Many people experience acne not
only as youths, or during puberty, but well into their adult
years. Often, many individuals, especially women, don’t
experience acne breakouts, pimples, or hormonal blemishes into
their 20s and 30s. Plagued by recently developed acne, many people
simply don’t know where to turn. What has caused their acne
to develop? Only one reason---your body’s production of
sebum has begun to change and this can occur at any point in
life—not just during adolescence. But, don’t be dismayed,
there is hope for you spur of acne, pimples, breakouts, and blemishes.
Even if you are experiencing larger pores, whiteheads, papules,
or blackheads, you can control your acne by doing natural things
to regulate your body’s sebum (oil) production. If you do
not regulate your body’s sebum (oil) production internally;
unfortunately, your white blood cells will respond to the sebum
by trying to release it from your body; unfortunately, your pores
will be the dumping system of choice. As a result, you will have
acne. Here are a few tips to help you regulate your sebum production: |

1) Flush your system on a weekly
basis. I know we all hate to discuss things such as this, but
do you remember your mom and grandparents always bugging you
to keep your system clean? I do. Well, those same people had
some good points because they had a lot less acne and pimples
than we do. How can you flush? Drink pineapple and prune juice.
Yes, prune juice is disgusting, but it will alleviate excess
sebum, toxins, and waste from your body that may trigger acne
breakouts. Beat the sebum and toxins from getting to your pores.
You can purchase prune juice or pineapple juice at your local
grocer. WalMart actually makes a prune juice that contains no
preservatives, which is a shocking plus, considering it is WalMart.
2) Use All-Natural Skin Care
Products. Many people are unaware that they have allergic reactions
to their personal care products due to the chemicals in them.
Parabens, often used preservatives in skin and hair care products,
are known cancer-causing agents. The Cosmetic and Toiletry Association
identified sulfates and glycols as skin irritants and DEA has
been found to cause cancer, nausea, vomiting, skin irritation,
and a host of other problems. While you will have to cleanse
your skin to get rid of your acne, you don’t have to place
more chemicals on it that will aggravate your acne and blemishes
or rip your outer layer of skin. A recent study conducted by
a beauty magazine, ranked Beauty 4 Ashes ® Naturally Clear
Acne System and Aubrey Organics ® (www.aubreyorganics.com)
as two natural skin care choices that can help acne. Beauty 4
Ashes ® Naturally Clear System actually ranked very high,
(4.5 out of 5 stars) cited for its ability to lighten acne scars
and reduce pimple and pore size quickly. The Beauty 4 Ashes ®
Naturally Clear System (wwwdiscoverb4acom) contains citrus fruits,
essential fatty acids, sebum controlling essential oils, natural
astringents, green tea, aloe vera, and many other ingredients
that have been clinically proven to reduce acne. Because of its
ability to control sebum production it was noted as a top choice
between natural and synthetic acne products for adult and teen
acne.
3) Take Your Vitamins. Vitamin
C, B Vitamins, and Essential Fatty Acids have been proven to
have a beneficial effect on creating, clear, healthy, balanced
skin. Vitamin C has also been shown to lighten acne scars and
fight infections, while Essential Fatty Acids have been shown
to detox the body and cleanse the system. Take Vitamin C and
Essential Fatty Acids on a daily basis. Natrol ® makes a
great Vitamin C tablet and surprisingly, Dr. Atkins makes a great
Essential Fatty Acids pill. You can both online at wwwdrugstorecom
or you can check your local CVS pharmacy.
4) Drink water sweetened with
lemon juice, Splenda ®, and apple cider vinegar. Yes, I know
this sounds awful, but both lemon juice and apple cider vinegar
are known to balance the skin’s PH and detoxify your system.
Add as much Splenda® as necessary to make this tolerable.
All you need is ½ teaspoon of both in 1 cup of water 1-2
times a day for this to be effective. Your acne and acne scars
will improve. Your skin will also become clearer, more even toned,
and firmer overall. It is just the price you pay for naturally
fighting blemishes and pimples without harming your skin with
the additional chemicals and acids in traditional acne medications,
such as Proactiv, Retin-A, and Accutane (but, don’t be mistaken,
these will work for some individuals).
