Plagued by Spots and Pimples? Help is at Hand with Some Useful Acne Infographics ...

And reading further... Baking soda should NEVER come into contact with your skin. It causes micro tears that will cause much worse acne and other skin conditions in the long run. Honey should only be used if pure organic manuka honey, and even then should be spot tested and used sparingly as people can have huge reactions even if not allergic to honey or pollen. Toothpaste should NEVER go on your face. There's a reason that it's not advertised as a skin cream. All it does is dry the skin out, cause micro tears, and hurt the pH of your skin.

I love how you added celebrities into this cause it shows that no one is perfect

This will help me a lot,

I hate acne with a passion and it is the struggle of my life. I most definitely am going to try to visit a dermatologist ASAP!

Isabella, the bar of dial soap is really good for back acne. It is antibacterial so it's drying. I wouldn't use it anywhere else but the back tho.

Thank you such great info here, no just for getting rid of acne but maintaining clearer skin and good skin care. I think that acne reflects your health from the inside out. I only kept my acne under control by seeing a dermatologist and changing my eating habit. There's no cure I still breakout but it's more under control. And I agree that the worst thing to do is wait it out- don't! I also find over the counter products a waste of money they don't work as effectively

I've just started using Tea Tree Oil and a lil goes a long way since you need to dilute it with a carrier oil or water. It really does clear up your face and tone it. You can put it in your shampoo ( 10 drops in 8oz of shampoo) and it helps regenerate new hair growth from hair loss for over processing. Also I do tea tree oil and extra virgin olive oil hair mask. Tea Tree Oil is really good. I recommend googling it for it's many uses.

Thanks

What's the best foundation? That has really good coverage. I live in Perth wa x

If you have enough acne that you are reading these types of articles, please go see a dermatologist and create a skin regime that works well on your skin type. Please do not try any DIY or anything that claims that chemicals are bad. Chemicals are natural too.
