Why Do We Get Acne?

Acne can also be the result of seasonal weather changes, alterations in your diet, or even new beauty products. Where possible, it is always best to introduce changes to your routine or products slowly and one at a time.

Minimizing the number of products you use, as well as treating your skin gently, can keep break outs at bay. Acne appears as the result of many things, but keeping a bottle of NENA Glacial Clay on your shelf means you and your skin won’t need to stress over how to get rid of it!
