First of all, we must know the cause of acne. Generally acne occurs when oil glands (sebaceous gland) which are attached to hair follicles are stimulated at time of puberty by increased level of specific hormones. Sebum (oil) is natural substance which is secreted from sebaceous gland, it helps to protect skin. Associated with elevated oil production is one kind of change in the manner in which skin cells mature so that cells are predisposed to clog the pores or openings of follicles. The clogged pore gradually enlarges and produce bump. When follicle enlarges, the wall rupture with irritating substances and bacteria (which normally situated on skin) access into the deeper portion of skin and causes inflammation. As a result pustule is produced and deeper inflammation results in pimple or papule. When the oil accumulates melanin, its named as blackhead and if oil breaks through to surface, it is named as whitehead.

Let's focus on the prevention of acne. Here's some tips for you, I think these are helpful for you.
- First thing you have to follow, that is- proper cleansing of your face. You have to wash your face to remove impurities, excess oil and dead cells. Use mild soap or cleanser and luke warm to wash face, try to wash your face 2 or 3 times a day. Please, avoid harsh chemical cleansers which will do harm if you have already inflamed skin.
- Always use oil free moisturizer. Before using moisturizer hydrate your skin. And one request to you, please, try to keep your hands away from your face without time of cleansing and moisturizing. You may ask the reason. Well, now focus on thinking that how many times you touch dirty things with your hands before touching your face. There's possibility to increase acne when oil and dirt on your hands transfer to your face. So, be careful.
- When acne occurs, try to avoid make up products such as foundation and blush. If you use make up products, then wash off carefully at the end of the day. And one thing, try to use organic and oil-free make up.
- Sometimes acne occurs due to having dandruff problems. Use medicated shampoo to keep clean scalp. Besides that, using harsh chemicals,oil or gel can drip on face and clog the pores and cause acne. You should be careful about using products on hair and scalp.
- Drink a lot of water, this will help you to wash off body toxins. Try to keep your bowel movement normal. Include a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables. Cut off oily spicy food and take fruit juice instead of soft drinks.
- Include exercise to your daily routine. Exercise helps you to avoid anxiety and maintain a good blood flow. Exercise is a good medicine for both mind & body and for skin too. Take a bath after exercise. This will help you to avoid bacterial attack due to sweating after exercise.
- Avoid excessive exposure to sun. Excessive exposure to sun can elevate skin inflammation, redness and blemishes. While working in the sun, put sunblock on your skin. Your sunblock must have SPF (sun protecting factor) 15 or above. Use sunblock before 15 minutes from going outside. Choose non-oily, alcohol free and organic sunblock.
- Keep yourself in jolly mood always. Good emotional state will give you a good health of skin. It is clinically proven truth.
Stay well, friends. Have a happy day with nice and glowing acne-free skin. :)
