Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. Acne usually appears on your face, neck, chest, back and shoulders.

Skin Challenges

Effective treatments are available, but acne can be persistent. The pimples and bumps heal slowly, and when one begins to go away, others seem to crop up. Acne affects people of all ages though a big percentage is on teenagers

Depending on its severity, acne can cause emotional distress and scar the skin. The earlier you start treatment, the lower your risk of lasting physical and emotional damage. There are two types of acne, non-inflammatory and inflammatory.

Non-inflammatory acne is the easiest form of acne to treat but that doesn’t mean it’s any less embarrassing than other types of acne. This type of acne is characterized by the appearance of blackheads and whiteheads.

Inflammatory acne is a type of acne that is usually very red and pustular. The pimples caused by inflammatory acne are usually very painful, but there are several treatments on the market that will help clear up your acne.

Causes of Acne

Hair follicles are connected to oil glands. These glands secrete an oily substance (sebum) to lubricate your hair and skin. Sebum normally travels along the hair shafts and through the openings of the hair follicles onto the surface of your skin.

When your body produces an excess amount of sebum and dead skin cells, the two can build up in the hair follicles. They form a soft plug, creating an environment where bacteria can thrive. If the clogged pore becomes infected with bacteria, inflammation results.

The plugged pore may cause the follicle wall to bulge and produce a whitehead. Or the plug may be open to the surface and may darken, causing a blackhead. A blackhead may look like dirt stuck in pores. But actually the pore is congested with bacteria and oil, which turns brown when it’s exposed to the air.

Pimples are raised red spots with a white center that develop when blocked hair follicles become inflamed or infected. Blockages and inflammation that develop deep inside hair follicles produce cyst-like lumps beneath the surface of your skin. Other pores in your skin, which are the openings of the sweat glands, aren’t usually involved in acne.

Risk factors for acne include:

• Hormonal changes : changes are common in teenagers, women and girls, and people using certain medications, including those containing corticosteroids, androgens or lithium.
• Family history: Genetics plays a role in acne. If both parents had acne, you’re likely to develop it, too.
• Greasy or oily substances: You may develop acne where your skin comes into contact with oily lotions and creams or with grease in a work area.
• Friction or pressure on your skin: This can be caused by items such as telephones, cellphones, helmets, tight collars and backpacks.
• Stress: This doesn’t cause acne, but if you have acne already, stress may make it worse.

Treating a face with acne using natural products

The skin must be nourished from the inside-out. Our skin is like a screen and any psychological and physiological problem will be reflected on the screen which is your skin. Poor diet, smoking and alcohol will also have a severely damaging effect on the skin’s appearance. When it comes to  Forever Living Products, we treat acne both internally and externally. Below are some products that helps to clear acne.

Suggested Internal Nutritional Supplementation

Aloe Vera gel ~Helps to cleanse and nourish the digestive track. When skin cells are first produced deep in the epidermis, they are rather large and very much alive, but by the time they reach the surface after 21 – 28 days (in normal skin), they are a shadow of their former selves and are transformed into just thin flakes of keratin which eventually fall off. Aloe Vera Gel provides the essential nutrition to feed the basal cells. Therefore the skin remains healthy and is able to perform its vital functions more efficiently as well as looking much better!

 Berry Nectar ~ Contains pycnogenol, a powerful antioxidant within the cranberries. Pycnogenol is an important nutrient in relation to the skin; it helps to maintain collagen and reduces histamine release. It contains all of the goodness found in our  Aloe Vera Gel, plus the added benefits of cranberry and apple.The delicious flavor is totally natural, prepared from a blend of fresh cranberries and sweet, mellow apples.

A-Beta-Care ~  A-Beta-Care is an essential formula with vitamins A (beta-carotene) and E, plus the antioxidant mineral selenium. Antioxidants are vital in the fight against free radicals, (chemical molecules that arise from pollutants in the body and which can damage healthy cells). Vitamin A has long been recognized as a powerful nutrient for the sight and the skin.  A-Beta-Care is a specially formulated nutritional supplement that supplies vitamin A to the body in the beta-carotene form. The body converts beta-carotene to vitamin A in the small intestine during digestion as and when it is needed. So there is no fear of an overdose of vitamin A, which can be toxic when taken in large doses. Beta-carotene is also a recognized antioxidant, making it an ideal companion for vitamin E and selenium. Vitamin E is an excellent supplement for healthy skin too.

Absorbent -C ~ Daily vitamin C has long been associated with good health – ever since the days that sailors discovered the importance of citrus fruits on long sea voyages. Science has now provided us with a list of other benefits derived from this most famous of all vitamins. It is a powerful antioxidant, forming part of the body defense system against the harmful effects of free radicals. Vitamin C is a beneficial supplement for the skin, as it increases the formulation of inter cellular collagen. Vitamin C is necessary for the maintenance of healthy connective tissue.
Vitamin C is water-soluble any excess is excreted from the body. Since humans are unable to make their own vitamin C, we must therefore get it from our food, drink and supplements. The need for adequate levels of vitamin C is very evident. Science reports that one cigarette destroys 25mg of vitamin C. Stress, medication and environmental factors all deplete the body of vitamin C.

Garlic – Thyme ~ Garlic is a complex plant. The principal active ingredient in raw garlic is allicin. When garlic is cut or crushed, the allicin reacts with the enzyme amylase (also present in the garlic). This gives garlic its characteristically pungent smell. Allicin is a very powerful bacteria-fighting agent, which enters the bloodstream, bowels and skin. Allicin is the main active ingredient in  Garlic-Thyme supplement.
Other active ingredients include ajoene, an anti-clotting agent and lecithin, which help clean out fatty deposits such as cholesterol, and help the body convert fats to energy. Thyme contains an essential oil that is rich in a substance called thymol which acts as a powerful antiseptic with antibacterial properties, and also acts as an antioxidant.

Garlic is a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the body against free radicals. Garlic also contains germanium, a mineral trace element believed to help the body’s immune system and selenium, a trace mineral antioxidant. Other beneficial nutrients contained in Garlic-Thyme are potassium, calcium, magnesium, B vitamins and vitamin C.

Factors which deplete our vitamin resource

• Contraceptive pill ~ depletes Vitamin C and zinc.
• Pollution ~ Vitamins A, C & E.
• Dieting ~ we lose out on vital vitamins and minerals
• Stress ~ depletes B vitamins, preventing the flow of oxygen to the skin
• Smoking and alcohol ~ produces free radicals in the skin, wrist destroying vital vitamins
• Tanning ~ sunshine oxidizes the fats in the skin, breaking down the collagen and elastin
• Pesticides and fertilizers ~ often mimic estrogen robbing our bodies of vitamin C and zinc
