Acne is often caused by a disruption of the hormonal system, and aggravated by bad diet and stress. This ancient Chinese secret for bringing the hormones back into balance will help to clear up acne as it helps you to feel more energized and whole.

Find out the remedy here:

1. Stand with your legs spread shoulder-width apart, hold your arms straight out in front of you, and interlock your fingers.

2. Inhale and lift your hands over your head. As you exhale, move your upper body from right to left with your back bent slightly backward, using the strength of your hips to do this.

3. Inhale again and return to your starting position while exhaling. Repeat this exercise eight times.

Ok, it's been a week and my acne has actually gone down a little bit. although, that could be because my stress has completely dissipated and most of my acne is from stress... i don't think i'll continue this though, i mean, what's so special about standing and breathing?

i hate buying anti-acne soaps and scrubs. they always make me nervous and i end up wondering if they really are good for my skin. just because it may leave your skin "healthy looking" does that mean it really is?

anyways, i'm going to try this for 7 days with my regular cleansing routine and next friday i will tell you guys if it actually works!

This is neat. But if you want "REAL" ancient Chinese secrets" you must get them by recording real Chinese people saying them. You are in luck...
