There are many myths about acne. Today I would like to highlight five of them and I hope to destroy the myths for you and increase your chances of getting a clear skin.

1 acne is caused by poor hygiene : This is a myth. If you frequently wash your face every day, is likely to aggravate your acne. Acne is not (contrary to popular belief spread by the media), through the dirt and grease from the skin surface causes. Yes, the accumulation of excess oil, dead skin, and the accumulation of unsightly skin your Earth Day, but it should not be removed by wiping your hands.  The best way for you is good hygiene: Wash your face twice a day with a mild soap, dry and use an appropriate treatment for your acne.

2 The diet affect acne : This requires further investigation. As you know, some companies do not have experience acne for the whole population (see the Koreans and Japanese!), But may try to feed her. I know some people who love Japanese food and Korean food, and their skin is better than those who eat all kinds of western food. Unfortunately, there is no scientific evidence to support this theory.

3 Acne can be caused by stress : Stress can have an influence on the hormone, but not directly have an effect on acne. An effective system of acne is actually more powerful that the stress should stop worrying and stress can cause acne. Your time is better spent thinking about how to treat acne you are looking to continue their efforts to cause acne to blame.

4 tan lightens the skin : This is wrong. Tan can think mask or “fool” people, their skin heals, but in reality, not just the tanning process: to deceive people and perhaps themselves. You must realize that the sun can make the skin dry and irritated and fractures are common. There is no research to prevent acne with the sun and the link means that you can help only do more harm than good thinking about tanning. You must protect your skin when you choose a sunscreen of at least SPF (sun protection factor) 15 and make sure the label says the product is not comedogenic or nonacnegenic not clog the pores of the skin as well.

 
5 Myth Eating chocolate can cause acne : This is ridiculous. Eating chocolate can cause acne to occur. In fact, no research has shown that eating certain foods can cause acne outbreaks. However, each individual is different. It should be noted that foods can cause negative reactions on the skin, so you can avoid eating foods that prevent acne is extended to take over your face.
I hope this article just in the five myths can help your beliefs about acne and select appropriate treatment for them.
