Out With Pimples And Pigmentation

Question : I’m 38 years old and have four children I have skin
pigmentation, freckles and pimples on my face What are the
causes and how do I get rid of them?
Answer : Acne or pimples is a skin disorder caused by
inflammation of the hair follicles and the sebaceous glands in
the skin Sebum (oily substance secreted by sebaceous glands)
trapped in hair follicles encourages bacteria present on the
skin to multiply easily, leading to inflammation, and causing
pimples break out Pigmentation, on the other hand, may be due
to over-exposure to the sun, medications and hormonal changes
It may be worsened by poor liver condition as this organ is
mainly involved in eliminating toxins Firstly, ensure adequate
intake of fresh fruits and vegetables Bright coloured fruits
and green leafy vegetables such as carrot, tomatoes, beetroot
and spinach are rich in beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A) Drink at
least six to eight glasses of water daily Essential fatty acids
(EFAs) are needed for the formation of the lipid layer of the
skin This helps improve the smoothness and softness of the skin
and may be beneficial for those with hormone imbalance Evening
primrose oil is a rich source of the omega-6 fatty acids Milk
Thistle is a liver tonic It helps to optimise the function of
the liver which is vital in detoxifying the body The diuretic
action of dandelion improves the body’s elimination system In
combination, these herbs aid in cleansing the body of toxins
You should wash your face with a cleanser formulated with tea
tree oil, St John’s Wort and calendula Tea tree oil has
remarkable antiseptic properties while St John’s Wort and
calendula are soothing for the skin This combination cleanses
deep into the skin and controls oily complexion problems It
also soothes and brings down inflammation
