Don't let acne define who you are. Do what you can to improve your skin, working with a dermatologist if necessary and keep doing the things you enjoy.
DRINK GREEN SMOOTHIES!!! Green smoothies are a simple and fast way to get your daily recommendation of vitamins such as Vitamin A and C, and drinking one every morning will get your skin glowing.
Being still and silent for at least 30 mins a day will help you calm down, especially when you feel high levels of anxiety. Turn off and put away any distractions and just BE. Close ur eyes, take deep slow breaths in through your nose and out of your mouth and get re-centered.
Exercise at least 4 days a week to have a strong body from the inside out. You will also sweat out toxins from your body that can actually fester in your body for longer than they should. SWEAT THAT JUNK OUT! Exercising releases stress and will help you sleep better as well.
When you are out in the sun, even for small amounts of time, your skin is damaged. Short of living in your basement and only coming out at night, using sunscreen every time you venture outside is the best way to avoid the damage that the sun can cause.
Drink lots of water daily to keep your skin looking moisturized and radiant. Water brings life to your skin while caffeinated and/or sugary drinks will dehydrate you and make you look washed out. Add lemon to your water to even out your skin tone and keep your skin less oily.
Tomatoes are packed with vitamins like Vitamins A and C which ward off premature aging while healing skin issues from acne to sun damage. Tomatoes are delicious on their own or in many dishes so get creative and add more tomatoes to your diet.
Resist touching, picking, and popping your acne. Popping a pimple may seem like the fastest way to clear it, but popping it can actually make things worse. Every time you touch, pick, or pop, you can worsen acne.
