Acne is a common skin problem. People try several remedies both home made and those available widely on the market for eliminating this problem. The sad part is that there are several misconception associated with this disease. If you want to understand acne better, you need to sort it out through fact and fiction. Here are some common acne myths and the parts related to it.
Myth 1: Acne results due to irregular cleansing of skin.
The Golden Yellow Powder
This exotic yellow root spice is a member of the ginger family. It is used in Indian cooking since time immemorial. Turmeric is said to have anti-inflammatory properties and is also an excellent antiseptic. It is also great for the skin. My mother who lived to the ripe old age of 86 years regularly used turmeric powder in her cooking and applied a little amount to her face and neck as a daily regime. She had spotless smooth skin even in her old age. I strongly believe in home cures for skin ailments such as acne or pimples. So before you invest in expensive creams, just take a look around your kitchen . A small amount applied regularly on a boil or pimple clears up the skin very effectively. Take equal proportions of turmeric and sandalwood powder and mix with a little water to form a paste. Apply this paste every night after cleansing the area. You pimple is sure to dry out without leaving a scar.
It is a special day. No matter what “special” day it is, you can always count on that one thing to always be right there with you. I didn’t say it was a good thing! No, it is the unwanted and hated pimple! Why does it seem that those pimples only pop up on those special days that you want to look especially nice? You know, you always break out on picture day, or the day of your interview for a great job, or prom night, or your wedding day! Whatever the occasion, you can be sure it is going to happen! At least, that is how it seems!
It is the curse of teenagers around the world, but acne is caused by a combination of factors that aren’t related to age and can strike in your thirties as well as your teens.
In fact acne is the most common skin disease and more than 85% of people between the ages of 12 and 24 suffer from some form of acne.
So what causes this condition if it is not just hormonal? Well contrary to popular belief acne is not caused by not getting washed properly or eating greasy food. In fact acne is caused by the clogging of the pores, which in turn prevents sebum ,which is a characteristic oil, reaching the skins surface thus creating acne.
Acne breakouts are very hard to cope with. Whether acne pimples evolve in your early years or you get cysts as an adult, not one single individual on the planet is pleased when they wake up and see acne has appeared. Are you sick and tired of using on your skin with lotions, or over the counter products, or remedies and still having acne? Are you way past the normal age of acne breakouts and still affected by big, red acne cysts? Have you looked for an acne skin care product with no success?
