When it comes to acne, we all want it gone as quickly as possible, so we buy maximum strength products. The problem with this is that in most cases it is overkill. Why swat a fly with a flyswatter when it will be just as dead if we use a sledgehammer? Because the sledgehammer will do some pretty significant damage to the table the fly landed on. Similarly, when we use too strong a concentration of benzoyl peroxide, we may get rid of the zit quickly, but the rest of the skin suffers. Thus, the benzoyl peroxide trap. We have acne, we treat the acne with maximum strength product, the pimples clear up, then the skin dries out and becomes uncomfortable, we stop using the acne product, and the pimples come back. It's an endless circle, unless . . .
A simple Acne care routine would generally start with washing the skin. At this point, it would be necessary to point out that it is very important to know your skin type. Your choice of what to use for washing your skin would be influenced by your skin type as you would need something that would be mild on your skin type and would not irritate your skin. In washing your face, use lukewarm water and wash the whole face not excluding the jaw line and hair line. At most, wash twice a day ( morning and evening).
• Aloe vera is nature's healing plant. It is quite helpful for faster fading and healing of blotchy acne scars. You may use aloe vera in the form of gels, moisturizers or creams, best if it's in its organic pure form. Some products claim such but is otherwise, so take time to research on the right one. One good brand is Fruit of the Earth.
