Getting rid of acne requires a combination of several different things. Proper diet, exercise and topical applications work in conjunction to give you a healthy, beautiful face. By following the steps here, you can be well on your way to clearing your skin for good.
By eating the right foods and avoiding the bad one's, you can help avoid future breakouts. Specifically, avoiding processed food, red meat and dairy are the kinds of food you want to avoid. The simple truth is that you if have acne, you have food allergies of some sort. People who have acne tend to be allergic to things such as dairy or white breads/pasta and acne is just the body's way of trying to let you know that there's a problem.
Here's a quick dirty guide to know you're eating the right things. Avoid all the food in the inside isles like the plague. They tend to be processed and full of bad things like sugars and starches. Instead you should stay along the outside perimeter and buy only natural, unprocessed food. By cutting out the excess processed stuff, you'll cut down on many breakouts.
You don't have to give up your favorite foods by any means. I still eat red meat and I still consume dairy. You just have to find substitutions where you can and eat in moderation when you can't. My solution for the red meat is to eat only from cows that are grass fed and not given any hormones. If you like pasta or bread, switch to whole wheat or multi0grain alternatives. With just some small changes to your diet you can gain many benefits to the health of your skin.
Now we move on to exercise. This is an important step because by exercising, you detox your skin in a way. Both through sweat and by increased blood flow. The increased blood flow is the major contributor here as it brings more oxygen to your face while taking away more toxins. By just exercising 3 times a week, you'll see a great rise in the health of your skin.
Water consumption goes hand in hand with exercise. This is because for maximum performance during exercise, you have to be properly hydrated. In addition to exercise performance, staying well hydrated will keep your skin healthy, toxin free and moisturized. As far as how much to drink, well the old 6-8 glasses advice is a bare minimum. The truth is you need to consume a lot more than that. I personally drink anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 a gallon each day. Combined with the increased blood flow from exercise, water makes a pretty strong competitor against acne.
Finally, you'll want good products to take care of your face. Personally, I've stopped using any sort of medicines as I feel they're to harsh for my skin, not to mention they never worked very well and were expensive to boot. I've switched to using strictly homemade acne treatments and other solutions for acne. My favorite is the oil cleansing method, but there are a myriad of them out there.
One more quick note. You should always try to moisturize as it helps your face look good and keeps your skin healthy. You should always use a moisturizer that is non-comedogenic so it lets your pores breathe. In addition, you want one that is also made specifically for sensitive skin. Why sensitive skin? because if you have acne, your skin is sensitive and you should treat it as such. So remember, treat your body right and your skin will reward you.
