Acne May Not Be All Bad After All?!

Acne can be a blessing in disguise. Just hear us out!

People who struggle with breakouts think, "It's not fair." They may be correct, but not in the way you think because people who struggle with breakouts may have an advantage. It's called beautiful, glowing skin. You see, all that time you spent being jealous of people who "don't even wash their face and never get a pimple," you wasted your brain power because they missed so many opportunities! Opportunities to get better skin. Those with acne are [not so subtly] nudged to care for their skin. Acne sufferers, it's time to look at what all your hard work has done and realize you are no longer suffering – you are glowing. 

Acne-prone people know you cannot miss a face wash. They also can tell if a product works well for their skin because their experience and education give them the upper hand on great skin. Too often, people without acne go well until their 30s before getting a professional treatment or using high-quality skincare products. That adds up to many missed opportunities. If you have acne in your teens and 20s and treat it with a qualified aesthetician, you are far ahead of the curb! Well done, you! 

 The benefits are not just surface-level, though. When you have acne, you start to really care about not only what goes on your body but also what goes in your body. That may not always be fun, but it is rewarding. Cutting back on inflammatory foods (especially sugar), drinking more water, and adding skin-supporting nutrients and supplements like omega 3 are just a few healthier things acne-prone people do earlier in life than those who don't see breakouts.

Acne can lead you to find a professional to help clear your acne. A professional will keep your glowing skin on course throughout your decades. Professional skincare and treatments can drastically slow down premature signs of aging by keeping the skin as healthy and balanced as possible. Clearing your acne is mainly about education, and that education will serve your skin and overall health well!
