Acne Facts

Learn the facts about acne:
1) 80 percent of the population suffers from acne.
2) Bacteria is generally the number one cause of acne.
3) There are many different types of acne.
4) Ultraviolet rays are acne contributors, not preventors. Sun rays damage skin, not help it. Although a tan may temporarily mask acne, the sun can make the skin dry and irritated, leading to more breakouts in the future. Always protect your skin by choosing a sunscreen of at least SPF (sun protection factor) 15 that says noncomedogenic or nonacnegenic on the label, which means it won't clog pores.
