      Spearmint Tea - reduces androgens thus helping to regulate hormones. Generally helps with adult acne and many cystic acne. 1 or 2 bags a throughout the day. BE CAREFUL of how much you drink, because it is tough on your kidneys. Highly recommend you research this before drinking too much.

    Key Takeaways:
    00:00 - Focus on improving internal health to address acne root causes, including minimizing inflammation and hormonal imbalance through diet, sleep, and stress management.
    05:01 - Avoid high glycemic foods, dairy, and processed snacks; opt for fruits, vegetables, and natural, unprocessed foods. Consider making smoothies for convenience and nutrition.
    08:12 - Incorporate green tea into your daily routine for its rich antioxidants, which can promote healthier skin and reduce oxidative stress.
    09:37 - Consider vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) supplements as a potential acne treatment, as it aids in skin moisture retention, barrier repair, and toxin prevention.
    11:27 - Manage stress and prioritize sleep to regulate hormone levels, reduce inflammation, and support overall skin health.
    13:17 - Maintain skin hygiene by keeping tools clean, showering before bed, and minimizing face touching to prevent bacteria transfer and skin irritation.
    14:22 - Reduce makeup usage, especially during acne flare-ups, and take advantage of hormonal cycles to transition to wearing less makeup.
    16:41 - Avoid popping zits, but if necessary, only pop ripe ones using sterilized tools and cover with spot patches to aid healing and prevent infection.

    Using Tretinoin is like going to the gym, at first it will feel like hell, but baby the results overtime will be insane.

    • @kyucumber6319
      @kyucumber6319  Před 3 měsíci +85

      I definitely agree with all the benefits of Tretinoin which I actually tried 2 times.
      I saw a great result in the first round but after a year, my acne started to come back despite of continued usage, so I decided to stop using it.
      The 2nd time I was on, it just didn't seem to work on reducing my acne while the purge and extreme dryness / irritation continued for several months.
      So I think it can also just come down to your internal health issues. Instead of using prescribed Tret, I now occasionally use L'Oreal 0.3% Pure Retinol Night Serum, which still has high potency of Retinol but with other soothing ingredients, it didn't cause any purge and I find it much easier on my skin. Plus, it's an over the counter product which I find much easier to access.

So maybe try to optimize other things you can control as much as you can and hopefully that will also positively affect your energy level and stress!

    I suffer from acne around 8 years. It was a painful journey.
    I start consuming a mixed of fermented foods (natto, miso, and kimchi) because they are easy and affordable to find in Japan.
    My coworkers, Japanese moms, mentioned me about combining fermented foods in their diet and how it's a game changer for their skin.
    I consume them just once daily in the afternoon (when I am not drinking coffee/tea 1 hour before to maximize the nutrient absorption).
    It has been a month, and I am super happy to see the difference.
    Korean skincare also a game changer for me, but I find the progress is slower compared to a gut healing method with foods.
    I admire your content and natural remedies you mentioned - I will add them too to my routine!

    i've had pretty bad acne from puberty, ~11yo, to adulthood, ~30. I almost never wore make up, i didn't start drinking only half a cup of milk daily until ~25. I never regularly ate fast food, but I eat sweets that also contain milk regularly, was stressed and didn't get at least 8hrs of sleep per night most of the time throughout my academic years (middle school to grad school), didn't drink enough water, didn't clean linens regularly and used to pop my acne and touch my face with my fingers.
    I haven't really tried any medication until recent years. I have tried reducing sugar, dairy sweets and caffine intake and drinking more water. I'm washing my linens regularly now and not touching my face. I can't do anything about stress or sleep because of school and work. I have tried retinoid topicals and oral antibiotic which didn't make a significant difference. I'm using the OTC Differin gel and oral birth control now. I have to say, reducing sugar and dairy sweets didn't do anything significant, but avoiding caffeine did, which is why i'm hesitant to drink tea. I now mostly drink decaffeinated coffee with half a cup of milk only once a day. Also didn't notice any significant difference from washing linen, not touching my face or mornings after i get enough sleep.
    The only thing that significantly helped with my acne were reducing caffeine, Differin gel and oral birth control, and with no side effects that i'm aware of. Differin is made of adapalene, which is an alternative form of retinoid. The oral birth control reduces testosterone, which is a major hormone that causes acne. Spironolactone is another medication that reduces testosterone and is often used for severe cystic acne. I still have white/black heads and sebaceous filaments, but very few red comedones or cycsts. I have started wearing make up more frequently, ~2 times per week, and haven't noticed my acne getting any worse.
    Reducing sugar, and eating more fresh vegetables and fruits have major benefits in health overall, so i'm still doing that regardless of how little effect they have on my acne.
    My conclusion is that, good diet, hygiene, sleep and destress are great and should be done for the overall health, but when it comes to reducing acne, it varies by person. Same with medication, because everyone's cause of acne is different, they should use medication that treats the cause and not just any medication. Everyone also tolerates the side effects of medication differently, so you do have to try around before finding one that works best for you.

    Thank you for this video. I have a very similar story to your acne journey. I have taken accutane twice, and by round 2 I felt terrible. While it did clear my acne, I felt anxious and less motivated in life. I decided to stop taking it near the end of the second round. I instantly felt better, but my skin was returning to it’s original state of acne. Although it wasn’t cystic acne like before it was still acne. I recently made the change of switching my diet and drinking more water, and I am seeing results. This video encouraged me to keep going and realize that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

    Reducing diary helped me a lot to clear my acne! I went on this self diet avoiding sugar COMPLETELY but consuming about 2 big glass of fullfat milk daily. Little did i know that i was gonna be bombarded with the painful cystic acne all my cheeks. Worse than that i decided to continue the diet for 2 weeks, the acne got worse and worse. Knowing diary consumption was the root cause, i stopped it completely. And my skin cleared up pretty much though I've some dark spots left, but it's slowly fading away too. Note that i did not eat any kind of sugar or processed foods during the period. It was diary all along!

I knew I never wanted to go on accutane because I prefer a more holstic approach than traditional western skincare, no shade to it. After a while of stressing out over what is the best posible thing I can use for not just my acne, but my overal hormonal health. After all the over exfoliating with salicylic acid and not enough sunscreen.. I finally discovered Korean skincare!! and really dove into that, I started focusing more on hydration and anti-inflammatory ingredients and BOY did that make a difference.. I only started seeing real results at the end of 2023.. but after a year of gradually focusing on hydrating and moisturizing over exfoliation I have seen AMAZING results. I barely break out now and when I do they are small, and I also found that proper hydration really helps with my PIE!!!

I dont use much actual Korean branded skincare, I more or less use the philosphy of focusing on hydration over exfoliation.

    I struggled with regular acne outbreaks from my 20s until late 30s, always leaving horrible scars.
    I tried almost every anti-acne product on the market, but with little results.. furthermore, I wasted so much money..
    Only when I started to simplify my skincare, my outbreaks finally stopped. These days I only use carrot oil, vitamin C, a retinol cream and sunscreen (Japanese brands without perfume). Since i have started to stick to this simple skincare routine, my skin / skin barrier fully recovered, and I rarely get any pimples.

    I do agree healthy foods do improve our skin a lot. Other than benefiting the skin, something i do notice after consistently eating healthy well balanced meals is my overall health and mental health improved tremendously. I am quite shocked at how positive my emotions were the whole month i ate healthily (i usually was quite depressed like 10 days before my period starts due to hormonal change). And also, my period usually has a lot of dark big blood clots but that month, my period was like pure fresh bloods. Period pain was also lessened by a lot. I am truly impressed how well balanced meals impact my body. I don't take any suppliment that whole month too other than vitamin c which i started taking many years ago everyday.

    Okay taking shower every night is kinda not convenient for many people I agree with the rest of the info. When my hair are contributing in breakouts it usually break outs the side buns or the forehead. I changed so many shampoos until I found the one that doesnot breaks my skin out. I would say that herbal ones are the best. Avoid chemical shampoos as much as possible. Also still not letting your hair touch your face as a preventative measure wouldn’t be bad. Also sleeping straight and not touching the bed or comforter is the best!

Also my skin was at its peak literally glowing when i cut down sugars for a month, but then school air infected me after summer break lmfao. anyways at that time i realized acne is no longer my problem, i had learned how to fix it, now i mostly have clear skin and even if i get some pimples, i don't stress over it. all i have to do is eat good and keep my skin clean..... (p.s. before tretinoin i gave benzoyl peroxide a chance too and it didn't work.... so really everyone DO have different skins, its really a trial and error method to find out what works for you)

    Honestly, following the diet advice in tip 1 is 90% of the work. You definitely, don't need to take B5 (long term taking high dose of just one B-vitamin may cause deficiency in other B-vitamins), my advice: swap it for a regular multi-vitamin. The not touching your face and swapping towels every other day in tip 2 is excessive. Like, if your skin can't handle dirt, then your skin barrier is extremely compromised. Our skin is our largest protective organ. It should be able to handle dirty fingers. I've suffered from acne since age 11, it's now completely clear and I touch it A LOT and only swap pillowcases and towels once a week.

I do not smoke (obviously I dont drink alcohol as well as softdrinks) and Ive been very conscious to what i eat bcoz of hyperacidity. Hepa screening results are non-reactive as well. My Physician told me that it cud be due to high dose of Vit B5, but there is no direct correlation. I searched it online then I saw that one side effect of it is increased ALT. That convinced me to stop taking it.

    • @mkblitzgameplay4605

BTW, Ill undergo another Blood Chem and Abdominal Ultrasound in the last week of April. I might take VitB5 again but under strict monitoring and only if my SGPT/ALT falls within the normal range again. If it wasnt for acne fighting effect of VitB5, Ill wud not consider taking it anew.

      I would never say Benzoyl Peroxide is a bad treatment option. I heard it works wonders to many people with acne. However, many times I tried it, I realized it wasn’t for me due to skin irritation and how it seemingly combined small surface pimples into big cyst acne deep in my skin. Not sure how this seems to happen but my uneducated guess is it might be suppressing small pimples until they develop into bigger cysts. But I need to do more research to be able to confirm this theory 🙃
