The little black demons on the face.

I hate the word ‘somehow’. That too, when it is used by a doctor, I get angry. We approach doctors only because we don’t know what to do when something bothers us for more than a couple of days-right?

When I met the dermatologist in his posh office, I didn’t ask him how to get rid of blackheads but asked him how those little black demons form on the face. He replied that the dark plugs get darken ‘somehow’.

If you happen to read articles in the Internet about blackheads, you will notice that faces with oily skin are more susceptible to get blackheads. But how will one find out whether the skin is oily or not? Do they have to use some sort of blotting paper on their face?

I am sorry for my outburst. I don’t like vague answers from educated persons.

7 days to freedom form acne.

Your nose may like some fragrances but not your skin. Ask any dermatologist about this and he will definitely agree. Of course there are exceptions; some fragrance may not cause skin reactions leading to acne. But, invariably, perfumes are the major cause for pimples.

While most of the acne products are effective in curing acne, they take more than a month to give you a blemish less face. There is a particular acne product called 7 day acne Detox that I recently read in a review website of acne products.

This product is said to contain a few new ingredients that are helpful in quickly curing the annoying pimples.

In particular, the rather relatively unknown herb called Witch Hazel is used in the formulation of 7 day acne Detox. Witch Hazel leaf is a strong astringent that fights acne.

Useful tip:
To avoid eruption of pimples in and around your mouth, try using lip gloss with lesser shine.
