(1) Stress

Stress has its role to play in the appearance of acne. When you're under stress, your body produces more hormones than usual and as a result, more sebum. This sticky substance renders the skin oily and aids in the development of acne. While you can't avoid stress completely, you can at least deal with it and try to destress yourself by means of relaxation, meditation, yoga, deep breathing, exercise, music, taichi, a warm bath etc... Don't stress yourself too much as far as possible and even if you have, combat it by trying to relax your body every way you can. This will help in preventing or reducing acne.

(2) Exercise

Exercise is highly recommended just for the sake of staying healthy. But exercise does not only help in keeping fit but it can prevent acne as well. Regular exercises improve the blood flow to your skin and provides oxygen to your skin cells. Sweating is a good thing as your skin pores can be cleaned inside resulting in a healthier skin with less acne formation or acne disappearance. Like mentioned above, stress contributes to the over-production of hormones and exercise can rebalance them and as a result, acne is prevented or reduced.

As exercising improves fitness overall, the organs of your body will work much better and toxins will be released faster from your body along with the sweat. Toxins are among one of the culprits for acne outbreak and when you remain inactive physically, they can stay in your body. Also, drink lots of water when you exercise as the latter will remove the toxins from your body. Engage yourself in exercises like brisk walking, jogging, cycling and swimming.
