MYTHS OF ACNE PREVENTION
1. CHOCOLATE GREASY FOOD AND CAFFEINE CAUSES ACNE BREAKOUTS
- That's a lie. In fact, research has shown that these food items (potato chips, chocolate, french fries etc) rarely causes acne!!! However, if your face DOES break out the next day after eating these things - it is best to find out WHICH FOOD ITEM caused the break out!
2. DRINK MORE WATER TO FLUSH OUT ACNE
- ******* lie. There's NO PROOF that water has that ability. That said, DO DRINK WATER in healthy amounts. i.e. THIRST DRIVEN DRINKING! Its your BODY that needs water (:
3. SUGAR CAUSES ACNE
- False. Like chocolate and greasy food. BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN EAT SWEETS LIKE THE WORLD'S GONNA END TOMORROW OKAY!!!
4. ACNE IS CAUSED BY OILY SKIN
- Okay, truth be told, I thought the oil skin and dirt clogged up my pores on the sides of my faces that gave me pimples there. But apparently not eh? Pores will be clogged whether or not you have dry or oily skin.
So that's about it. Ciao.
