Continuing from Tuesday…
• Sun tanning will improve acne. Lying in the sun will dry out the skin for a short period of time, but it won’t stop the oil production completely. Ultraviolet rays are strong, but they will not penetrate deep enough into the pores of your skin to kill the bacteria that causes acne. So it may feel like getting a tan is helping improve your acne, but it is an extremely short lived time frame.
• Using sunscreen causes acne breakouts. Like people, not all sunscreens are alike. Some formulas may be more irritating to your skin and some may clog your pores causing breakouts. Using sunscreen is extremely important as it is the only way to protect your skin from the suns dangerous UVA and UVB rays. IS Clinical’s Treatment Sunscreen won’t clog your pores and provides the protection you need.
• Stress causes acne. The verdict is still out on this one. Some studies have shown that stress does affect acne production in some people. To be safe and acne free, it’s important to eat a healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and sleep well. With any luck, living a healthy life style will help you remain acne free!

You may have heard the term before…the “T-Zone”. Everyone has a T-Zone area and people with oily or combination skin typically struggle with acne, blackheads and oil in this area. On your face the T-Zone is the area which is the most prone to have acne breakouts.
Are you wondering where your T-Zone is? Imagine drawing a line straight across your forehead. Now draw a line from the middle of the sides of your forehead, down your nose, including part of your chin. Add the sides of your nose into your imaginary “T” too, because this is a place that typically becomes very oily and develops clogged pores and acne lesions on many peoples face.
There’s no need to fret about keeping your T-Zone clean and acne free. You can end your frustration by using Obagi’s CLENZIderm M.D. Daily Care Foaming Cleanser. It will remove dirt and excess oil so that your face will feel clean and refreshed. The benzoyl peroxide in Obagi’s CLENZIderm M.D. Pore Therapy will provide deep cleaning into the follicle so acne lesions cannot grow. Moisturizing your face is just as important as cleansing it. Use Obagi’s CLENZIderm Therapeutic Moisturizer to calm and sooth your skin. You’ll find each of these fine skin care products available at Skin Gift.

Acne problems are often associated with the teen years as the hormones change and shift frequently in children. Many adults tend to suffer from acne problems as well, which can occur at any moment in time. Research has shown that adult acne affects 25% of all adult men and 50% of adult women at some point in their adult lives. Of those affected by facial acne, 1/3 will also develop acne on their body as well. Adult acne can cause the same social anxiety and depression in adults that affects youngsters in their teen years.
Acne develops when bacteria, dead skin cells, dirt, and oil blocks pores. The build-up then leads to inflammation which causes acne lesions to occur. Dermatologists and skin care experts agree that acne treatment is best met head on with a healthy dose of benzoyl peroxide, no matter what age group you are in.
The Obagi Clenziderm M.D. Acne Treatment Package provides everything you need to achieve deep penetration into the follicle to treat stubborn acne at the root. Using the Obagi Clenziderm M.D. Acne regime can help restore your skin’s natural balance for a clear and radiant complexion. You can find this and other fantastic Obagi products available at Skin Gift.

Acne is a skin condition that plagues many teenagers and even adults in their 30’s and 40’s. Skin care experts say that acne causes unsightly blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed red growths (papules, pustules, and cysts) to form. These growths are typically called “pimples” or “zits.”
Acne is caused when the pores on your skin become clogged by oil, dirt, debris, and bacteria. Once the pores become blocked, whiteheads or blackheads form. When inflammation is deep within the skin, painful cysts may form. If the clogged pore breaks open under the skin, the bacteria will cause red bumps and swelling to form.
No matter what age you are, acne treatment can be frustrating when you endure repeated unsuccessful attempts of eliminating acne with store bought brands, only to have acne return. Acne suffers everywhere can benefit from the many useful acne products that are available from Dr. Obagi. The Obagi CLENZIderm M.D. products take the frustration out of acne treatment. Obagi’s CLENZIderm M.D. Acne Treatment Package will give you rapid results as it penetrates deep into the follicle to treat acne problems where they begin.
