If someone asked you what the best acne product was, how would you respond them? Would you know how different acne treatments work, and which acne products worked best for each skin type? In order to understand which acne treatment is best, you need to first understand what your skin requires in order to become acne free. Every single person has a different skin type, and the only way to completely eliminate skin problems is to know why your skin is acting the way it is.

For example, does your skin pores get clogged easily? That probably means that you are shedding a lot of skin, and those dead skin cells mix with sebum in order to produce clogged pores. In order to combat this, you need a good exfoliant that gets rid of the dead skin cells, so the sebum can freely flow out of your skin.

What if bacteria are the main issue? If you touch your face, and touch another part of your face, does the acne spread? There are serious cases where bacteria are a main issue, however it’s not for most acne situations. For the most part, you can get away with using benzoyl peroxide only. However, if the situation is serious, you probably want to go see the Dermatologist.
