Things You'll Need:

Step 1

Since we know that acne is due to excessive sebum production that causes clogged pores and inflammation ……..there are 3 simple steps you can take to address the very basic causes of acne symptoms and hopefully stop the break outs and inflammation.
Step 2

Wash Your Face
The best facial cleanser for acne prone skin must have the proper pH balance -- it’s important not to disrupt the pH balance of your skin. Even though the condition of acne is an excess production of sebum, you don’t want to over dry the skin. You want a pH balance of 4.2 to 5.6.
Step 3

Keep Pores Clean
Exfoliate - Skin cell turnover slows down as we age and this makes acne worse. A simple natural scrub made from sugar and baking soda will help removing old dead cells, keep pores clean.

You won’t believe how great your skin will look and feel after this scrub and it only costs pennies – not like those expensive, chemical laden store bought exfoliates.

A few times a week, apply salicylic acid which is great for acne problems. It helps dissolve dead skin cells, and unclog pores.
Step 4

Moisturize

For skin over 40, you need a moisturizer to soften fine lines and wrinkle, but you don’t want to clog the pores. The best and most natural moisturizer you can use is Emu Oil.

This oil not only protects your skin from moisture loss, it is healing oil and helps reduce irritation and inflammation.

Remember, the moisturizer you’re using now could be full of chemicals, dyes and salts – all further aggravating acne prone skin. Emu oil is pure emu oil….no other ingredient.
