The subject of acne diets might not be strange to you, as it concerns what you eat and how that manifest on your skin.

Some few winters ago I was in a doctor's office with my wife, who was there for a back ache assessment. During that period I had chapped lips, and had requested if the doctor had some lip balm.

Taking one quick look at me, the doctor informed me that my diet has to do with the present condition of my lips. And she explained that taking proper nutritious diets and fluids would prevent chapped lips. This surprised me, but I gave it a shot.

I have stopped using lip balms and my chapped lips are gone. The doctor's method though sounds bizarre, but it surely worked. And if can work on the lips, it means it can also be applied to the skin.

One fact most people don't know is that some substance the food we eat are excretes back through the skin pores, and this should make us realize that acne diets is crucial for some persons, and that foods such as snacks, that contains high fat and grease are the precursors of acne breakouts.

Best Advice For Keeping Acne under Control By Tara Webster, Beauty Consultant

We all at one point or another have struggled with acne. I for one never had a problem until I had my first child. Go figure. Hormones can trigger an imbalance that will cause women to have outbreaks from the ages of 25 -35 or even older. This is not the case for most, but relatively speaking, teens and adults, women and men have bouts with acne breakouts sooner or later.

We all know the basics, but do we really take care of our skin? There are many things that trigger breakouts, and when we do have them we run to the drug store and spend precious dollars on anything that will get this thing off my face right now. I know - been there - done that. In any case, I have a few suggestions, some old and some new that could help you, most of which have been tried by yours truly.

Back to the basics

Wash your face please. Don't get lazy. You have to wash your face morning and night, whether you are male or female. You can skip all the expensive beauty regimens. Go for the antibacterial facial cleansers. Heck, you can even use antibacterial hand soap, unless you have very sensitive skin. I don't remember who told me to do this but I use antibacterial gel directly on the pimple. Well...you got a better solution? Breakouts, in most cases are caused by bacteria. For me, this helped alleviate the problem within days. You will need to use an oil free moisturizer afterwards to keep your skin becoming dry. For small breakouts, just about any product that contains benzyl peroxide or sacilic acid can dry out the pimple in just a few days.

Whiteheads are the worst. They are very painful and if you try to squeeze them you have a higher risk of infection and scarring. Who wants to look in the mirror every day and see a scar that reminds you of the little temporary zit that left a permanent mark on your face? There is a very inexpensive way to combat this, but you have to be patient. It ain't goin nowhere fast. After you wash your face, use hot water (as hot as you can stand without burning your skin) and a washcloth to make a compress. Hold the compress to the affected area for at least 20-30 seconds. Do this a few times and it will open the pores and loosen the dirt and oil.

I don't know about you, but blackheads just get on my nerves. Not only when I have them, but when I look at someone else who has them. Basically, scrub your face daily. Come on, it's not that hard. I wouldn't even consider this to be acne, it would be under the category of laziness. This can also be treated the same way as above, by using a compress. After applying the compress you can try to extract the oil plug by gently squeezing, but not too hard, because that would cause a scar.

Those who have chronic acne, mostly teens, know that these methods work only in conjunction with regular visits to a dermatologist and prescription medications. There are still those who have done this and still fail to find a solution. Although there are a lot of products out there that do claim to treat chronic acne, you should investigate these products and seek out testimonials from others who have used them and have had success.
