How to treat acne flare-ups - here are a few simple steps I take, and a few acne treatments I use, when it comes to a flare-up, suffering from monthly breakouts, long-term acne or getting maskne. #acne #howtotreatacne #breakouts #maskne

DISCLAIMER
I am not an expert, however, I've become an expert of my own skin and what's worked well over the past year. I wanted to share my experience and what I've found helps me and to also be honest about having acne!

Acne is not something that you can fix in a matter of days, it's a journey and it may take time. For my hormonal imbalances, I'm seeking medical advice and I recommend that you see your doctor or dermatologist (if you're lucky enough to see one) if this is something you've been struggling with.

I hope you enjoyed this video, even if it was to reassure you that you're doing everything you can for your skin and that IT GETS BETTER! Please do subscribe as I'd love to have you.

I’m currently filming a full evening skincare routine showing you everything I use. Let me know down in the comments if you’d like to see my morning routine - for when I don’t have a flare up.

SUPPLEMENTS MENTIONED

Maca root (helps to improve mood and reduce anxiety, promote hormonal balance which may prevent hormonal acne)

Superfood blend (probiotics, prebiotics, less sugar, reduce stress, etc can help improve gut microbiome. A disruption in the gut can cause an inflammatory response, which one of the main issues, is acne. Although this isn’t the main source of acne, it can contribute)
[ Ссылка ]

Zinc (I take this as a supplement – make sure it’s bioavailable but I also use zinc topically in my serums too)
Zinc is an anti-inflammatory which helps to protect your immune system and fight viruses and bacteria - and is one of the widely studies forms of acne treatment.
