Acnexus Reviewed, Honestly!

After my August voting poll Acnexus was the most popular choice for review so I did some research and testing. Other than finding a number of false reviews and fake rankings sites (I think I will have to write an article on this epidemic), the results themselves were interesting.


Firstly, it is a cream treatment that you apply to your skin twice daily the same way you would use a scrub - apply to clean skin, rub for 30 seconds, rinse off, and pat dry. Now in terms of effectiveness, I have to say I was impressed with the feeling it gives the skin after use. Your skin feels fresher and smoother, but not dry at all. Plus the feeling does last longer than other scrubs I have used, and it reduces oiliness for a period of time. It will open your pores like a scrub, and it will moisturize and heal your skin like a natural healing cream, but this will do both simultaneously. So, if you can afford the price of around $20-30 per month, I would recommend this product as a scrub/cream. Personally, though, I will stick to using an over-the-counter scrub and follow it with a natural moisturizer simply because it is 1/3 the price and I like having them separate, but if you like the idea of getting both actions in the same product then Acnexus is a very good option. It will definitely help treat acne, but let me be perfectly clear: it is not a cure! It will simply help, like any other scrub and healing cream would.

Acne Prevention Tips

For the millions of people who suffer from acne, here are some simple yet effective tips on acne prevention.


If you suffer from acne, as millions of people do, you’ve probably been given a lot of advice about acne prevention, as well as acne causes. However a lot of these are just old wives’ tales with no scientific facts behind them. Knowing the truth about acne prevention will help you make the right decisions.


Fast Foods & Chocolate


You’ve probably heard that eating chocolate will make you get pimples. But in fact science has not proven this to be true at all. Like any foods, consuming too much chocolate is certainly not good for you or your skin, but the occasional chocolate bar is not going to make you break out, especially if you eat healthy nutritious food the rest of the time. Just like with chocolate, your mom has probably cautioned you that french fries are bad for your skin. While fried foods are unhealthy, it’s only when you eat them all the time that it’s going to be a problem, and it’s more likely you’ll gain weight than get acne. Neither fried foods nor chocolate are responsible for acne, and avoiding them, while good for your health, is not particularly useful for acne prevention.

Acne Medication Over the Counter

Acne can cause extreme skin irritation. Hence, acne sufferers are on the lookout for an acne medication over the counter that can safely cure this skin condition quickly. Following article lists some popular acne products, known to get rid of acne fast.


The skin disorder that occurs due to over production of sebum (oil), resulting in clogging of skin pores, is referred as acne. The sebaceous glands that lie beneath the outermost layer, secrete sebum to keep the skin moist and soft. However, when sebum is produced in large amounts, the pores get choked creating a perfect environment for the bacteria to breed. This bacterial infection then triggers acne that causes formation of pimples, whiteheads and blackheads. In this condition, the skin turns red and may become inflamed.
