Acne occurs when open pores on the skin become clogged and subsequently infected by bacteria. Causes of acne can include food allergies and diet, hormone imbalances, poor hygiene and stress. Egg whites contain protein that heals and rebuilds skin while temporarily shrinking pores. Vitamin E helps keep oil trapped in pores from becoming infected and hardened. Since vitamin E is an antioxidant, it also reduces the look of acne scars by penetrating the skin to fight free radicals that affect the healing process. Both vitamin E and egg whites are used in numerous face mask recipes.
