Susan Fox, founder of Eden Beauty Group, explains how tackling acne effectively means tackling ALL of the causes
This month is Acne awareness month. Acne apart from the physical effects acne can cause huge issues psychologically for sufferers, often lowering their self confidence and in extreme situations their mental health.If acne is severe and prolonged I recommend visiting a dermatologist as they can prescribe medication to alleviate the worst symptoms and prevent scarring and pitting.Hormones: I love the Accumax supplements from Advanced Nutrition.
Products like the Casmara Age control matt cream are ideal for this skin type. It contains hyaluronic acid to help with hydration while liposomal zinc decreases sebum reduction and mattifies your skin. It also contains bakuchiol, a natural alternative to retinol, that works in a very similar way but without any sensitivity issue. It is one of the few products that targets ageing and breakouts simultaneously. Apply morning and evening on cleansed skin.
Bringing teenagers to a skin clinic for a facial is a great way to get them into good habits and allows a skin therapist to advise them on the right products and educate them on a skincare routine. If your acne is severe visit your GP as there are a number of prescription topicals that can treat the condition before it progresses and causes scarring and pitting.
