Acne on the nose – heart and circulatory problems

Poor circulation, high blood pressure and other cardiovascular problems may be linked to problems on your nose. If you’re experiencing any problems with your nose, we suggest detoxifying your body with a few cups of green tea each day.

Acne on the forehead – bladder and small intestine problems

Pimples and rashes on the forehead might be caused by excessive consumption of alcohol, processed food and high levels of stress. If this is the case, we recommend stopping the consumption of alcohol, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water and getting proper rest overnight. Eat a healthy balanced diet as well and you will eliminate the skin problems on your forehead.

Acne on the mouth and chin – hormonal imbalance

Dehydration can cause serious problems in the body such as hormonal imbalance which can lead to chin and mouth problems. Salty and too much seasoned food, too much coffee and other factors can also cause skin problems on your mouth and chin, so stay away from too much coffee and spices until they clear up.

Acne between the eyebrows – liver problems

When you eat processed and junk food often, your liver won’t be able to function as it should, resulting in the appearance of acne and pimples between the eyebrows. In order to keep your digestion and liver function in order, you need to start consuming a healthy diet and stay physically active as well. Take yoga classes, go swimming or dancing or go for a walk in order to boost your overall health and prevent the appearance of acne between your eyebrows.

Acne on the eyebrow arch – kidney problems

Neck and jaw acne – stomach problems

Any kind of skin problem that appears on your neck and jaw may be caused by problems with your stomach. These problems are usually brought up by eating heavy meals late, consuming too much spicy foods and high stress levels as well. In order to eliminate the acne from your neck and jaw, we suggest consuming fruits and veggies more often and spend more time with positive people.
