Struggling with acne? ☀️
There can be multiple contributing factors including stress, hormones, food choices, genetics, inflammation, sweat, and even your skincare routine. As we head into summer, here are a few helpful lifestyle tips that may support clearer skin from the inside out:
✨ Lifestyle Interventions
• Focus on whole foods
• Limit highly processed foods & seed oils
• Prioritize hydration & protein intake
🧼 Hygiene Tips
• Shower twice daily if sweating frequently
• Use a salicylic acid body wash like CeraVe SA
• Exfoliate gently with a clean scrub brush
• Change sheets & pillowcases weekly
💊 Supplements That May Support Acne-Prone Skin
• Niacinamide – helps reduce inflammation, support the skin barrier, and regulate excess oil production
• Zinc – supports wound healing while helping decrease inflammation and acne-causing bacteria
• Vitamin A – supports skin cell turnover, helps prevent clogged pores, and reduces excess sebum
• Vitamin E – helps reduce oxidative stress and supports skin healing and barrier repair
Remember: acne is often multifactorial, and treating it usually requires a combination approach rather than a single “magic fix.” 🤍
