Proactiv® Solution Acne Treatment
Acne blemishes can cause embarrassment and lack of self-esteem. You might shy away from social situations, avoid meeting new people, and miss important opportunities. On top of that, many people secretly harbor feelings of guilt. It's not unusual to wonder, "What am I doing wrong to cause my skin to break out?"
The good news is that acne is not your fault. And here's even better news: There's much you can do to help control and prevent it.
It's not your fault!
The biggest myth about acne is that it is caused by bacteria and dirt which leads many to use harsh cleansers or rubbing alcohol that strip the skin. That's not true! Acne is caused by your hormones and your skin's inability to slough off old, dead cells. This is determined by your genes — not by the number of times you wash your face or the foods you eat.
Medical studies show that diet- including chocolate, pizza and
French fries - rarely causes acne. Over
washing your face or stripping it with alcohol in an effort to "clean" your skin can actually make blemishes worse.
Acne is NOT caused by:
• Dirt • Chocolate
• French fries or greasy foods
