Acne is a skin problem that affects about 90% of people during their life. There are many reasons why acne appears.
However, some things we might never have thought would cause acne actually do, and we might not even know it.
Viral Strange has collected 7 things that can cause pore-clogging and acne appearance.
Pores: We’ve all got these tiny openings in our skin for releasing sweat and oil, but for some people, they can be more temperamental than others. Or, rather, clogged pores happen more often to some of us than others. Clogged pores happen when oil doesn’t or can’t flow through them as it should, explains board-certified dermatologist Geeta Yadav, MD. “Typically, this is caused by the overproduction of oil that then becomes trapped by dead cells that haven’t properly shed from the lining of the pore. Makeup, dirt, and/or comedogenic ingredients can also block the pore, and prevent that flow of oil through it,” she says.
Comedogenic is essentially a word for pore-clogging, and while these types of ingredients aren’t the sole cause of acne and breakouts—there are several factors—they certainly won’t help the situation. “Pore-clogging ingredients make it much more likely that pimples will form,” says board-certified dermatologist Rachel Nazarian, MD. “In someone who has naturally oily skin or who harbors the bacteria that causes acne, using these ingredients is like adding gas to the fire. It’s a dangerous combination that can exacerbate acne and cause consistent breakouts.”
Coconut Oil
All three dermatologists we spoke with called out coconut oil as a common offender. “While it has a variety of health benefits, it’s highly comedogenic, especially when applied on the the face,” Palm explains. “Because it isn’t easily absorbed [into] the skin, it can trap bacteria and dead skin cells, making it detrimental for those who are acne-prone.”
PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT GWEN STEFANI, WHO IS 54 YEARS OLD, MIGHT BE HAVING HER FIRST BABY WITH BLAKE SHELTON, WHO IS 47 YEARS OLD.
People are talking about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton. Some think they might be having their first baby together. If this is true, it would be Gwen’s fourth child. Blake recently talked about how much Gwen’s three sons mean to him. Now, people think Gwen and Blake might be expecting a baby of their own. Blake talked in an interview about how important Gwen’s sons are to him and how being their stepfather changed him.
Blake Shelton talked about being a step-parent. He said it can be tough sometimes, but he tries to be there for Gwen’s kids when they need him. Adding a biological child to their family could make them really happy.
Some people close to Gwen and Blake said Gwen tried to get pregnant using IVF for a few months. But then she decided to stop and they tried to have a baby naturally.
Before they got married in 2020, Gwen and Blake were trying IVF to have a baby. But it was stressful for Gwen, so they focused on Gwen’s kids instead. In 2022, they talked to a specialist and it seems like Gwen got pregnant.
People who know Gwen say that at 54 years old, she’s been doing things to make herself healthier and more likely to have a baby. She does things like meditation, staying relaxed, and getting acupuncture regularly.
Lots of people are talking about Gwen and Blake maybe having a baby. People are excited and waiting to hear if it’s true.
