Herbal Remedies for Acne: How Mother Nature Can Give You Clearer Skin

Acne is the most prevalent skin disorder in America today. Though it is most common in the teens and early twenties it sometimes affects menopausal women. What actually causes acne? There are three major types of this skin condition:

and whiteheads: These form on or just beneath the skin’s surface.

Pimples: These form above the surface of the skin.

All three of these forms of acne may be caused when a hair follicle becomes plugged with oil, dirt, make up
or dead skin cells. Acne also has a hormonal component which often means a diet containing a lot of oily or processed foods, or food containing refined sugar can exacerbate the condition.

If you’ve been struggling with acne for a while, or you’ve had a sudden outbreak, your greatest concern is probably how to get rid of it as quickly as possible and cover it in the meantime. If so, it’s time to consider your treatment options. A number of over-the-counter products are available. Complete acne treatment systems such as Proactiv contain a combination of natural extracts and synthetic active ingredients.
These include benzoyl peroxide to kill acne bacteria, salicylic acid to unblock pores, and sulfur for oiliness reduction.

A range of products have also been developed for quick results. If you want to see results within 48 hours, check out site and see how these products are rated.
