KEEP STRESS AT BAY
Chances are good that your acne
is related to stress, so do what you can
to avoid high-stress situations. Although
stress is not a cause of acne, it may make
it worse in people already suffering from
it. Take the time out for yourself and just
relax. By frequently partaking in activities
that you enjoy, your stress levels will be
lowered. It is important to quit smoking
and to limit the consumption of caffeine if
you are prone to acne breakouts.
Reducing stress will put you in a better position
to control acne. Being stressed out
can cause your body to release chemicals
that are bad for your health overall, and can
make your acne worse. Reducing stress has
so many benefits it is well worth the effort,
be it by exercise, meditation or simply taking
a few minutes a day to be alone with
your favorite music. Acne thrives on stress,
so you need to focus on ways to lower it.

CUT DOWN ON CAFFEINE
Caffeinated drinks are especially aggravating
to your acne problems. Cutting
caffeine out of your diet could result in
fewer breakouts.
6
DO NOT MIX ACNE CREAMS
People often want to get rid of acne
as soon as they can, so they mix together
a lot of different lotions and creams and
think that they will work better as a unit.
When you do this, you are exposing your
skin to many different harsh ingredients.
This can cause damage to your skin.
