Understanding the How and Why? Say Goodbye to Acne!
What’s Up With Acne, Anyway?
Ever wonder why you get acne? You're not alone. Acne usually starts when oil and dead skin clog up your hair follicles. Imagine your skin like a busy highway; sometimes traffic gets jammed, and that's when acne happens. Factors that can make it worse include:
Stress: Yep, stress can mess with your skin. When you're stressed, the hormone cortisol kicks in and makes your skin oilier.
Hormones change: Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause, can affect oil production. They can send your oil glands into overdrive.
Diet: Eating a lot of sugar and processed carbs could make your skin oily and lead to acne. But it's not the same for everyone; how food affects your skin can be complicated.
Skincare Products: Using skincare products that are too harsh can dry out your skin, making it produce even more oil to balance things out. So, make sure you're using the right products for your skin condition not clogging your pores even more.
The Acne Drama: What Goes Down
Oil Overload: Your skin makes too much oil.
Clogged Pores: This oil mixes with dead skin and blocks your pores.
Bacteria Bash: Acne bacteria love clogged pores.
Red Alert: Your skin gets inflamed, and voila—acne!
