A large part of the world's population suffer from the humiliating and, sometimes, disfiguring condition known as acne. This is a condition that doesn't play favorites. People of all races and ages can be struck with acne. While it does seem to favor adolescents, it can also hit full grown adults with what's called adult acne. Most of the time the cause for acne is placed firmly on hormonal flare ups. Whether this is the basic cause or not, it happens because of blocked hair follicles in the skin. Sebum is oil produced by these follicles, which keeps the skin from drying and stops skin infections. The problem comes when sebum can't drain. When that happens, it collects and causes bacteria.
Due to the various acne treatments on the market currently, people tend to experiment until they find the one that's most effective for them and helps them to get rid of acne fast. Some cases of acne are so serious that a visit to the dermatologist is required to get a prescription for oral medications along with lotions and creams. Many people choose to try natural or home remedies. This is cheaper and more convenient because the majority of the ingredients are already in their kitchen cupboards. The most popular natural acne remedies are lemon juice, lime juice, and honey.
