Acne is a skin condition which can be difficult to treat, unless you have the proper information. The main type of acne that most people develop, especially adolescents, is acne vulgaris. This is considered the easiest to treat and the most common. It can usually be effectively treated with what is known as topical treatment products. These are all the creams, ointments, lotions, facial scrubs, and moisturizers that you see in drugstores.

So if you’re in the same boat as I was, here are some tips that will help you clear acne in under a week:

  • Stop using topical creams and harmful drugs

    • Creams will only make your acne worse if you ever stop using them. They only address the symptoms of your pimples and zits and not the root cause. Anti-biotics are even worse because acne eventually becomes immune the drug and comes back full force, if not worse!

    And don’t even get me started on Accutane. I believe it’s one of the most harmful drugs ever invented…

  • Start eating acne-fighting foods

    • There are certain foods out there that have an amazing capability to halt acne in its tracks. Foods that have omega-3, for instance, are excellent anti-inflammatory choices.

  • Stop eating acne-forming foods

    • On the flip side, there are certain foods that you may be eating that have a dramatic effect on causing acne. If you don’t get rid of these foods, you could have acne well into your adult life (I’ve even talked to people with severe acne in their 50s!)
