Acne can be debilitating, embarrassing, and can cause real psychological & physical, scars that stay for a long time. While acne can be caused by hormonal changes, harsh skin care products and dermatologist prescriptions can only go so far. In order to really treat acne, we strongly believe you must get your entire house in order. It takes a commitment to proper eating habits, a nurturing skin care program, and less use of harsh products that dry out your skin. Why are we telling you this? After all, we are in the business of selling prestige-organic skin care products and not skin care/diet advice. To be perfectly honest, we want to build a community where we help each other achieve beautiful-youthful skin. We do that with our products because we know that Belinda Organics works. However, there’s only so much a skin care product can do so we ask that you do not discount the possibility that what you are putting in your mouth could be having an effect on your skin. Change the way you take care of your skin, and watch how quickly your acne will clear up.
Rosacea is a medical condition that has no cure, but its symptoms of redness and acne can be effectively treated. Many cases of rosacea are misdiagnosed. Quite often redness is your skin's way of telling you it is being treated too harshly. Stopping the strong medications, the aggressive anti-aging treatments and the products designed to dry up blemishes should stop the redness and breakouts. Even if you do have an actual case of rosacea, Belinda Organics is an excellent choice of skin care for you to reduce redness and clear up acne.

1)Stop using drying products because in an attempt to rid your skin of redness, blemishes, and excess oil, you have most likely “dried it out.” You might also have used Retin-A or strong rosacea prescriptions; all of these dry out the skin, causing it to redden and creating a dry surface. Sensing the dryness that has been imposed on it, your skin produces more oil to compensate and soothe itself. The oil can’t flow through the hard surface so it gets trapped underneath, where it hardens and clogs your pores. As a result, bacteria thrives in this environment causing blemishes and acne cysts.

2)Stop using oil-free products because they eventually make your skin more oily. Oil-free products tend to be water-based which means that they quickly evaporate completely from your skin, drying out the surface and leaving it unprotected. As a result, a vicious cycle follows. On the other hand, if you use a gentle cleanser so as not to strip the skin, and then follow up with our facial oil that soothes and calms your over-active oil glands, your skin will no longer feel the need to work overtime. Belinda Organics treats acne and redness not by drying the skin, but by gently cleansing and healing it. Thousands of women and men have used the Belinda Organics skin care line and found the redness and acne gone.

3)Follow a basic skin care regimen (using products specifically made for problem skin) consisting of three steps i) cleansing, ii) toning, iii) treatment and moisturizing. Be diligent about exfoliating with a non-abrasive gel or peel, plus a clay mask. Whenever there are problems with the skin, exfoliating and masking should be done at least twice a week.

4)If you are using foundation, be warned as this contributes to the same problems you are covering. Foundation seeps into your pores, after all, it is just sitting there all day. As a result, your skin becomes congested and your pores get enlarged causing problems and possibly introducing bacteria. Give up the cover ups, you’ll see results much faster, and never need them again.
