HEALING ACNE NATURALLY
Acne is undeniably one of the most common skin issues and maybe the hardest to treat. Some of the most prescribed treatments are Tretinoin, Differin, other Retinoids, Alpha-hyroxy Acids (AHA's), Beta-Hydroxy Acids (Salicylic Acid), Chemical Peels, Micro-dermabrasion, etc. What all of these treatments have in common is that they act as a band-aid, rather than treat the root cause. They all reduce acne by drying out the skin, which is a HUGE no no when it comes to age prevention. Dry skin leads to aged skin. These are also temporary remedies that, once stopped, the acne flare-up often makes a quick comeback.
The better way to treat acne is to get to the bottom of what caused it in the first place. This guide helps point you in the right direction, highlighting some common culprits that contribute to acne breakouts, which often come from diet and lifestyle. I have also included some foods, herbs and teas that have been shown to help you on your way to clearer skin.
I have seen time and again, when helping my clients on their skincare journeys, that at times, simple swaps and lifestyle changes can make a big difference in managing acne breakouts.
Here's to healthy & radiant skin!
Be well. Be safe. Be beautiful!
