   The tricky part about acne is that the problem can actually become worse if you overmedicate. That’s because acne medication can overdry the skin, causing a boost in your skin’s Sebum (oil) production. This results in…you guessed it - more acne.

   So what’s the long term solution? Find gentler solutions or even natural acne cures that won’t shock your body into more breakouts. Here’s what I recommend:

   - Use a glycerin based facewash. Glycerin is gentler and will balance the ph levels in your skin.
   - For body acne, try using an antibacterial soap to slowly dry out the skin. If your skin gets too dry, switch to a moisterizing soap like Dove to counterbalance the effect.
   - Wash your face only 2 times a day max and gently pat dry with a towel.
   - Use a gentle face moisterizer if the glycerin based face wash drys you out too much.
   - Eat almonds, fiber, drink lots of water and avoid excess sugar intake.
   - If acne medication isn’t working or causing new breakouts, try applying egg whites to the pimples at night before bed. This natural remedy works great.
   - One of my favorite natural skin conditioners is wearing an “oatmeal mask”. The oatmeal with smooth your skin while simultaneously absorb toxins and oils from your pores.
   - Lemon juice also dries up pimples and kills any bacteria in the infection.

   Best of Luck!
