One Of The Easier Tips To Clearing Up Acne

During high school and college, I had pretty bad acne all over my face, chin, forehead, and cheeks. I tried a lot of different creams like OXY, Clearasil, Clean & Clear, Stridex, and Neutrogena. They helped a little bit but my acne was still pretty severe.

Once I moved away to college, I had the bright idea of covering my pillow with a towel every night because I had a tendency to drool in my sleep. I didn't want people to see evidence of that. Much to my surprise, my acne started to clear up within weeks.

I looked up the internet for "towel" and "acne" and found that other people had success with clearing up their acne. The most reasonable explanation was that it absorbed oil from your skin to keep your pores unclogged. From that point on, I've slept on a towel every night and have only had a couple of pimples here and there.
