of fresh vegetables and fruit. This will help detoxify your body and keep out the acne causing bacteria. Avoid foods that have been known to cause breakouts, such as fried foods and chocolate.
* Refrain from popping pimples. This can lead to the spreading of the bacteria to other areas of the face, and can result in scarring, which can be even more embarrassing than a splotchy red zit.
For many people, finding an acne home treatment is not just a healthy alternative to pharmaceutical acne products...it may actually be the ONLY OPTION available due to an intolerece to some chemicals like benzoyl peroxide.
Many other people have simply been using these over-the-counter medications for so long that they may have never even considered an acne home treatment...or else can't believe that they may be as effective as a something they can get from their pharmacist.
