There are numerous ways to cure acne. However due to the various causes of acne, what works for one person may not necessarily work for another. Finding there right acne free treatment can be frustrating and especially with so many treatments popping up nowadays only leads to more confusion.





Before we get into the treatment for today, lets look at acne for a little bit. Now acne is caused by over active sebaceous glands. The sebaceous gland is a hormone that produces an oil called sebum to protect he skin. However there are times when the sebaceous gland produce an excess amount of oil. When this occurs, the oil accumulates and get thick and sticky. This thick and sticky oil on the surface of the skin traps dirt and bacteria and clog the pores leading to acne.





The Oil Cleansing Method





What you will need:





Warm Water





Cold Water





Clean Towels





Castor Oil





Olive Oil





The first thing you need to do is to wash your face gently to remove excess dirt and oils from the surface.





You will then need to warm a clean towel in warm water and apply it to your face for 3 minutes. Do the same thing with the cold water but this time for one minute.





Carry out both the warm water and cold water procedure about 3 times but always finish with cold and then pat dry with another clean towel.





Next mix a small amount of castor oil with a small amount of olive oil. A 50/50 ratio will do just fine. Apply the mixture to your skin and let it stay there for 30 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel and you are good to go.





This only one technique that can be used to get rid of acne.How do i keep from getting acne on my forehead?
You can keep your hair long, but you really need to get it off your forehead. Sorry, but it is the truth. Wash your face with gentle soap and water every night, don't leave makeup on, etc. Try a benzoyl peroxide cream (e.g. oxy lotion) once a day to start, and work up to 2-3 times a day if your skin tolerates it well. If your skin does NOT tolerate it, try salicylic acid because it is better for sensitive skin. Find the product with the LEASE inactive ingredients so that you have less of a chance of being allergic and/or sensitive to something in it.





Good luck! See a dermatologist if that doesn't improve it.
Simple i have long hair too. www.itechfeed.com has a great section on acne full of information and they have products and vitamins nd supplements. I took the pantolic acid SP? vitamin b, and then the PAC treatment they offer . It's similar to pro active but much much much more effective at least for me! hope this helps
Have you tried tea tree oil? It's not a ';normal'; acne medication, but it won't dry out your skin and can prevent breakouts from happening.
