Smoking- Now we all know there are no positive affects on smoking on our body and the same thing applies to our skin. Smoking too much can actually cause our skin to breakout with pimples or acne. It has been proven that acne is much more prevalent in smokers than non smokers therefore you must cut down on your smoking in order to really cure acne.
Hair follicles, which are found all over the skin even where hair doesn't grow, produce a lubricant called sebum. Sebum is what nourishes the skin and keeps is moisturized. The bacteria feed off of sebum which is more abundant in pre-teens, teens and young adults. The body, in an effort to get rid of the bacteria, sends white blood cells to kill off the bacteria, but it is not a foolproof solution. The enzymes released by white blood cells actually damage the wall of the hair follicle which allows the sebum to seep under the skin forming a pimple.
What good is getting rid of a pimple at a time when there is another just waiting to emerge? Instead you need to treat what is causing the acne at its source to prevent the breakouts from occurring.
