Even though Harry Potter’s magic wand could not cure acne breakout he and co-stars Rupert Grint, (Ron Weasley) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), are experiencing, their special effects man could. According to a leak posted by Thomas Crosbie Media, producers for Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire had to “employ a special effects man to go through every frame clearing up their complexions."If you can’t afford a camera magician to clear up your acne, rest assured that using five steps below can magically transform your fantasies of clear skin into a reality.
Step One: Reduce excess oil secretion:
Vitamin A helps reduce secretion of oil by oil glands. Foods that supply body with Vitamin A and beta-carotene (which is converted to vitamin A by body) include: Liver, oily fish, whole eggs, carrots, sweet potatoes, and broccoli.
Step Two: Encourage extreme shedding of skin:
Using a peel is easiest method to promote shedding of skin. Exfoliation releases build-up of dead skin cells, oils and bacteria trapped in pores, which could lead to formation of blemishes.
Extreme peels Peels come in varying degrees, from mild to harsh. The trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel is an extreme peel that can cost from $100 to $1000 depending on degree of treatment. It is only performed in a doctor’s office. The TCA is not a save all however. The peel can make skin sensitive to sun cause hyper-pigmentation.
Home use peels Several over-the-counter peels contain papaya enzymes or glycolic acid. These peels lightly exfoliate skin and are safe for weekly use.
