HOMEOPATHICS TO HEAL ACNE...

Using homeopathic remedies to heal acne in Chico, have proven effective. Especially, for those with digestive, adrenal and or liver imbalances.

The main demographic of my acne clients is college students. Most of which are are under physical AND physiological stress stemming from poor diet, lack of sleep, high work load and, for some, chronic drug and alcohol consumption. 

While homeopathics don't resolve the triggers, when used in combination with other nutritional aids, they can provide support to the organs in need to help clear breakouts.

FACIALS THE DAY BEFORE YOUR BIG DAY...

Getting an acne treatment in Chico, the day before your wedding, comes with a little risk. You want your skin to be glowing & vibrant NOT red & flaky.


The type of skincare treatment you get should reflect that. Skin type also needs to be taken into consideration as microdermabrasion works wonders for some, but is disastrous for others. 


Schedule a consult with your acne specialist to determine what type of acne facial is best suited for YOU!

IS MY CONCEALER PORE CLOGGING...

When it comes to preventing breakouts in Chico, Ca., avoiding concealers makes a difference. 

whether it's green, red, yellow or brown, concealers by nature are comedogenic. This is because they are formulated with waxes, which are steadfast pore cloggers. Try using a non-comedogenic liquid foundation to spot treat & camouflage pimples. 

Your makeup should be clean, meaning no more than 3 to 5 ingredients. All minerals. Speak with an acne specialist at 916SKIN to find out which makeup is best for your acne type.

NON-COMEDOGENIC...REALLY?

over-the-counter acne products in Chico, Ca. and even prescription acne medications often contain pore clogging ingredients. 

For example, buying benzoyl peroxide with pore clogging ingredients is nothing short of oxymoronic, but is unfortunately common practice in the cosmeceutical industry. This is due to lack of regulations on ingredients used in acne skincare products; therefore, manufacturers can market them as non-comedogenic regardless of their ingredients.

ANOTHER BIG MISTAKE...

As a sequel to the previous post, another big mistake my acne peeps make is scrubbing their inflamed pimples. If you're looking for an acne cure, this is definitely NOT the way!


An inflamed pimple is an active pimple that is surrounded by redness. It maybe small or big with a little bit of redness or a lot of redness. Either way, NEVER EVER scrub or rub at this type of acne. Doing so will only exacerbate the redness and the pimple. Your best option is to gently cleanse with your finger tips, ice it & apply your actives.

BIGGEST MISTAKE...

One of the biggest mistakes clients make in the acne treatment program in Chico is running out of their skin care products. They have the best intentions of picking up more, but life gets busy and then 3 days have gone by - and they still haven't picked up their products. 

This is catastrophic in the acne world! In order to get clear and stay clear, you need to do your acne regimen every morning and every night. Skipping, even one day, will cause your skin to back track. Get clear by being consistent!

SPF FOR ACNE SCARS...

Keeping your skin protected from the sun helps prevent the exacerbation of PIH (post inflammatory pigmentation)... AKA: acne scarring in Chico. Although PIH isn't true scarring, most people who battle acne refer to any residual marks on their face as acne scars. 


Sunforgettable by Color Science offers a mineral veil with an SPF 50. The minerals are held in a tube within the brush, making it easy to grab-n-go or carry in your purse. If you're one of those, who doesn't want to reapply sunscreen over your makeup every 2 hours, try this mineral veil for added protection against PIH.

SLEEPING IN YOUR MAKEUP...

If you use makeup approved by an acne specialist in Chico, Ca., then sleeping in your makeup will not clog your pores. The main concern with not removing your makeup, is that you lose an opportunity to apply your evening actives, which, when applied consistently, controls breakouts. 

"Actives" are the acne products in Chico, whose ingredients target and destroy bacteria along with annihilating & dumping dead skin cells. Skipping your actives will cause your skin to back track. You may not notice it right away, but it WILL happen. 

TO FIND OUT WHICH ACTIVES ARE BEST FOR YOUR ACNE TYPE, SEE AN ACNE SPECIALIST.

DO NATURAL OILS CLOG PORES...

Natural oils like coconut oil and coco butter clog pores and are contributors to acne. Treatment for problem skin requires skincare products that are entirely non-comedogenic as well as biweekly acne facials in Chico, Ca.

Even jojoba oil and olive oil are mildly comedogenic, and depending on the formulation, skincare products that contain these ingredients can become major pore cloggers when combined with other comedogenic ingredients.

The best choice is an acne skincare line that is entirely free of ANY pore clogging ingredients.

ALLERGIES & BREAKOUTS...

Acne flare-ups in Chico, Ca. can be due, in part, to pollen and seasonal allergies. Anything that weakens the immune system is a physiological stress on the body, & can thus, trigger breakouts.

Herbs, supplements & teas that boost the immune system such as echinacea, astragalus & golden seal help support this function. This, in combination with biweekly acne treatments & customized skincare products can help keep acne at bay.
