While there are some factors that are out of your control primarily for teenagers concerning hormonal changes in their bodies which are one of the causes for acne development, there are other factors that you can control to prevent acne or reduce acne proliferation. There is no magical instant secret to prevent acne but rather a natural real secret which is found in just our lifestyle. Just how we live and eat can impact in the formation of acne without knowing. So if you change your lifestyle and improve it, you can prevent acne or simply reduce the effect.

Here are some 3 simple acne preventing tips.

(1) Stress

Stress has its role to play in the appearance of acne. When you’re under stress, your body produces more hormones than usual and as a result, more sebum. This sticky substance renders the skin oily and aids in the development of acne. While you can’t avoid stress completely, you can at least deal with it and try to destress yourself by means of relaxation, meditation, yoga, deep breathing, exercise, music, taichi, a warm bath etc… Don’t stress yourself too much as far as possible and even if you have, combat it by trying to relax your body every way you can. This will help in preventing or reducing acne.

(2) Exercise

Exercise is highly recommended just for the sake of staying healthy. But exercise does not only help in keeping fit but it can prevent acne as well. Regular exercises improve the blood flow to your skin and provides oxygen to your skin cells. Sweating is a good thing as your skin pores can be cleaned inside resulting in a healthier skin with less acne formation or acne disappearance. Like mentioned above, stress contributes to the over-production of hormones and exercise can rebalance them and as a result, acne is prevented or reduced.

As exercising improves fitness overall, the organs of your body will work much better and toxins will be released faster from your body along with the sweat. Toxins are among one of the culprits for acne outbreak and when you remain inactive physically, they can stay in your body. Also, drink lots of water when you exercise as the latter will remove the toxins from your body. Engage yourself in exercises like brisk walking, jogging, cycling and swimming.

(3) Diet

A poor diet is one of the major causes of acne. If you find yourself eating too many of the wrong types of foods, you might not be aware but there are great chances that these foods are contributing to your acne formation. Read my article specifically focused on diet and acne “Acne Diet – Acne Cure Diet Treatment”.

So now that you have these 3 simple acne preventing tips, pay proper attention to them and you can prevent or reduce your acne from now on. Good luck.

The temptation of popping pimples is high and sometimes you’re unable to resist it. But popping pimples has its side effects. Although the pimples have gone away, what usually remain is a small hole and blood might come out if it’s too ripe. Or it can just leave a hole which is ugly.

When you remove the germ along with blood, this can cause infection on your skin and might degenerate if you don’t get proper treatment. If you do get the necessary treatment, this can be healed with time and the hole will vanish.

If you didn’t squeeze the pimples and let them cure by themselves after following the proper acne therapy, this can work as well.

So the debate to whether you need to pop and remove pimples is still well opened. But for me, I think that squeezing and popping out the pimples is not a shortcut to get rid of them. When you intentionally open them, you will irritate your skin and delay the healing much more because you would have already created a small hole in your skin.

On the other hand, letting it cure by itself will be much faster. The pimples will pop out by themselves with time if proper treatment is given or they might also disappear and fade away. It’s important to point out that when you remove the pimples, it’s like you’re starting all over again but now, the difference is that you need to get the hole dry up and heal which can take some time. You’re starting all over again because if you haven’t squeezed the ripe pimples, maybe they would have healed in the next few days.

Nature in itself is healing and can purify our body and this is why natural acne skin care therapies are highly recommended. Among them, you have green tea, aloe vera, basil, turmeric which are acne healers. Also available are products which contain natural ingredients to cure acne.

Aloe vera for instance are sold as creams and are very refreshing for the skin and will lessen the acne inflammation. You also have green tea acne cream which is an ideal candidate for getting rid of acne because the green tea extract has amazing healing benefits. It can also refine the pores. By using natural acne products, you will nourish your skin and make it less proned for acne. Also, drinking green tea regularly has the potential to flush toxins from your body and reduce your acne as well.

One other alternative in using green tea is to boil green tea dried leaves which are usually of a brownish-black color. Then let the tea warm up a bit and take the tea to apply on your skin with a towel. Just tap on the affected areas for about 15 minutes everyday for at least 2 weeks. The longer the better. The temperature of the tea should preferably be between warm and hot.

So why not give natural acne skin care treatment a try? You have nothing to lose other than eliminating your acne. It’s recommended that you consult a dermatologist first and seek his or her advice before following an acne skin care therapy.
