Cleaning acne prone skin as gently as possible is one of the most important steps one must follow in order to sucseed in war against acne. Doctors, dermatologysts advice to have our skin cleaned twice a day with a gentle skin cleanser. Most of us do follow these advices thinking that we do the right thing.
All skin cleansers are not a like and we must read the ingredients list to make sure that they don't have the substanses which will irritate our skin or even worse - to give us more brake outs. Don't just go and buy a cleanser just because you derm told you so or because it is all over the news. I think by now we are all smart enough to see the difference between advertisement and real things. Most gentle cleansers are cleansers based on 100% natural ingredients. The only way to find out if a cleanser made with natural ingredients is to check the inngredients. If you see something in there that you can not even pronounse or you don't know what it is, then don,t buy it. Most likely it will irritate your skin and make your acne worse.
Lately, we read a lot about using just warm water as a skin cleanser to clean acne prone skin. It's been discussed in many different skin care forums and blogs. We also get many positive responses from people who uses just plain water twice a day without any skin cleansers or soaps. When you think about it, it does make sence that water has probably most minerals than any cosmetic cleanser on the planet.
It seems that we have more and more comments from people who uses the Baby brush method aganst acne. Some responds we get are positive and some are with information that the effects on acne and mostly on black heads from the baby brush method is not as effective as they expected. I think to properly evaluate this method one
must realize that it is not intended to treat acne or get read of them completly. The Baby brush method does help with the black heads though. When used, it helps to open up skin pores to allow the acne medication to penetrate deeper.
Remember, if you decide to use the Baby brush method in you daily acne regimen, then make sure that first of all you are not overdoing it. Do it once or twice a wek. Make sure you let your skin to get dry enough so you can apply the acne medication after this.
And finaly, i personaly support any acne product which is all natural. As long as it heps to kill acne bacteris and as long as the acne cream is natural product then i personaly for it. I do not like the idea of taking anything inside though, i mean taking pills because no matter what, there must be some ingredients in it of chemical nature.
As of the use of Benzoyl peroxide and the Baby brush method, the Benzoyl peroxide is bad in any form and in any consistency. It may work for a while to stop the acne infection but don't forget the Benzoyl Peroxide goes in our blood so think twice before using it.
On our web-site http://skinimprovements.com we offer some great products for acne treatment, all 100% natural so check it out and let us know what you think.
When it comes to advertising on acne, rosacea or any other skin products, every company uses different technics as far as marketing tools. While doing some research on acne advertisement i found out that some top companies such as Murad, Neutrogena and few others have something
negative to say about the Proactive in their advertising compains. Granted, the Benzoyl Peroxide is not my choice to trat acne but why picking on the Big guy if you use it yourself.
Take for instance very respectfull Web site - Acne .org. It is probably one of the best acne resourse as far as acne content and it uses same ingredients as Proactive does with only difference - acne.org regiment uses smaller procentage of Benzoyl Peroxide and yet there can be found some bad words about the Proactive solution.
The Proactive acne solution used Benzoyl Peroxide in its ingredients for ages now and has proven its efficasy. When one visits their Web site, it is not hard to find the list of their ingredients but if you check the others who say negative things about the Proactive - well, you try to find the list of ingredients. Good luck if you try because i couldn't.
I personaly think that us the consumers and acne or rosacea sufferers should start learning to read between the lines and finally understand that Big companies are not consern about us being cured from acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis or other skin disorders. The first thing they consern is the packaging, how the product look. More money spent on look of the product than in ingredients or more expensive and more affective treatment.
