Natural Acne Treatment for Men #BeautySecrets

Acne is a condition where the skin pores are clogged, inflamed and turn out into a bump that is filled with pus. Most people suffer from acne at some point in their life. Though it is not very common, men also suffer from acne sometimes. Unlike women when this condition affects a man his whole career is at risk for the simple reason that no one will believe that a man is suffering from acne. There is a slight difference between the skin types of men and women, but methods of acne control are almost the same. Skin care for men those are acne prone may be slightly different from the women's in a few distinct ways. While women are more prone to acne due the make-up and lotions they put on their faces or skin, men are prone to acne because of the activities that they indulge in, and also certain factors in their environments. Acne in them is essentially caused by the use of harsh men's skin care products including shaving products, though it is not the sole reason for acne in men. Another reason is the overproduction of sebum in the body due to their hormones. This overproduction may lead to acne and subsequent scarring. Men are more prone to this because their skin tends to be more oily and thicker than those of women.

While men may not wear makeup on their faces, there are some who will use certain male cosmetic items that may come in contact with their skin. Included in the list of cosmetic items that men should be careful of are aftershave lotions or splashes that may contain certain substances that can cause acne, hair gel or hair spray or any hair styling substances, shaving cream that is not non-comedogenic, and facial cleansers and toners that may cause breakout.

Here are some tips that tell you what the best acne treatment for men.

Acne control, even for men, begins with following a skin cleansing procedure. It should be done at least twice a day, by using a mild but good face wash. Since men are prone to having oily skin, use a face wash for men meant specifically to treat oily skin. Exfoliation is as important as cleansing, but should be followed only twice a week. Use a moisturizer after you cleanse, exfoliate, or shave. Moisturizing creams and lotions for the face should be lighter than those used for the body, and shouldn't be too heavy or too oily. Before going out for the day, it is preferable to use a sunscreen lotion having minimum of 15 SPF. Back home at night, you should follow the similar routine to wash off the dust and dirt accumulated with sweat and oil over your facial skin. Shaving on a regular basis also takes away the moisture of the external layer of the skin, making it more rough and harsh. In this situation, acne can really affect the skin of a man much badly. So, each morning after shaving you should use a mild face wash product to clean your face thoroughly.

To avoid acne and to keep the skin look younger, it is good to consume fresh vegetables and fruits, antioxidant rich vitamins like the vitamin a and c can help in the prevention of acne and other infections. This basic skin care routine will be sufficient to keep your skin glowing and acne free.
