Étiquette : acne-prone skin

Acne-prone skin is a frustrating and overwhelming problem to deal with. Having it can cause low self-esteem and even depression. The causes of acne-prone skin vary, but some common factors include age, hormones, bacteria, and genes.

Managing acne-prone skin

Managing it can be challenging, especially when there are disadvantages or side effects involved. Some medications for acne can cause skin dryness, irritation, and even more breakouts. But there are still ways to manage acne-prone skin effectively.

One way to manage this skin condition is to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. A 2022 study by Meixiong et al. shows that high glycemic index, carbohydrate intake, and increased glycemic load can cause acne. Drinking plenty of water and getting enough sleep are important as they affect skin hydration and hormonal changes, respectively.

It is also important to not touch the face because it may cause bacterial transfer from the hand to the face and make acne worse. Keeping the skin clean is also essential, but avoid using facial scrubs and exfoliants as they can cause more damage.

Another way to manage acne-prone skin is by using natural products with essential oils. Essential oils have been used for centuries for their healing properties, and many of them have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce acne. Essential oils like tea tree oil, lavender oil, and cinnamon oil have activities that aid in combatting acne (Nurzyńska-Wierdak et al., 2022).

Diluting essential oils with carrier oils before applying them is important. But you don’t have to do that if you have CANhaveTODAY’s all-natural vegan products for skin care. Waters Mist, Soothing Juggernaut, Healing Legends, and Sparkling Rain all contain essential oils that are proven to help acne-prone skin!
