The 3 sin of Natural Acne Cure
By: Sharon S S | Posted: 31st July 2007
Curing acne naturally is difficult.
And you can make it downright impossible, if you commit any of the cardinal sins.
When it comes to curing acne naturally the cardinal sins are: going to acne forums for advice, not thinking holistically and instant gratification.
Going to acne forums for advice
Let me tell you a cooking story. Mary, John and Mike set to make mashed potatoes.
Mary has some cooking experience so she got it close. She just forgot to add salt. As typical bachelors Mike and John never ventured beyond microwave and have no cooking experience. Mike forgets the whole thing on the stove and burns it. John confuses potatoes with radishes.
As you can imagine none of the three mashed potatoes taste good. Then Mary learns that adding salt often makes dishes taste better. And like magic her mashed potatoes taste good.
She excitedly tells Mike and John that salt makes mashed potatoes taste good.
I'll let you decide whether that worked or not.
I see similar thing happening every day at acne forums.
Somebody comes and types with big, bold font that they finally found a solution for acne. The story usually starts with how after many years of research and testing they found a solution that work. By the way, research usually means talking to other people who have no idea how to cure acne. And reading articles sponsored by supplement makers. Testing means buying every supplement they got their hands on until something finally got them clear. The supplement usually corrected some deficiencies that lead to acne.
So you get excited and spend some of your hard-earned money on the supplement. Yet, nothing happens. Pimples still stare back at you from the mirror. You sink back into desperation - until you see the next big, bold message.
So the cycle continues. You keep spending your money and riding on emotional roller coaster.
Which brings us to the next mistake.
Not thinking holistically
Fact: you never know exactly what causes your acne. Acne is a complicated condition and you can't pin it down to one or few simple causes.
There's only one way to cure acne naturally that works for everybody and every time.
But let's get back to mashed potatoes.
As you know Mike's and John's mashed potatoes are beyond salvation. The only way for them to get great tasting mashed potatoes is to start over. And this time with a good recipe.
When it comes to acne many of us have burned our mashed potatoes badly. No amount of dabbling with supplements or special regimens helps. You have to start from a clean slate.
First you have to scrub the pots and pans. Meaning to get rid of toxins and other garbage that's creating havoc. The next step in curing acne naturally is to rebuild your health. One step at a time and putting in all the ingredients.
Instant gratification
Seth Godin just came up with an excellent book called The Dip. The dip means the obstacles and barriers you have to overcome before you reach your goal. The dip is in front of any goal worthwhile aiming for. Including clear skin.
But when it comes to curing acne you are constantly bombarded with magic pills and quick-fix solutions.
When I look at the way acne products are sold I can't help to think of weight loss products. Everybody knows that those weight loss pills and fad diets don't work. Everybody besides those desperate to loose weight.
Real, sustainable weight loss is possible. You can also cure acne naturally and permanently. It just takes little time, persistence and effort.
It doesn't happen overnight and you can't buy it from infomercials.
