Yes, Acne Can Be Controlled!

Lots of girls your age struggle with blemishes.  Most of us live through acne but I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.  If you find that you are experiencing breakouts of pimples and  blackheads there is hope!  Acne cannot be cured but it can be controlled.

If you have been using a gentle cleanser (not soap) and moisturizer but you find that you are still experiencing breakouts, it’s time to get serious and start a medicated skin treatment program.  We have found that Proactive skincare is the best for clearing up acne and keeping it under control.  Many girls will experience a mild or severe breakout before their period starts.  This is because hormones are the cause of acne.  Diet can contribute to making it worse or irritating it but it’s hormones that cause breakouts.  At your age, your hormones are changing and fluctuating so that your body transforms into a woman.  This also causes the breakouts you may be experiencing.

Understanding what is causing your breakouts is helpful but what you really need  are products that are made to help control the breakout.   Like most skincare products Proactive is used as a system.  Their system includes cleanser, moisturizer, toner and a mask.  They also have other products for specific problems.  You can purchase the products online or they may be carried in your mall.  The cost is average as far as skincare goes which is about $ 60 for the four products listed above.  They usually last around three months.  Online they have an automatic shipment that you can sign up for and get the products at a discount.  We do not like acting as a commercial for specific products, but in this case, we are happy to let others know what really works for clearing up the complexion.

Depending on the severity of your breakouts, using a medicated skincare system may be all you need to clear things up.  Some girls will need more help if they have cystic acne and will need to seek the help of a dermatologist.  Having clear skin is important for a girl’s confidence and sense of wellbeing.  It is not vanity to take care of your skin and your appearance.  Ask your mom to check things out if you think you could benefit from a medicated skincare program.  Moms want their daughters to be confident and they want them to come to them with anything!
