Cosmetic Companies want you to have bad skin, that way you are in desperation and always looking. Looking, to find the answer to clearing your acne skin. The connection between acne and mainstream acne products is “dehydration”. What we don’t know about the care of acne is that over washing not only irritates existing acne skin, but can dry the skin by removing the skins protective layer of natural oils which actually prevents the spread of acne associated bacteria. These activities destroys the skins natural resilience and protective properties by destroying the skin natural pH. Further use of scrubbing cleansers can makes things worse, by further stripping the skin and creating an environment where the skin will have difficulty recuperating to its natural healthy state. The worst fallacy of acne is that it is directly due to what you eat, in turn, causing increase bacterial growth and oil build up. Therefore you need to keep it clean, but no to the extent of your skin becoming dry. People do not realize that the truth regarding acne, is that acne needs moisture, and we fail to moisturize acne skin. We are taught that acne skin must be scrubbed and cleansed anywhere from twice to three times daily it order for it to go away. Not true! You not only will be destroying your skin but will only exacerbate your problem of acne. The answer is balance, use a low or non alkaline cleanser or facial wash, followed by a good hydration cream, or low percentage glycolic acid cream.
