Acne: Let’s Break it Down:

Acne is like that uninvited guest who shows up at the most inconvenient times. It’s that cluster of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and all those unwanted bumps that can make us feel self-conscious. But fear not! Understanding acne is the first step toward conquering it.

What’s Causing These Breakouts?

So, what’s the deal with acne? Well, there are a few culprits behind those blemishes:

  1. Oil Overload: Our skin has these little glands called sebaceous glands that love producing sebum (oil). Sometimes, they go into overdrive, resulting in clogged pores -and acne!
  2. Bacteria: Loves to cause acne and so an effective skincare routine is a must to keep the germs at bay.
  3. Hormones, Hormones, Hormones: Ah, hormones—the reason behind so many things in life! During puberty, hormonal changes can go a bit haywire, and unfortunately, they can contribute to acne too.
  4. Genes: Yep, sometimes we can thank our family for the presence of acne. If it runs in the family, unfortunately it may increase the likelihood of dealing with those unwanted breakouts.
  5. Lifestyle Choices: What we eat and how we take care of our skin matters. Certain foods, stress, lack of sleep, and poor skincare habits can aggravate acne and make it harder to bid farewell to those blemishes.

Banishing Acne: Our Battle Plan:

Now that we know the enemy, it’s time to put up a fight! Here are some weapons in our skincare arsenal to help us conquer acne:

  1. Skincare Routine: Start with a gentle cleanser to keep your skin clean without stripping away all its natural moisture. Look for non-comedogenic moisturisers that won’t clog your pores. And, of course, introduce acne-fighting superheroes like products containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
  2. Healthy Eating Habits: Remember, you are what you eat! Load up on fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. You can download our healthy habits guide here.
  3. Hands Off – Picking and popping those pimples may feel satisfying in the moment, but it can lead to more inflammation, scarring, and a longer healing process. Resist the urge!

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
