We really hate that pimples and spots on our faces and necks. Don't we? No matter how much you try to keep them away, you encounter them often. Though it is not dangerous but it leaves scars on face. Generally it is influenced by hormones, menstrual cycle, stress, hot and humid climates and oil-based makeup. Here are some suggetsions by experts to have acne-free skin.

* Many times acne is caused by internal imbalances, especially with your hormones. Blood tests and ultrasounds can help rule out anything that is causing acne from within. Problems within your gut can also cause acne through a pathway called the "gut-skin axis". 

* To stop this, eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, pre and pro-biotics. Also, avoid dairy and high glycemic foods as they worsen or create hormonal imbalances.

* Do not be too harsh with your skin. Many think that acne is simply an overproduction of oil and they can scrub it dry with harsh soaps and exfoliators. The truth is that overly-dry skin can make acne even worse. 

* Acne is an inflammatory process that causes a lot of redness and swelling; the harder you scrub, the more likely you will damage your skin leading to marks and worsening irritation. Also, do not pick at your pimples, this will only result in marks.

* Opt in for the perfect cleanser. It is important to exfoliate your skin not excessively but 2-3 times a day. If the skin has enough moisture it doesn't secrete its own oil and hence no breakouts.

* Moisturise your skin frequently. Your skin needs to be moisturised regularly to keep the outer layer of the skin properly hydrated and leave it feeling soft and supple. If it is raining, try using non-water based moisturiser so if you get wet, it won't completely wash off. 

Oily skin is more prone to acne, hence, using tea tree oil will be helpful. As it is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, it fights acne in an effective way. Somehow if you get infected, don't touch pimples and spots and wash your hands before applying any cream or antiseptic.
