La Clinica Clear skin intensive spot serum

They say that when you grow up, you will outgrow acne. Whoever said that was wrong. Totally.

I had yet another acne breakout. This time, it lasted for almost half a year.

The pimples just kept brewing as hardened lumps beneath my skin.

Stress? Oh yeah. I was under relentless stress on the home front and at work. There was no peaceful haven for me.

Lowered immunity? I certainly was in rather bad shape too physically.

In any case, there’s an arsenal of acne remedies out there that can tackle the cosmetic side of things.

How to get rid of acne?

The steps are basic.

Unclog the pores.
Kill the bacteria.
Deal with the underlying cause be it hormones gone out of whack or a poor diet.

I used a deep cleansing kaolin mask to unclog the pores 3 times a week.

Natural facial mask with kaolin from A'kin

I used that at bedtime every night.

I’ve almost finished the entire bottle and my skin has cleared substantially.
