Tips on acne control

Fruits & vegetables
Make sure you have plenty of fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. A healthy diet should contain fruits and vegetables. Adequate vitamin C and fiber in our body helps to facilitate acne control.

Multi vitamins
Take multi vitamins that contains zinc supplement. Zinc contributes to making skin stronger and more acne resistant.

Alcohol free cleaners
Use facial cleaners that are free from alcohol. Alcohol tends to make the skin more dry unnecessary.

Natural makeup
Avoid heavy make up and if necessary do away with makeup ingredients that are not natural. Most make up contains toxins and chemical petroleum based ingredients that cause skin to dry. Try to use all natural makeup instead, it might be more expensive but hey, it is your skin health that you are concern with isn’t it?

Drink water
Drink plenty of water, I am not saying you should drink eight glass of water daily, but drink enough to ensure you don’t thirst and as a general rule of thumb, drink enough to ensure that your urine is colorless like water.

Clean pillow
You spend a huge portion of your time sleeping with your face lying on the pillow. Make sure the pillow is clean to prevent face contact with dirty materials.

Don't wait
Don’t wait for pimples to form! If you see a bit of it in your face or sense some itch on your face then waste no time to do something about it. Apply pimple cream such as Oxy 5/10 or any other suitable cream to reduce the swollen infected areas. Acne control is best done early.
