Most skin cleansers, moisturizers and make-up contain so many chemicals that damage our cells.

Have you heard of SLS or Sodium Lauryl Sulphate? It is used in most skin cleansers and creams. It actually enlarges skin pores.

If you are interested google 'Sodium Lauryl Sulphate'.

If you want nice skin, there are products which do not contain all these chemicals in them. Always read the labels - anything with lots of numbers or words that are difficult to pronounce are best avoided.

Good skin products contain natural oils and organic ingredients. Organic oils such as Almond Oil, Calendula infused Oil, Jojoba oil and Macadamia Oil are excellent for the skin. When applied in their natural form straight onto the skin they do a great job at healing acne and blemishes. They can also be worn under make-up.

Even though they are oils, they don't cause spots and blemishes. They do just the opposite and heal them. Better than chemical 'disappearing' creams which do damage to the skin. Even though these promise to take away blemishes, they contribute to you getting more within the next few days. This is due to some of the chemical components of those products.

Acne is caused from the pores being open and dirt getting into the pores and causing a reaction. Good cleansing of the skin is done by using a mild soap (dial or basis soap). From a prescription standpoint...metrogel and cortisone cream is used to help take care of the acne. Over the counter astringents and over the counter cortisone applied twice a day should reduce the inflamation of the skin and help the acne. Keep in mind that acne is also caused from some foods that we eat and the exposure to dirt etc.
