One of the most frustrating and embarrassing skin conditions
faced by nearly every teen, and many adults, is Acne. This
condition is caused by pores in the skin becoming clogged, and
the skin's natural oils becoming trapped. The pores usually clog
up due to skin cells shedding too quickly, and then blocking the
oils in the skin from draining properly. Then bacteria trapped
in the skin begins to grow, and whiteheads, blackheads or other
lesions form.
