Biotin Causes Acne?
This is not a review. In this video I talk about biotin and why I think that it may cause acne. I’m currently taking between 4-5 1000mcg tablets of Sundown Naturals biotin. I also take 2 OneSource Complete Hair, Skin & Nail Multi Vitamins (I purchased from Walmart) per day. Am I overdosing on biotin?

Causes of Acne and Pimples -What Causes Acne Breakouts
What causes acne breakouts?, Worldwide, is estimated that 60 million people suffer from acne. Acne is a major skin problem that affects people all over the world. Please keep reading to learn more about causes of acne and pimples. I did some research and here are the answer that I came up with.
Common Causes Of Acne and Pimples
1) Food We Eat -Some people are likely to have acne outbreak with some diets like carbohydrates and sugars. Consuming a diet high in oils, fats and sugars can interfere with your hormonal balance. These types of foods are known to cause acne breakouts. A good diet for your skin should include fruits, vegetables, skim milk, cottage cheese and lean meats. Oily foods are also what causes acne breakouts.
2) Androgen Body Hormones -These are sex hormones and research shows that they rank to be the top of what causes acne breakouts. These hormones begin during puberty and this is the reason why most individuals who are affected by acne are young people or teens. During menstruation or pregnancy, women tend to have more of these Androgen hormones and this explains why pregnant women or a woman who is on her menstrual cycle is more likely to have pimples on her face or sometimes called facial acne outbreaks.
3) Personal Stress Is What Causes Acne Breakouts -Yes stress causes acne outbreaks. Stress is related to production hormones like cortisol which has been known to cause acne. When a person is stressed out, their body develops different hormone levels. With these hormone changes, the body starts to produce more oil to the skin. White heads, black heads and pimples types of acnes are caused by these oils on the skin.

4) Heavy Makeups, Oily Makeups/Cosmetics -Heavy makeups are not good for your skin. They cause clogging of pores and adds more oil to your skin. Is even more worse when someone put heavy makeups on their oily existing skin! Moisturizers or cosmetics contains more than one chemical like vegetable oils, alcohol, petrolatum and acids which contribute to causes of acne and pimples.
5) Steroids and Specific Medications -It is wise to stop overusing vitamins. Vitamins are essential to our skin but overusing them can cause acne. Examples of such vitamins are B1, B6 and B12. Abuse or inappropriate use of steroids, especially anabolic steroids can lead to acne breakouts because they stimulate sebaceous glands. Sebaceous glands present in the skin secrete a substance called sebum into hair follicles and most of the skin.
6) Doing Harsh and Rough Cleansing -Avoid harsh and rough cleansing to your skin especially on the face. The facial skin is extremely sensitive to rough cleansing, it can easily be damaged. This kind of cleansing can damage the skin layers and spread infections. When cleansing your skin, use lukewarm water. Water that is too hot can dehydrate your skin and too cold can dry your skin. This is also what causes acne breakouts, Take it easy when doing skin cleansing.
7) Picking and squeezing of the skin plus squeezing and Environmental issues -High humidity causes the skin to swell and pollution of the environment can cause clogging of your pores. Avoid picking and squeezing pimples or acne outbreaks as this can send infections deeper into the skin and cause scarring.
8) Hereditary Factors Is What Causes Acne Breakouts-As I said earlier some causes of acne are inevitable. This is a good example of a cause of acne that we can’t avoid. Acne can be inherited and some serious acne causes such as Cystic acne do come from heredity like through family members such as our parents and grandparents.
9) Extra Sebum in the Follicle -When androgens stimulates sebaceous gland, it produces extra sebum which mixes with dead skin cells and skin bacteria. This is a normal process but excess sebum in the follicle increases the chances of clogging and acne. There are things that can lead to production of excess sebum like anabolic steroids.
Causes of acne and pimples both include external and Internal factors. There are many other causes of acne and pimples but these are just the major reasons. The best way to deal with what causes acne breakouts is skin hygiene and a good diet. Medications that you take also must be watched out in case of sudden acne breakouts. If you have serious acne problems, I highly recommend that you see a dermatologist. So these are the major causes of acne and pimples. Remember that prevention is better than cure and if you have to treat your acne, Don’t forget to prevent it from coming back.
Do greasy foods and chocolate cause acne breakouts?
That’s the way it is for me! If I eat greasy food and/or chocolate today, I will be able to notice it on my face tomorrow. I get acne from it.
Also.. breakouts can be correlated with the chocolate and/or greasy food consumption but maybe not necessarily caused by it. Perhaps that is why it is a myth; it is not direct causation, but rather just a strong correlation.For athletic purposes, my coach told me to cut gluten, yeast and dairy out of my diet and in a week my acne was gone (:Mostly no, if its a teen, its mostly hormones, but some people do get a pimple after they eat somethingNaah. Zits nd breakouts have to do with the Amt of hormone( testosterone or estrogen) that leaks into ur pores when ur an adolescent… So says my science teacher and repro videoyes it will cause acne breakouts. but you can also try few others methods too
Don’t touch your face, because our hands is the main reason spread bacteria and viruses. So try to wash our hand throughout the day.
If possible, try to wash your face twice a day, which is very simple and easy to reduce your acne.
Another way to improve your acne problem, try to do some regular exercise. It clear out your pores and dead skin cells. After sweating, remember to take shower which not only clean your skin, and also try to replenish moisture by applying moisturizer.
Product with Benzoyl Peroxide definitely give your good results to clear away the acne. Benzoyl Peroxide kill the acne bacteria which cause your breakout.
Salicylic Acid is also another product to get rid of dead skin, which clear your pores and blockages. But use it carefully on sensitives skin.
Try to use makeup with oil-free or noncomedogenic label, it certainly help to reduce the chance of breakout.

@sweetbee06 Yes girl green tea. I think that it might be because of the antioxidants in it.
