What Causes Acne?

Acne is a complex condition that is caused by a combination of factors. While excess oil production and clogged pores are the main culprits, several other factors can contribute to the development of acne. Let’s break down the key causes of acne:

Excess Oil Production

The sebaceous glands in your skin produce oil, or sebum, to protect and hydrate your skin. However, when the body produces too much oil, it can mix with dead skin cells, clogging the pores and leading to acne. Excess oil is a significant factor in hormonal acne, which often appears on the face, chest, and back.

Clogged Pores

Clogged pores are a result of excess oil, dead skin cells, and sometimes bacteria. When your pores are blocked, they can turn into blackheads or pimples. Acne Commander’s Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser is designed to cleanse the skin deeply, removing impurities and preventing clogged pores from forming.

Bacteria and Inflammation

The bacteria Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) naturally live on the skin. When pores are clogged, these bacteria can multiply, leading to inflammation, infection, and acne lesions. This is why it’s important to use products that help control bacteria while preventing excess oil buildup.

Hormonal Changes

Fluctuations in hormones can trigger the sebaceous glands to produce more oil. This is common during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, or stress. Hormonal acne typically appears on the lower face, chin, and jawline, but it can occur anywhere on the body. Acne Commander’s Active Broad Spectrum SPF50+ Sunscreen helps protect your skin from sun exposure, which can worsen hormonal acne and cause scarring.

Diet and Lifestyle Factors

Diet and lifestyle play a role in acne development. Foods high in refined sugars, dairy products, and greasy foods can trigger acne flare-ups in some people. Maintaining a healthy diet, staying hydrated, and avoiding these triggers can help reduce the occurrence of acne. Products like Beorht Ultra Clarifying Age Renewing Serum are designed to balance oil production and promote healthy skin renewal, helping to prevent acne from worsening.

How to Prevent Acne: Effective Tips and Acne Commander’s Solutions

While acne cannot always be completely prevented, there are several steps you can take to minimize breakouts and maintain clear skin:

Consistent Skincare Routine

The key to preventing acne is consistency. Start with a gentle cleanser that removes dirt, oil, and impurities. Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser is perfect for acne-prone skin, as it contains salicylic acid and lactic acid, which help to gently exfoliate, cleanse, and maintain a balanced pH level. Cleansing your skin twice daily helps remove buildup and reduces the risk of clogged pores.

Use Non-Comedogenic Products

Non-comedogenic products are formulated to prevent pore blockages. All Acne Commander products are non-comedogenic, making them suitable for acne-prone skin. Our Beorht Moisturiser for Acne-Prone Skin is designed to hydrate your skin without clogging your pores, while also reducing inflammation and controlling oil.

Sun Protection

Sunscreen is crucial in protecting your skin from harmful UV rays. Acne treatments can make the skin more sensitive to the sun, which can worsen acne scars. Acne Commander’s Active Broad Spectrum SPF50+ Sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection, preventing sunburn and further damage to acne-prone skin.

Exfoliate Regularly

Exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote cell turnover. Acne Commander’s Exfoliating Body Spray is formulated with niacinamide and aloe vera, which soothe the skin while gently exfoliating. This helps prevent acne on the body, including back acne and butt acne.

Hydrate Your Skin

Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for acne prevention. Dry skin can trigger oil production, leading to more breakouts. Beorht Moisturiser for Acne-Prone Skin hydrates without clogging pores, balancing oil production, and promoting healthy skin renewal.

Manage Stress

Stress triggers the release of cortisol, a hormone that can stimulate sebaceous glands to produce more oil. Incorporating stress management techniques such as exercise, yoga, or meditation into your routine can help reduce acne flare-ups.
