How to care for Acne

No cure is better than prevention so as much as possible start eating healthy.

Acne is a result of three factors: overproduction of oil, irregular shedding of dead skin cells and bacteria.

Avoid too much oily food, drink eight glasses of water and eat more vegetables and fruits. Acne remedies can only do so much for you unless you start taking better care of your skin.

A basic skin care routine is essential to prevent pimples

1. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Facial scrubs and astringents won't do because they have a tendency to irritate the skin more.

2. Use over-the-counter acne remedies like acne lotion to dry the excess oil and encourage peeling. Products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide works best.

3. Keep your face clean. Avoid having your hair touch the face because it can cause irritation and may increase the case of acne.

4. Do not pick or squeeze the pimple. You will make it worse.

How to get Healthy Skin

The following are the foods to get healthy skin.

Almonds

Gobble up a handful of almonds and you will be getting a healthy dose of vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect skin cells from the damage caused by the sun’s ultraviolet light.

Chicken

Chicken contains two nutrients, zinc and protein, that are crucial for healthy skin. Zinc helps maintain healthy skin, aids in healing wounds, and reduces inflammation, while protein keeps your skin fresh.

Tomato sauce

Tomato sauce is a concentrated source of lycopene. This antioxidant helps the skin protect itself from ultraviolet light.

Flaxseed

This is a good source of omega fatty acids, especially for vegetarians or people who don’t like the taste of fish. Omega 3 fatty acids are responsible for skin repair and moisture content and help build flexible cell membranes.

Yogurt

Staying in the shade is good for your skin because the sun’s ultraviolet rays can hasten wrinkles and raise your risk for skin cancer. The downside of avoiding the sun is that it limits your body’s production of vitamin D, which is crucial for bone health. Keep your levels up with dairy products such as yogurt that have been fortified with vitamin D.

Orange juice

Orage juice is packed with vitamin C, an antioxidant that helps protect the DNA in skin cells by neutralizing free radicals, atoms that damage cells and accelerate aging and disease. It can also help skin look great. Vitamin C is necessary for the production of collagen, which helps prevent our skin from sagging and wrinkling.

Mangoes

You keep your skin looking good with nourishing moisturizer and protective sunscreen. You can also build healthy skin from the inside out by packing your diet with lots of skin-saving nutrients. Sweet and delicious, mangoes are an excellent source of beta carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is necessary to maintain healthy skin and repair skin tissue--without adequate amounts of it your skin will be dry and flaky. Vitamin A may also reduce skin inflammation after exposure to sunlight.

How to get rid of Acne

 Below are the some tips to get rid of acne:

·         Apply neem oil on the acne regularly for 2-3 days. You will see redness and swelling disappearing within two to three days itself.

·         If you rub raw garlic on problem areas several times a day, you can clear up skin. You may also eat three seeds of raw garlic once daily for a month to see results. The garlic seeds purify the blood, which helps in keeping pimples at bay.

·         Take one teaspoon of coriander juice or Mint juice, combined with a pinch of turmeric powder and apply this paste to face everynight after washing your face.
