Eat a shitload of flaxseed and soy products will increase the amount of phytoestrogens in your body.
Testosterone spikes when you eat cholesterol, saturated fat and refined carbohydrates.
You can avoid this by cutting out most bread, pastas, red meats and foods high in saturated fat, like fast food and all dairy.

The body has only so many hormone receptors, by reducing the amount of test, you'll be more receptive to the effects of soy.

Your pedestrian and ubiquitous advice isn't as helpful as you think. Cleanliness is only tangentially related and exposure to sun is an old wive's tale. Only the mildest of cases can be cured solely by lifestyle changes, whereas moderate acne will almost always need topical treatments and the worst, nodular acne, usually needs even more treatment to cure/manage.

>>10943895
I didn't say that there is nothing that can be done to combat acne when you have it, just that more washing won't help.

Are you seriously going to deny that people without acne are just not genetically prone to it? Do you think everybody with clean skin would get acne if they stopped washing their face for a few days and if they touched their face a lot? You think everybody with clean skin sleeps on a towel every night and washes their face every morning? I known a lot of dirty ass people who never had a single zit or blemish on their skin despite being stoners with more than questionable personal hygiene.

Only people with oily skin benefit from good skincare, in terms of preventing zits. That's not the same as acne though. People with fair skin just don't get regular zits because they don't have oily skin, but they can get actual real acne like in OPs picture, which washing won't do a fucking thing about.

Look i'm about to explain why you're the biggest fucking idiot on the planet, but it's not your fault.

Your body has multiple detoxification organs. Primarily the Kidneys, the Liver, and, you guessed it, the SKIN.

Acne is not an external problem. Very rarely is it a bacterial issue on the surface of the skin. Acne is a symptom that the other detox organs are overloaded and thusly your body is purging through it's last line of defense, the skin.

>Acne is not an external problem. Very rarely is it a bacterial issue on the surface of the skin.

this.

p.acnes feed on sebum causing the inflamed spot to occur after the pore has already been blocked. p.acnes bacteria doesn't cause the pores to be blocked in the first place, trying to control the bacteria is pointless because it's not the root cause. the root cause is internal. when you solve the internal issue, the pores don't get blocked and p.acnes don't feed on the sebum therefore no inflamed spot/cyst occurs.

In my case, sugar and milk seem to be the main antagonists. It seems to be genetic and if you're lucky it goes away with age. Washing your face / pillowcases / not touching your face all have very minor benefits, if any.

>>10944059
A water fast would certainly be beneficial. It was a long process because it took years of being raised wrong with a shitty diet, you can't correct that overnight.

A lot of what I did was this: take herbs that detox the liver, like milk thistle, and the lymphatic system, like burdock. I removed inflammatory foods such as meat and dairy. I know a lot don't want to hear that but it's necessary with how awful those are on the body. I also don't drink anything but water and tea. Exercise frequently. My kidneys still need work but overall i'm in good shape.

>>10944109
It's definitely very individualized to the person and what the state of their organs looks like.

The gut also plays a role into it so they may have liver or kidney failure but the gut is still working. I know for me my biggest problem was my stomach and my lymphatic system which meant changing diet was huge.

Also my point about genetics is that it's not some elusive "oh it's your fixed dna so theres nothing you can do except wash your face and wait until your older". The health condition of your parents has an impact on your health, but through healing you can fix that.

>>10944126
I was not making the point that there's nothing you can do because lol genetics. I was making two points, or at least trying to and apparently failing because nobody seems to have understood me.

1. Whether or not you will be afflicted by acne is genetic. There is no specific thing that people without acne do that causes them not to have acne.They just never get it because they are not genetically predisposed to it. If they live unhealthy lives they might get other health problems but acne won't be one of them. That just seems blatantly obvious to me from observation.

2. Washing more won't cure acne. That's fucking retard. Specific foods can worsen or lighten acne in some people who are affected by it but the same thing won't work for everybody. Otherwise there wouldn't be so many different opinions on what to eat and what not to eat. If it would be the same for everybody, there would be agreement. Which isn't the case.

I see your points and I think you're close to the mark but still off.

1. It MAY be genetic as I explained above pertaining the choices and health consequences of the parents, but it very much could be related to choices of the individual. If a kid is raised eating fast food, soda, processed garbage etc they will most likely get acne through adolescence. People who don't get acne are either making good health decisions or their detox organs haven't fully broken down yet if they aren't. There isn't an acne gene that one is predisposed to. It's a consequence of one's choices.

2. I agree washing won't cure it, but I do believe there is a specific diet that will cure it. The industry promotes misinformation in order to get people to go to their dermatologist where they get put on all sorts of pharmaceuticals. This is an age old model with all sorts of diseases, it's nothing new.

Utter nonsense.
When I was a teenager I ate a lot of fatty meats and a lot of dairy, things that "the internet" often say are responsible for acne. I had very little just as I went through puberty and then it stopped. I made no effort to adjust my diet or use special cleaning regimens, etc. It just went away on its own. Meanwhile friends of mine who had very clean diets sometimes had far worse problems.

Genetics may not explain all of it, but it's a fucking huge factor.

This is just nonsense. Virtually every teenager aside from a few weirdos lives on soda, candy and fast food. Then there are also 400 pound behemoths without acne. Why doesn't every morbidly obese person have severe acne? Those people should be the most "toxified" of all with unhealthy gut flora to boot. Yet they rarely if ever sport acne, even when the flesh and skin is rotting off their bloated limbs. Don't you think those people would all have acne if your theory wasn't complete bullshit?

If you get a tan, at all, it's from excess exposure. The tanning response only comes AFTER you've inflicted damage. Any amount of sun exposure that causes a tanning response (which is a couple minutes for wypipo) increases your lifetime cancer risk and causes premature aging.

I on the other hand have experimented with eating like a complete puritanical vegan for an extended period and had literally zero change.

In my opinion, effects of diet on acne are HIGHLY overstated. As long as the grease from your shitty food isn't getting onto your skin, you can eat whatever garbage you want and it will have negligible impact on your complexion.

Go to a good dermatologist to find out.

Greasy face is either your face is oily genetically, it your skin is dehydrated and producing more oil than it needs to.
Changing or putting a towel on your pillow would not actually help him at all.

Stop making excuses. Yes there are those who go their whole life without acne, yes there are those that struggle more, but there is not a single person who cannot fix it all by staying hygienic.

It isn't magic, there is no magic, magic doesn't exist, you just have to keep working on it for weeks even months.

>If you look at the causes of acne:
>hormonal changes
>poor diet – too much of the wrong types of fat and sugar
>stress
>incorrect skin care
>inefficient liver

>The liver processes hormones, fats and toxins. If the liver lacks sufficient levels of ‘coenzyme A’ (a fat metabolizing coenzyme), the body recirculates fat in the blood, which may then be secreted through the skin via the sebaceous glands. This oil (which causes greasy skin and the shiny scalp effect common in balding men) is known as ‘sebum’ and is thought to be a major cause of acne. In fact the evidence is so strong, that in a study, simply increasing coenzyme A levels in the body was shown to have a massive positive impact on acne, simply because skin sebum levels were reduced.

Excess sugar can be a major culprit.
>Triglycerides are fats from the food we eat that are carried in the blood. Most of the fats we eat, including butter, margarines and oils, are in triglyceride form. Excess calories, alcohol or sugar in the body turn into triglycerides and are stored in fat cells throughout the body.

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1346-8138.12761
>Acne patients frequently associated with abnormal plasma lipid profile

>TG (triglycerides) in male patients with severe and moderate acne was significantly higher than in the healthy control group (P < 0.05)

>Highly elevated triglyceride levels may also cause fatty liver disease and pancreatitis. High triglyceride levels can also be associated with diabetes, kidney disease, and the use of some medications. Normal triglyceride levels in the blood are less than 150 mg per deciliter (mg/dL).

unironically wheat products. Even the tiniest amount can cause a flare up, it took me years of being a pizza face before I realized that's what was causing the bulk of my skin issues. Certain types of dairy products seem to degrade the overall appearance of my skin, but I haven't noticed them causing anything more than maybe a mild breakout here or there but that's only if I go on a binge of ice cream, cheese and other milk derived products for several days in a row.

Don’t have acne (blackheads, sure) but boils run in my family. My ass looks like Bukowski’s face. Any fatty foods or excess sweat not immediately washed well will result in boils on my ass, thighs, crotch, armpits, or chest. Mayonnaise is the biggest culprit for me. I’m thankful not to have acne where people can see it on my face, but enormous boils are horrifying and so painful they can affect my ability to walk or sit. If you’ve never had one, thank god every night before bed. There’s a reason they were part of Job’s “test” in the Bible, along with losing his livelihood and family. One of the most embarrassing moments of my life I had my roommate lance a boil on my ass and I cried like a bitch.

not him but you would have less of an issue despite your hormonal cycle if you ate a natural diet and eliminated processed foods
the hormones just get the foot in the door for acne, the food you eat completely opens the door, there is a reason why hunter gatherer societies like the Inuit and various African tribal societies don't have acne despite having the same hormones, and overall genetic makeup as westerners.

What, Ethiopia and places inhabited by Muslims and Arabs who came there in 600AD more than ethnic African tribes? Even in decent cities like Nairobi, Kenya their diet is extremely meat heavy.

I was so desperate because I was being bullied by other girls for my acne that I actually went vegan for quite a while. Dropped most sugar. Did multiple types of face wash treatments 3x a day. Worked with a dermatologist for 2 years with all sorts of prescription creams and face washes.

Finally broke down and went on Accutane. I haven't had a breakout since, although when Aunt Flo visits I'll get a couple of small pimples on one cheek. I still wash my face twice a day and eat as healthy as possible.

You made some decent points in your other post but this is just bizarre. Unless you have actual painful constipation you should not force yourself to shit more often than what comes naturally.
And if you get some decent food, plenty of water, and a little exercise that should be enough to keep you regular unless you're 70+

Definitely seconding the safety razor. Not just because it's a nice smooth shave, and you can turn it onto some "me time" if you do the whole brush/lather thing and take your time with it, but also because it's much much cheaper than that bullshit Gillette are selling.

ACTUAL ANSWER
Look up the term "comedogenic" and see what your current products rank on the scale.
With my acne I can't do anything further about it, since it's hormonally caused. every month I break out in the few days before my period, it takes a week or two to heal up, and then my skin is clear until the next cycle. Men have it so easy. Some causes you can fix, some you can't. I've been on many different diets and lifestyles over my life and there was never any change.

This man is correct. Exposure to sun worsens acne and impedes healing and color normalization. Sun a shit.

I'm a guy and my acne comes in cycles too, it's no different as a guy. It's not totally clear ever though. Normally I get really terrible (although better now than it was in High school) acne for 3-4 weeks and then it goes down to one active pimple a day for a month or two if I'm lucky then back to the 3-4 week bad period over and over again. It's mostly just about trying to clear up scarring now. No diet changes have ever helped me, I've cut out dairy, sugar, red meat etc. and nothing affects it. The only thing that's ever made a difference is benzoyl peroxide and differin.
