Acne, a common skin woe affecting individuals of all ages, can be a challenging adversary. While various treatments exist, the allure of natural solutions is undeniable. In this blog, we'll explore the fundamentals of acne, its types, and delve into five top natural tips for achieving radiant, blemish-free skin with the power of Manuka Biotic products.

Understanding Acne: The Basics

Acne, scientifically known as acne vulgaris, is a skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This often leads to the formation of whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, or cysts. Factors such as hormonal changes, genetics, and lifestyle choices contribute to its development.

Types of Acne

  1. Whiteheads and Blackheads: Non-inflammatory types involving clogged pores.
  2. Papules and Pustules: Inflammatory types characterised by redness and swelling.
  3. Nodules and Cysts: Severe, painful forms that can result in scarring.

3. Balanced Diet and Hydration

Nutrition plays a pivotal role in skin health. Incorporate a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids. Stay hydrated to flush out toxins and maintain skin elasticity. Foods like avocados, berries, and fatty fish can contribute to a healthier complexion.
