Acne is quite a "normal" thing in the age of 12-15 - during the puberty. It's caused by hormonal imbalance, because the body is changing and growing.
But when you're about 15-16 years old and the acne is not disappearing and it's getting even worse... That's not normal anymore. The cause may be somewhere else. I've started suffering from acne about six years ago and from day to day I still struggle with that.
If you've ever suffered from this skin issue, I guess you can imagine those feelings : constantly looking for a "miracle" to solve the problem, the fear of going out without make-up, being afraid of going somewhere without all of your creams, gels, toners, sitting at home in summer instead of going to the beach because you can't wear makeup there...
Acne can really destroy your self love and your mental health. You don't like how you're looking, it seems so unfair that it happened to you and you're afraid that you will never look "normal". It's easy to say that the"beauty is inside" and that it doesn't matter how your skin looks like. But it's so hard when you see all those people around you (in the real and in the virtual world), who have such a flawless skin.
So, let's talk about that "magical" acne cure. After all of the years of this battle with acne I learned one thing: if you want to hal your skin, forget about the problem on its own.
Don't care about acne, care about your skin.
That's the best method of skin treatment. If you care only about the problem - no matter if you suffer from acne, eczema, super dry or super oily skin ... you will always just buy new special cosmetic products, or ointments, medicines .... and you will target only on the one problem. But the truh is, that naturally healthy skin doesn't suffer from any of these issues. So it's all about giving your skin a chance to heal on its own. Of course, you can help your skin through your diet, by eating a lot of fruit, vegetables, fiber, probiotics and maybe some dietary supplements and using natural cosmetics. By focusing on the regenerating and nourishing your skin, you will be also more relaxed and your skin will be even healthier this way :)

Of course, you shouldn't feel bad. Acne is just a symptom of something, that's happening inside of your body. You shouldn't feel ugly and depressed just because your skin is nor in perfect condition. Are you ashamed of your red nose when you're having cold? Or are you feeling ashamed of your voice when you're having sore throat? Skin problems are similar, it's just a bit harder to realize that.
