Skin Products

I want to know if the AHAVA line of products actually helps acne or not.

Hello,
Acne is due to an overactivity and plugging of the oil glands.
Just keep you face clean by washing with a mild soap atleast twice a day.Pat it dry and do not rub it.Avoid picking or pressing the acne.You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face. If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often.Creams containing AHA can also be used.

Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep us posted on how you are doing.
