Most people who suffer from acne want to know the causes of acne in order to reduce the acne that they get. Pimples can be caused from a variety of factors both genetically and environmentally. And there are many causes of acne, some of which can be controlled by you, and many that cannot. The important thing to remember is to control the factors that you can, and do everything in your power to reduce the other factors in your environment.
 
Some of the causes of acne that you can control are the products that you put on your skin and your face. Often oil based make up products are used on the skin, and they will clog your pores and can cause blockages that will result in pimples and whiteheads. By using oil free products, you can ensure that your pores will remain clearer. By controlling your diet, you can help your skin stay healthy and clear by ensuring that your diet is full of fresh foods that are nutrient dense. It is also important to drink lots of water, to keep your skin cells healthy and nourished.
 
There are other causes of acne that are not in your control. If your mother or father suffered from acne, you are likely to have problems with your skin as well. Because you cannot control genetics you should do everything that you can to control the factors that you do have power over. Use cleansers that are designed for your skin type and keep your skin clean and free from oils and dirt.
