Getting Rid Of Acne And Other Problems With Your Skin

Most people would agree that dealing with acne is a pain

. Most of us find acne embarrassing. Dealing with breakouts is something that most of us hope that we will grow out of in time. Unfortunately, not practicing proper skin care means that your teenage acne will never fully go away. You might not want to believe this but there are plenty of adults who still have the same acne problems they had as young teenagers. Here is what you can do to keep your pores clean (and keep acne away). You can learn a lot about fighting acne by reading this article.

Finding the right cleanser is your first line of defense against acne. Obviously you want to stay away from a product with an oil base but other criteria are important as well when you are choosing your cleanser. You should also look at the salicylic acid. This is one of the most important ingredients in harsher cleansers that are meant for people whose breakouts are prolonged and severe. If your breakouts are not that bad, your cleanser only needs salicylic acid to do some basic cleaning. As you age your skin will get thinner and more sensitive so you might eventually need to use salicylic acid only for the occasional spot treatment. Seek the help of a dermatologist. Some people simply have acne that cannot be cured with over the counter treatments. If you have tried everything that you can think of and nothing is working and you are still suffering from painful and extensive acne, it might be time to enlist the help of a doctor. A dermatologist will be able to give you prescription strength acne fighting products. Your doctor or dermatologist might figure out that your acne is a medical condition and not simply a case of clogged pores. Acne is not always caused by clogged pores--sometimes breakouts are the result of your genes or other health problems you might be facing. Your dermatologist or physician will know how best to fight your acne and breakouts if they are being caused by something besides dirt and bacteria in your pores.

Natural acne remedies are another option if you suffer from breakouts. Have you ever tried using toothpaste on a zit before? Squeeze some toothpaste onto a pimple or zit after it has formed and leave it on overnight. When you wake up, you will see that the pimple or zit has gotten a lot smaller (do not try this if you have pets who roam free at night because tasting the toothpaste could make them very sick). You might also try using egg whites in your facial cleanser and as a zit reducer. Either make a face mask from the egg whites and leave it on over night or dab some egg white onto a pimple with a q-tip.

There are lots of ways to keep your skin clean and free of oil and acne. Some people are able to fight acne simply by washing their face twice a day. Others will have to use more muscle against their acne. You might decide that your best defense against acne is a natural lifestyle and a regular exercise routine. It might take some time for you to figure out the method that works best for you. The idea behind acne fighting is to try each acne fighting method for a while before moving on.

Don't give up too quickly--many acne fighters take a while to start working properly so give each method a few weeks to do its job before deciding that it doesn't work.
