At one time or another we have all had zits, pimples, blackheads, whiteheads or just random acne in general.
We have all suffered the social stigma brought by such unsightly blemishes as well.
A little prevention will go much further than much much much more maintenance.
That being said performing maintenance is required in order to win the war on acne.
First you absolutely must wash your hands often and with anti bacterial soaps.
Do not touch the sensitive areas that are prone to breakout of acne as well.
A good first step is to keep some of the hand sanitizer on you or around where you spend most of your day, even in your car or at your desk.
Nightly you should deep cleanse and exfoliate and then apply a creme or gel which is antibacterial in nature.
Make sure to not take to much of a hot shower as this can cause an excess of secretion of oils and fats, and dirt which can again clog your pores and cause acne.
Some of us are predisposed genetically to having acne very severely.
If none of this has made a difference for you then you will most certainly need the assistance of a professional.
They will be able to inspect and give proper advice about a possible severe medical condition related to acne.
Hopefully though just some normal easy and inexpensive ways to prevent acne will work and you can go on about your day, week month and year not thinking about how to get rid of zits or acne ever again!
