We never ever get a heads up whenever a breakout is going to happen. And before we even know it, we end up with too many pus-filled bumps on our faces that might seem to be beyond salvation.
Some people choose to pick and squeeze at it, in the hope of getting them to heal one zit at a time, but what actually happens when you do that actually might exacerbate the condition, with all the bacterial on your hand on your infected areas.

It Spreads Like A Virus
used to be one of those who picked at everything that was foreign and toxic on my face, back in my teenage days… without ever knowing how breakouts actually happen. Boy, am I glad I do now!
When you successfully pick on a zit, you are actually transferring all the germs and bacteria you have on your fingers, to the area around your face. Stressed skin is extremely vulnerable to the full effects of germs.
To put it simply, for every zit you pop, there might be five more that might show up around it. Like a zombie apocalypse out there on your skin, people.

Going Topical
Persistent acne problems are caused predominantly by excessive sebum production by the skin, and this is uniform throughout the surface of the skin. Acne creams might do that job over a period of time on the affected areas, but cannot guarantee the rest of your skin stays acne-free.
Some of these topical solutions do work, undoubtedly, but do these creams work fast enough to clear your skin before another bunch of zits surface on your skin?
Having said all that, topical creams can still be the answer for milder acne issues.
Products like Clear Bliss tackle the key issue of excessive sebum production, reducing the shine on your face, while unclogging your pores, preventing any chance of acne bacteria finding a home.
This gel-based product also does one better by reducing the sensitivity and redness of your skin.
