Tips
for Preventing Acne at Any Age
 (ARA)
From sweet 16 to fabulous 40 and beyond, acne is a condition
that affects almost everyone at some time in their lives.
According to the National Institutes of Health, nearly
85 percent of adolescents and young adults between the
ages of 12 and 24 develop the condition, and some people
continue to be affected into their forties and fifties.
"It's
important to remember that acne has both internal and
external causes," says Amy Baker, founder of Nature's
Cure, an innovative health and beauty products company.
"However, there are some basic precautions you can
take to help prevent breakouts."
Here
are some tips from Baker for people of any age who want
to keep their skin clear:
-
Don't pick, pop or squeeze, or otherwise mess with your
skin. Squeezing blemishes or whiteheads can lead to
infection or scarring. It almost always makes the acne
you have worse.
-
Wash your pillowcase often and always use clean face
towels. Dirty towels and pillowcases can harbor bacteria
and germs that can make acne worse.
-
Be sure to pull your hair away from your skin when you
sleep.
-
Try to shower as soon as possible after your workout
since sweat combined with skin oils can trap dirt and
bacteria in your pores.
-
Don't go to bed with makeup on. It can clog your pores
and lead to breakouts.
-
Make sure to clean cosmetic brushes regularly in soapy
water and throw out old, contaminated makeup.
-
Use topical treatments, such as Nature's Cure Vanishing
Cream, anywhere that you tend to get breakouts -- don't
just spot-treat existing pimples. The pore-clogging
process happens two to three weeks before any blemish
becomes visible on the skin.
For
a more complete treatment option, there is an innovative
over-the-counter remedy called Nature's Cure. "Because
acne is caused by a combination of factors, including
internal triggers that can cause imbalances inside the
body, and an overproduction of oil and trapped bacteria
on the outside, the most effective way to treat it is
by addressing both areas," explains Baker. "The
treatment includes all natural tablets to rebalance the
body, and a cream that works to clear up existing pimples
at the same time," she adds.
-
Exercising regularly can help reduce stress and it increases
blood circulation and oxygen penetration to the skin,
which may help to prevent acne.
-
Drink at least 64 ounces of water a day to help "detoxify"
the body from the inside out.
By
taking these simple precautions, most people can reduce
the occurrence of acne. There are also a variety of products
available to help in healing or preventing breakouts.
However, consumers should be careful about what they choose
to use.
"Most
acne prevention products either don't work very well or
have a litany of side effects," says Baker. "Unlike
other options, Nature's Cure is a homeopathic treatment
that is made from minerals, herbs and other natural extracts
that activate the body's natural defenses. Because these
ingredients are in minute concentrations, they trigger
the body to heal itself without side effects." The
formula is available in a male and female version. "Male
and female bodies and hormonal compositions are different,
and you have to address those differences when you are
treating acne," says Baker.
Nature's
Cure also offers a two-part body acne treatment that includes
tablets and a medicated body spray that can be sprayed
from any angle to treat hard-to-reach places like the
back and neck.
