Adult acne is a challenge and not necessarily a by-product of age like it was when we were young. It's true that adult acne breaks out mainly due to hormonal reasons, but it can also be the result of extremely oily skin.
First rule of acne. Never burst it even though you think it looks better that way. How exactly to burst acne is very scientific and should not be done by someone who doesn't know how to. If the first step to bursting acne is wrong, then it will leave a post acne mark or deep scar. So, it's best not to beat it out.

Sandalwood: The fragrant sandalwood could do wonders for your skin, and your ancestors have known it well.

Lemon: You might have an exciting date to look forward to or a big wedding in the family. So you wouldn't want to be sporting an awful acne scar now would you?
