Get Rid of Acne and Get Beautiful Skin!

Beautiful face of young adult woman with clean fresh skinNo matter how old you are, you are always susceptible to getting acne. Caused by a buildup of bacteria-laden oil (sebum) and dead skin cells in your pores, acne can wreak havoc on your physical appearance, as well as your confidence. In the past, keeping skin free of dirt and sweat was only thought to be done with special scrubs and washes. However, various studies have found other ways to effectively fight against the development of acne.

Besides washing your face at least twice a day, below are a few helpful tips to effectively prevent acne and get the beautiful skin you deserve.

Get Your Vitamins

Just like your heart or lungs, your skin is an organ (the largest in the body). When it doesn’t receive the proper nutrients, there’s is an increased possibility that it will respond by overproducing sebum and clogging pores.

Mask it

Applying a homemade facial mask made of honey and cinnamon may seem like a waste of time, but it is more helpful than you think. Honey is a natural antibiotic that kills bacteria and cinnamon contains antimicrobial properties that slow the production of bacteria. All you need is two tablespoons of honey and a teaspoon of cinnamon and…Voliá!

Change Your Pillowcase

When you sleep, dirt and oil rub off onto your pillowcase, becoming a hotbed of bacteria of the coming days. Changing your pillowcase on a weekly basis can noticeably help prevent breakouts.

Check Your Laundry Detergent

Many laundry soaps contain chemicals and fragrances that are harsh on the skin and can irritate your pores. If you’ve been sporadically experiencing acne recently, then try using a detergent that is color- and fragrance-free.

Go Easy on the Makeup

If you’re one of those women who tend to cake on their makeup, perhaps this is the root of your acne. As an added problem, applying makeup means touching your face, which can promote bacterial growth. To help reduce your risk for acne, wear less makeup and wash your makeup brushes at least once a week.
