Skin Clearing Strategies for Oily, Acne, Dehydrated Skin
What Can Cause Acne on Your Face? Acne and oily skin is almost always an internal issue; root causes often include digestive issues. I have treated hundreds and hundreds of clients (of all ages) over the years who came to me with a (seemingly) impossible combination of skin issues that were direct opposites of each other – all at the same time – oily, dry, and dehydrated – all at the same time! Complicated combination skin issues seemed impossible to correct, and most of these people have tried everything out there (at least twice). The skin gets worse – usually with added redness to compound the existing issues as a result.
Once you understand what creates this frustrating combination of skin conditions, you can create an effective plan to correct and balance this difficult condition once and for all. Matching the correct ingredients to each skin condition and balancing the skin’s pH is where the magic happens, and you can begin (finally) to see impressive results quickly.
This combination of skin problems is recognizable by a dry, scaly, or flaky skin layer with a layer of oil sitting on top, often accompanied by breakouts and blemishes. Simply put, the skin has a very oily subsurface with a very dry surface layer of dead skin cells that traps the oil in the pores, causing them to become larger and more congested – making the problem worse. Dealing with the dry, dehydrated part is often a temporary condition caused by harsh, acidic products that alter the skin’s health pH in the vain attempt to fix the problem. Changing your approach to skin cleansing and upgrading your ingredients will correct this.
What Causes Acne on Face?
Acne and oily skin is almost always an internal issue; root causes often include digestive issues. The body’s inability to properly digest fat along with hormone imbalances, candida, and yeast can create a perfect storm for serious problem skin conditions.
Diet is always a consideration, and here is a list of foods that aggravate acne include: sugar, fast food, dairy products, candy, and refined grains. The age-old question of “what causes oily skin” results from an overproduction of sebum (oily, waxy substances) in that excrete from your pores, and there are a few reasons why this happens. The environment (more pollution=more oil), your stress levels (more stress=more oil), and your hormones (your monthly period=more oil) can all play a role in how oily your complexion is on any given day. And, as anyone who’s dealt with oily skin likely knows, increased oil production also goes hand-in-hand with acne. Breakouts can happen when excess sebum gets trapped inside the pore. Down the line, that sebum mixes with bacteria and dead skin, and a pimple occurs. We are here to help you stop the cycle and repair acne breakouts and damaged skin.
How Do You Choose Products for Problem Skin?
Numerous studies have shown that salicylic acid (BHA) and Alpha Hydroxy Acids are essential anti-acne ingredients and the first over-the-counter choice before you seek professional attention. However, many products containing salicylic acid also include harsh, skin-aggravating ingredients that can increase oil production and cause flaky, rough, dry patches. See the pattern here?? That’s why it’s so critical that you choose anti-acne products carefully.
