Why You Should Not Care About Different Types of Acne

July 3, 2019 by Anjali Lobo Leave a Comment

If you suffer from acne, I’m sure you’ve come across articles with titles like “The Different Types of Acne”. Or maybe some version of them. I always read articles with titles like this with a little bit of annoyance. Why the annoyance you might wonder. It’s because these articles never had any cure for any of the types of acne they listed.

People with acne have very little interest in the type of acne they have. We need a cure or what we can do about acne. I know I have acne. I don’t know about you but never have I wondered what type of acne it is, but what I am mainly reading the article for is a hope of a cure mentioned somewhere.

5 Reasons Why You’re Breaking Out!

There’s nothing fair about acne. Absolutely nothing. What I have learned over the years though, is that it is of no use complaining about it. Complaining does absolutely nothing.

The best thing you could do for your skin and yourself is trying to figure out what is causing your acne and fix that. Most of the time we throw various treatments at acne in the hope that something will fix it. This is the same as taking a multivitamin for a fever. It won’t do anything for the fever.

While the multivitamin is actually beneficial for your body, most acne treatments are not. Antibiotics, accutane, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid all have side effects. Some mild, some severe. Keep using these treatments over the years and you could be doing serious damage to your body. The ointments may leave your skin dry and inflamed.

What Sugar Really Does To Your Skin

I just realised that there is not one article on the effects of sugar on my site, which is strange considering that quitting sugar was the first step in clearing my skin of acne.

I have always been a big fan of sweets and desserts. Baking my own cakes and making desserts became my passion, as I thought the commercially available ones tasted awful. Cake and dessert recipes were bookmarked and no time was wasted in trying them out. Among my friends and family, I am known as the person who makes the best cakes.
