A carrot contains a lot of vitamins such as a,b,c and k but also minerals and magnesium. You can eat them raw, stewed (excellent with mustard), in a pudding or as a salad.

Cucumber

A Cucumber is an effective way to prevent pimples. I’m sure you have saw this already in movies a woman with a cucumber mask on her face. Cucumbers contains vitamin a and c.
This may surprise you but they belong to the same family as watermelons. Personally I prefer to eat my cucumber cut in circles with pepper, salt, oil and vinegar.

Salad

Salad contains almost no calories and contains a high water volume. Salad contains a lot of vitamin A and but even more vitamin K and vitamin c. I like to serve my salads with a dressing of course you can try mayonnaise but also very nice is an Italian dressing or a French dressing.

Spinach

Popey the sailesmen eat spinach and he becomes strong in a few moment of course this is only a cartoon. But spinach is good to clean up acne it contains a lot of Vitamin K, A and Iron. Spinach is also a good resource to prevent you from cancer, hart disease and arthritis.

Peppers

Peppers or paprika’s are one of my favourite are one of my favourite vegetables you have them in red, orange, yellow, green ,white and even purple. Did you know that you can find paprika’s in cosmetic aisle such as blush eye shadow. Red and yellow paprika’s contain much more vitamin c than green paprika’s. In fact green paprika’s are immature.

Broccoli

Broccoli is an interesting vegetable to add on the list. Have you read the article written by a CNN journalist in 200: “Broccoli beats most other veggies in health benefits”. Broccoli contains a lot of vitamin c and calcium it’s also a good resource to prevent cataracts.

Garlic

Garlic is not really a vegetable you should eat if you want to kiss somebody. Garlic is an important ingredient when it comes to herbal medicines. There are even people who are putting a garlic juice on their pimples.

As you can see vegetables are very effective not only for a perfect skin or to clean up your acne but also for other things as well. There are a lot of people who don’t like vegetables but I hope you will try them out.

What is baby acne?

Baby acne also known as acne neonatorum is a condition that affect 20% of the newborn babies.
You see red pimples on the cheek in most cases but also on the forehead and chin. It can happen that it shows up directly after birth but in most cases you will see the acne appearing within a few weeks after the birth.
In most cases the acne disappears after three months. If not you should inform a doctor about it! Perhaps you have seen tiny bumps on a newborn baby face if they disappear within a few weeks then it’s not acne but milia, milia is unrelated to baby acne.

What causes baby acne?

There are several factors that can cause acne on the skin of the baby.

* As with adolescent acne, the condition can be caused by a skin irritation
* Medicines can causes baby acne as well
* It’s possible that mineral oil or petroleum can cause baby acne
* The hormones of the mother, As the baby gets older, it loses the mother's hormones and so the baby acne goes away.
* Drugs, taken by the baby or by the mother who is pregnant, can cause baby acne as well

Treatments for baby acne?

- It may surprise you but oil and lotions do not help. What can help is cleaning the face of the baby once a day with water or you can use a baby soap.
Don’t scrub the face of your baby, scrubbing can cause skin irritation.

- Use a product with a vinegar solution make sure you buy a product with all natural ingredients.

- Keep in mind that it is not a good idea to put creams or oils on the face of your baby. This solution can work with teenager or adult acne but it will not help with baby acne.

- If you see that your baby still haves acne after a period of three months than it’s time that you talk with your doctor about this problem.

- Just leave it alone, perhaps you think what a great tip, but most of the times baby acne disappears on his own.

You see baby acne isn’t worse at all. I hope with reading this article you have picked up some tips to cure or prevent the acne of your baby.

And I’m sure you find this the funniest one. You can get ride of acne by having sex or masturbating. Bullshit or not? You will find the answers to your question here in these article. 7 Acne myths and the truth about them.

Myth 1: Will I get acne by eating chocolate and fat food?

Eating chocolate and fat foot can make you fat, very fat and it’s not healthy at all. But acne is not caused by eating chocolate, fat food or sugar. Research and studies found out that acne is not primarily linked to these products

Myth 2: Is washing your face a good way to prevent acne?

You need to wash your face at least twice a day for medical reasons. Acne is not caused by poor hygiene. It may surprise you but don’t believe it. In fact washing your face to often can make your acne worse? I would recommend to wash your face twice a day in the morning in the evening, not more. Don’t forget to past dry it and to use a appropriate acne treatment?

Yes it’s true most people who have or start having acne are in their early teens. But the truth is anyone can get acne. Also your genes plays a roll probably you mother and father or grandparents had acne it’s a change you will get it too. Even babies can get acne.

Myth 4: Does stress causes acne?

However this myth is true you can get acne or more acne if you have stress. Stress is a part of the modern human life so it’s almost impossible to ban it from your life. Try to get a healthy life, a balanced diet and a good night’s rest. And be careful with drugs to prevent stress they can consider acne as well.
