Busting Acne Myths

Sunday, January 22nd, 2012

If you’ve been using your http://www.satellitestarinternet.com/ connection to look up acne treatments you’ve probably found yourself with a load of misinformation. Here are a few of the acne treatments we keep hearing about that are total bunk – take our word for it!
Stop Eating Fried Food: The biggest wives tale that comes with acne is that eating greasy or fried food gives it to you worse. If you think you get pimples from eating anything you’re all wrong – but drinking a lot of water WILL help.
Wash Your Face: ALL THE TIME. This one’s false, too. The more you wash your face the more your skin tries to produce oil to replace what it has lost – that’s a surefire way to make your acne even worse than it was before.
Don’t Go in the Sun: This one is so not true! The sun’s rays can actually give you a bit of an acne zap if you soak them in moderation – about 10 minutes of intense sun exposure can dry out your skin and actually cause your acne to recede.
