The Sun and Acne
By Acne Free | July 8, 2008
It’s summer, and that means the blazing hot sun will be frying your skin. This is just a quick tip because I’m about to call it a night, but make sure you wear some type of sun screen to protect your skin. Not only will this help with acne, but it can help prevent skin cancer down the road.
I use Lab Series Care For Men Daily Defense Lotion SPF 15.
It’s light and it’s fragrance free.

Most Popular Acne Posts

I was digging through my stats for this blog and noticed that a few of the posts I’ve made account for the lions share of the traffic that comes to this blog. I guess this means that means the search engine gods at Google have deemed this content as “relevant” to what people who type in acne related keywords are looking for.
I also happen to think these are some of the finest posts made to this blog, but I’m somewhat biased 
So in no particular order here’s the top five traffic-getting posts:
- Acne free in 3 days review - This is one of the few truthful reviews of the acne free in 3 days ebook on the internet. Most of the other reviews are sneakily promoting the book with their affiliate link

The Lemonade Diet and Acne
By Acne Free | June 5, 2008
Have you been let down by over the counter and prescription acne products? If you have, and you have an open mind about natural acne remedies you might be able to clear your skin by doing the lemonade diet.
The lemonade diet, or master cleanser diet, is a detox method that flushes out your entire body, not just your colon, or liver, or gall bladder, but your whole body.
And it does it in just 10 days. Not too shabby considering the most popular colon cleansing systems take 2 months and cost a fortune.
Will the lemonade diet clear your skin?
Just like any acne remedy the results vary from person to person , but after speaking to a lot of people who’ve tried the diet it seems to not only clear up acne, but also firm up your skin and improve your overall complexion.
It does other good stuff too.
I was skeptical about the claims being made, and if I hadn’t personally known the people who’ve used the lemonade diet I would have never believed their stories, but in addition to clear skin other benefits include
- weight loss
- reduced appetite (after the 10 days)
- more energy
- stronger immune system
- improved sexual performance
- better overall health
Seems almost too good to be true, and I wouldn’t blame you for writing this off as just anther wacky natural health fad but if you want to give it a shot this Squidoo page tells you how it’s done > lemonade diet
If you do try it I’d love to hear how it goes.
I do know that it’s not easy to do. You have to pretty much drink nothing but some lemonade mixture made from lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and maple syrup. But it’s even half as good as everyone says it seems like a small price to pay.

What Causes Acne
By Acne Free | May 24, 2008
Acne is a condition that requires a consistent skin care regimen to keep it under control, but that doesn’t mean you need to continue applying strong chemical products to your newly healthy skin. The goal is now to keep your skin free from excess oils and replace harsh treatments with a more gentle routine that will maintain the results you have achieved.
Acne is formed due to a buildup of sebum (what we call oil) within the follicles of the skin. When this oil builds up, a small impaction is formed and oxygen can no longer enter the follicle. This allows the propioniumbacterium acnes, which are a cause of acne, to grow, and a lesion develops. This bacterium is anaerobic, which means that it cannot function in the presence of oxygen.
