Worst food For Acne Prone Skin


I've been battling with acne since I was 10 years old. I got my acne since I was in elementary school, and I got bullied, even from my teacher that told me that I did not wash my face well or I as poor in hygiene (Bad teacher!). Acne was one of my biggest concern in my teenager, as it affects my self-esteem. I tried so many different products and went to see a lot of doctor to treat my acne.

The one turning point for me was when I see a doctor, she did not really give me much of topical creams/cosmetics and only said to me that I need to watch my food. At first, I was skeptical, how can I heal my acne only by watching what I eat?

But after I tried to follow her advice. I notice that food is indeed one of my main triggers for acne. I notice that certain food are really bad for me. So these are the list of worst food for acne prone skin.

[Review] The SAEM See & Saw A.C. Control Patch

I've seen the SAEM counter so many times, but I've never been interested in trying out their product before because I've rarely heard anything about them, plus their counter is always empty - unlike inisfree who always filled with people.

the SAEM is a South Korean cosmetic brand that emphasize their eco-friendly way of producing cosmetics by only using natural and recyclable materials. Despite being a Korean cosmetic brand, their brand isn't as hyped as inisfree, laneige, sulwhasoo, etude, and other korean cosmetic brand that is currently on the rise recently. I tried to search more about this brand, but I found very little review of their products. Even they didn't take care of their official website (I tried to access the official Indonesian SAEM website, but they have very little information about their product, branch, etc.)

Last week, I developed a cystic acne in my left cheek due to eating inappropriately. The acne was big, deep and quite red. So when I visited the SAEM counter, I decided to try out their acne patch called The SAEM See & Saw A.C. Control Patch. The store attendant tried to sell me their Red Solution & Dark Solution, but since I already use Tea Tree Oil, I only bought the patch. I actually have no experience in using acne patch before, so this will be the first.

[Review] Garnier Pure Active Anti Acne White Acne & Oil Clearing Scrub

I was never a fan of Garnier before, because I thought their product has too much chemical. My first Garnier exposure was Garnier White Complete which irritates my skin. But not until my sister bought this Garnier Pure Active Anti Acne White Clearing Scrub, and I decided to try hers and I was surprised on how it clears out my skins. So I decided to buy one my own and replace my cleanser with this.

[Review] The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Review

For an acne prone skin like me, Tea Tree oil is a necessity in my skin-care routine. I used to have tea tree oil from Oriflame, but it has been discontinued (It always irks me how fast Oriflame product get discontinued), so I looked for a replacement and find this Tea Tree Oil from TBS local store. I've been using this oil for a while (since 2013) and I'd like to share my experience with it.

[Review] The Body Shop Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask

I bought this one when I traveled to Surabaya and saw this on promo. I am always triggered with anything that has a "Charcoal" label, and I decided to give it a try. This mask is definitely not in the cheap range, the original price is $28, but I bought this at about $18 on its launch.
