Anti-acne cream |
| |
There
are many factors leading to acne. The hormonal changes,
stress, strain, alcohol consumption, smocking, above
all the pollution. Acne grows from the inside of your
skin, not as a result of fatty foods or dirt. Scrubbing
your skin will not reduce acne, so spare your skin the
rough scrubs.
There
are many medical solutions for acne. Treat acne with
benzyl peroxide, an antibacterial, combined with salicylic
acid (also known as beta hydroxy), an exfoliant. Benzoyl
peroxide comes in a soap or ointment, like Clearasilor
Stridex. Salicylic acid derives from aspirin and available
in a cream form. Neutrogena soap contains both salicylic
acid and a little benzoyl peroxide. These are for teenage
acne and they dry out the skin. If you’re not
a teenager, try Oil of Olay Age-Defying Lotion or Clinique
Turnaround Cream. Do not use antibiotics or tetracycline
with out doctor’s prescription.
Do not use fairness creams/ complex solutions to improve
your skin fairness. On the other hand, black skin is
more resistant to aging and to skin cancers, has faster
healing properties than fair skin, and tends to not
develop acne.
