2. ACNE
Acne, also known as acne vulgaris, is a long-term skin
disease that occurs when hair follicles are clogged with dead
skin cells and oil from the skin.
Most people develop acne the most
common skin condition to some degree, but it primarily
affects teenagers undergoing hormonal changes.

3. What Causes of Acne?
• Acne is primarily a hormonal condition driven by male or ‘androgenic’
hormones, which typically become active during the teenage years.
Sensitivity to such hormones, combined with bacteria on the skin, and
fatty acids within oil glands, cause acne. Common sites for acne are
the face, chest, shoulders, and back -- the sites of oil glands.
• Acne lesions include whiteheads, blackheads, small bumps, and nodules and
cysts.

4. Though acne is essentially a normal physiologic occurrence, certain conditions may
aggravate the condition, including:
• Fluctuating hormone levels around the time of menses
(women)
• Manipulating (picking/prodding) acne lesions
• Clothing (for example, hats and sports helmets) and
headgear

5. Tips for Preventing Acne
1. Keep your face clean. Whether or not you have acne, it's
important to wash your face twice daily to remove impurities,
dead skin cells, and extra oil from your skin's surface.
Washing more often than twice daily is not necessarily
better; it may do more harm than good. Use warm, not hot,
water and a mild facial cleanser. Using a harsh soap (like
deodorant body soap) can hurt the already inflamed skin
and cause more irritation.

6. 2. Moisturize
Many acne products contain ingredients that dry the
skin, so always use a moisturizer that minimizes dryness
and skin peeling. Look for "noncomedogenic" on the
label, which means it should not cause acne. There are
moisturizers made for oily, dry, or combination skin.

7. 3. Try the Acne Product
These acne products don't need a prescription. Most of them
have ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid,
glycolic acid, or lactic acid, which curb bacteria and dry your
skin. They may cause drying or peeling so start with a small
amount at first. Then you can adjust how much you use and
how often. Another option is a new OTC topical retinoid gel. It
works to actually keep the acne from forming. Use these
products with caution if you have sensitive skin.

8. 4. Use makeup sparingly
During a breakout, avoid wearing foundation, powder,
or blush. If you do wear makeup, wash it off at the end
of the day. If possible, choose oil-free cosmetics without
added dyes and chemicals. Choose makeup that is
labeled as "noncomedogenic," meaning it should not
cause acne. Read the ingredients list on the product
label before buying.

9. 5. Watch what you put on your hair
Avoid using fragrances, oils, pomades, or gels on your
hair. If they get on your face, they can block your
skin's pores and irritate your skin. Use a gentle
shampoo and conditioner. Oily hair can add to the oil
on your face, so wash your hair often, especially if
you're breaking out. Got long hair? Keep it pulled
away from your face.

10. 6. Keep your hands off your face
Avoid touching your face or propping your
cheek or chin on your hands. Not only can you
spread bacteria, you can also irritate the
already inflamed facial skin. Never pick or pop
pimples with your fingers, as it can lead to
infection and scarring.

11. 7. Stay out of the sun
The sun's ultraviolet rays can increase inflammation and redness, and
can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark discoloration).
Some acne medications may make your skin more sensitive to sunlight.
Limit your time in the sun, especially between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2
p.m., and wear protective clothing, such as a long-sleeved shirt, pants,
and a broad-brimmed hat. Whether you have pimples or not, always
apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher at least 20
minutes before sun exposure. Look for "noncomedogenic" on the
sunscreen label to make new pimples less likely. Read the ingredients on
the product label to know what you're putting on your skin.

12. 8. Feed your skin
Most experts agree that certain foods, like
chocolate, don't cause pimples. Still, it makes
sense to avoid greasy food and junk food and
add more fresh fruits and vegetables and whole
grains to your diet. Dairy products and foods high
in processed sugar may trigger acne. Avoid
these.

13. 9. Exercise daily
Regular exercise is good for your whole
body, including your skin. When you
exercise, avoid wearing clothing or using
exercise equipment that rubs your skin
and may cause irritation. Shower or bathe
right after exercise.

14. 10. Chill!
Some studies link stress with the severity of
pimples or acne. Ask yourself what's making you
feel stressed. Then look for solutions.

15. Oily Skin
Oils produced by the body keep skin healthy.
Oily skin (seborrhea) is a common cosmetic problem
that occurs when oversized oil glands produce
excessive amounts of oil (sebum) giving the
appearance of shiny and greasy skin. Genes and
hormones play the major role in whether or not you
have oily skin. Excessively oily skin can have
emotional and social impact. Some people experience
low self-esteem, feeling of unattractiveness,
embarrassment, irritation and frustration. Luckily, there
are plenty of ways to cut down on oiliness to make you
feel more confident and comfortable with your skin.

16. What causes of Oily Skin?
Oily skin ruins makeup, clogs pores, and is a pain to deal with. Don't let oily skin keep you down in the dumps.
Fight back by treating the root causes. Here are five common causes for oily skin:
1. Cosmetic Usage
Makeup is a great tool for covering up acne, oil, and breakouts. But what
you put on your face is just as important as how you take it off. When
choosing cosmetics, opt for labels with "oil-free" and "non-comedogenic."
When removing makeup, choose a quality toner to remove leftover gunk
from cosmetic usage.

17. 2. Environment
Excess humidity causes your skin to sweat and
become oily. In humid areas, you can feel the excess
moisture and oil as soon as you walk outside. Be sure
to stay on top of your cleansing rituals to combat
whatever nature throws your way.

18. 3. Diet
We all know that eating right has many benefits. But
from time to time, we may indulge. Be warned however,
for some people, consumption of high glycemic foods
may lead to overactive sebum production.

19. 4. Stress
We live in a stressful world. Our skin tends to overproduce
oil in times of stress. We've got enough on our plates
without having to worry about shine.

20. 5. Age
Skin is in a constant state of change as we age. You
may be experiencing wrinkles and breakouts at the
same time! It's important to find an acne blaster that
doesn't age your skin.

21. Tips for Preventing Oily Skin
1. Use the right water temperature. When you’re washing
your face, use hot water; this will break down the oil more
effectively than cold or warm water is able to. Hot water also
opens your pores, making it easier to clear out the excess
oil. When you finish washing your face, splash it with ice cold
water. This will close up the pores and tighten the skin,
keeping it clear of oil and grime for longer

22. 2. Milk
Milk is an excellent oil-free cleanser that makes your skin soft and
supply once you apply it. It minimizes or reduces the oil and sebum.
Process:
Take two teaspoons of milk and mix it with 4-5 drops of sandalwood
or lavender oil. Apply this at night time after thoroughly washing your
face so that all traces of makeup have been removed. Leave it overnight
or until it has completely dried. Wash it off using normal water.
Alternatively, you can have milk washes several times a day.

23. 3. Lemon Juice
Citrus fruits such as lemons can not only be used as a face wash for oily
skin but they also help refresh your face and skin, when applied. It’s a
great way to rejuvenate, revitalize your skin and get rid of excess oil.
Process:
Take a lemon and extract its juice. Now add equal amounts of water
and apply it using a cotton ball on your face. Let it dry for few minutes
and then rinse off with some warm water followed by cool water. This
will help remove excess oil. Follow it regularly to treat oily skin.

24. 4. Salt
Salt is a natural gift from sea. It acts as a strong desiccant and
removes oiliness and makes your skin dry.
Process:
Fill an empty spray bottle with some tepid water. Now add a
spoon of salt and stir it well. Now close eyes and gently spay
this salt solution on your face. Do this regularly once a day for a
month to get rid of oily skin on face.

25. 5. Use a special facial soap
Some soaps dry out your skin too much, causing your
face to create more oil while others contain ingredients
that clog pores and create more oil as well. Find a facial
soap - bar or liquid, it doesn’t matter - that is made
especially for oily skin. For extremely oily skin, a
detergent facial soap may be considered, but this may be
too harsh and dry out your skin too much.

26. Warts
• A Wart is a growth that develops on the
skin and grows. It can grow inward or
outward, cause a lot of problems, or not
have much of an effect.
• The growth develops when Keratin, on
the top layer of the skin, begins to grow to
fast.
• Warts are often small and the same
color as the skin, but this can vary
depending on type and severity.

27. Filiforms Warts
• Type of Flat Wart.
• Grow around mouth, nose, and beard area.
• Surface is flesh colored and finger shaped.

28. What Causes of Warts?
• The Virus enters the skin after direct contact with recently
shed viruses or by direct contact with an person who is
infected.
• Entry site of the virus is often the approximate area of a
recent injury.

29. • Incubation time can be one to eight months.
• Warts are caused by a virus that infects the skin; most
commonly HPV, or Human Papilloma Virus.
• Warts can grow anywhere on the body, and there are
different kinds.

30. Tips for Preventing Warts
1. Boost Up Your Body Immune System
Warts just like any other viral infections are very prevalent
in people whose immune system is wanting in terms of
immune boosters. For this reason it is acceptable to say that if
you were to adopt balanced diet that has all immunity
enhancing components then you would be able to prevent
yourself from getting infected with warts totally.

31. 2. Stay Sensitive
Always be sensitive of your body. This is one of
the easiest ways to prevent warts. If you notice
certain peculiar grazes on your body, always treat
them early using home remedies since they may
be signs of possible tumours growing on your
body, most probably warts

32. 3. Protect Your Skin
As much as dermatologists insist that Warts are spread
through body contact, the real issue on the ground is that
if your skin is ruptured that’s when your body is highly
predisposed to warts the most. Therefore, the secret to
avoiding contracting warts isn’t necessarily avoiding
physical contact with people (This is utterly impossible),
the trick here is to ensure that your skin is intact, no
ruptures, cuts or bruises.

33. 4. Avoid Biting Your Fingers And Scratching Your
Soles
Physicians have always warned about the susceptibility of people who
bite their fingers to Periungual warts, but most people don’t seem to
take this issue with the seriousness it deserves. Firstly, biting your finger
nails could break your skin tissue thus creating an opening for
secondary infections such as the HPV virus. Secondly, in case you were
infected with warts through contact with an infected person through your
fingers, biting your finger nails could as well facilitate transfer of the
viruses to other regions like your mouth and lips, thus predisposing
yourself to oral warts.

34. 5. Don’t Assume
There is a common confusion between wart and Callus
as well as corns. This is partly because the three
almost resemble each other. However if you assumed
that a Callus condition is a wart you may end up using
excessively lethal methods of curing the callus thinking
its wart.

35. • Avoid touching warts on yourself or others.
• Don't share razors, towels, socks, or shoes with another
person. Someone with no visible warts can still be carrying the
virus.
• Avoid walking barefoot on warm, moist surfaces where the
wart virus may be alive. Wear shower shoes when using
public showers, locker rooms, or pool areas.
• Keep your feet dry. If your feet sweat heavily, wear socks that
absorb moisture or wick it away from the skin.
• Avoid irritating the soles of your feet. Warts grow more easily if
your skin has been injured or broken in some way.
