What Is A T-Zone?

301You 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.

Help For Acne Sufferers

biocPainful acne lesions affect both men and women and can occur during puberty through adulthood.  Many people experience acne flair-ups with hormonal surges that are associated with pregnancy, puberty, or their menstrual cycle.  Acne is an inflammatory condition which causes painful pustules, papules, and cysts to occur on the face, neck, back, chest, or arm areas.

Acne prone skin is very sensitive.  Skin care experts agree that commercial soaps and cleaners are too harsh for those who suffer from acne lesions.  Irritation and redness can occur when sensitive skin becomes dried out during the cleaning process.  Many commercial soaps and cleaners contain perfumes and additives that remove oil and dirt from the skin that will also strip the skin.  People with acne-prone skin should instead use a gentle cleanser like the IS Clinical Cleansing Complex on their face to maintain a healthy balance.

Clogged pores equate to painful and irritating clogged pores and pimples.  Keeping your pores clear is paramount to keeping acne lesions from forming. Using Jan Marini’s Bioglycolic Bioclear Cream is a must have for anyone wishing to keep acne away.  It’s perfect for controlling breakouts and will smooth fine lines and even out skin tone too.  You can find these and other fantastic acne products available at Skin Gift.

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.

Avoiding Dry Skin

normal-combo_kit_mYou may experience dry facial skin for a variety of different reasons.  Skin becomes dehydrated when oil glands do not supply enough lubrication to the skin.  Your skin can also become dry due to repeated exposure to the elements, especially during the winter.  Environmental factors such as chemicals, cosmetics, using harsh skin cleansers, and exposure to the sun, wind, or cold can affect your skin adversely.

Consuming specific foods are believed to help with dry skin issues.  Dieticians say that dry skin suffers should eat a balanced diet that includes vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds and nuts.  If you are looking for your skin to remain smooth and youthful, consume garlic, onions, eggs, and asparagus.  Yellow and orange vegetables are high in beta-carotene, an important skin antioxidant which will help keep you skin smooth.  Eating fried foods leads to the production of free radicals which has a destructive effect on your skin.

Jan Marini’s Skin Care Management System for Very Dry Skin was developed to help improve the appearance of common skin conditions such as fine lines, wrinkles, skin discoloration, sun damage, acne, and rosacea.  Jan Marini Skin Research developed this amazing skin care system to be used for prolonged use with no irritation to your skin.  This five step skin care system has everything you need in one convenient package.  For cleansing, rejuvenation, resurfacing, hydrating, and protecting…Jan Marini has you covered!  You’ll find this and other great products by Jan Marini Skin Research available at Skin Gift.
