acne treatments

We all suffer from acne, which is a constant battle to our skin. I have been suffering from acne on my face and back since my teenage years and the truth is, there’s no cure to get rid of acne completely. There are days when my skin is healthy and blemish free and then there are other days when I have pimples all over my face. We all get those days; however, there are several people who suffer with acne everyday. Acne is caused by several factors such as stress, puberty, hormonal imbalance, over production of sebum by sebaceous glands, clogged hair follicle, and etc. The only way to treat acne is to control it. I am going to share with you some products that I have used in the past and still using, also some products that has gotten great reviews.

Philosophy Acne Kit ($47)

I have oily skin so this product brings beauty and health back to my skin. It’s benzoyl peroxide free, it suppresses oil production, it exfoliates, and keeps your skin glowing. It comes with a face wash for oily skin, a blemish serum for acne, hydrogen peroxide cream that helps sanitize the skin from bacteria, and a protection cream. It’s a great product, one I would definitely recommend.

Zeno ($185)

I just started using this a month ago, and this is amazing. It really does get rid of your pimples overnight. It’s a medical device that’s been cleared by the FDA that applies controlled heat to the pimple through a metal pad. It treats mild to moderate acne. If you feel that a pimple is forming and is coming to surface, just put this device directly onto your pimple and it will go away within 24 hours. It is costly, but if I had a device that can remove a pimple in less than 24 hours, I would definitely buy it.

Proactiv

Everyone has heard of Proactiv even celebrities. It’s a popular product because it does work and it is the #1 Acne Selling Treatment. I’ve used this product in the past when my acne was extremely bad and it did help to clear up my skin. I really like the defining clay mask which I still use on my face. It’s an inexpensive product, easy to use, and has promising results. It’s even great to use on other parts on the body besides the face.

So if you want beauty and health back into your skin, the only way to treat acne is by controlling it.
