Skincare Tips for Acne-Prone Skin
Cleanse gently:
Wash your face twice daily with a gentle, non-comedogenic cleanser. Avoid strong cleaners that remove natural oils and exacerbate acne.
Exfoliate regularly:
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells that block pores and cause acne. Exfoliate once or twice a week with a light salicylic acid product or soft brush.
Moisturize properly:
Even with acne-prone skin, moisturize. Oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturizers won't clog pores. Hydrated skin reduces breakouts and oil production.
Use acne-fighting ingredients:
Use acne-fighting treatments like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. They eliminate bacteria, clear pores, and relieve irritation.
Be gentle with your skin:
Scrubbing, plucking, or popping pimples can aggravate acne and scar. Cleanse and apply products gently in circular motions.
Avoid heavy makeup:
Makeup should be non-comedogenic or oil-free and "acne-friendly." Prevent pore-clogging by removing makeup before night.
Protect your skin from the sun:
Sun exposure worsens acne and causes post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Even on cloudy days, use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen.
Don't over-wash or over-treat:
Over-washing or applying too many acne remedies might dry and irritate your skin. Consult a dermatologist and follow product instructions.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle:
Diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management can improve skin health. These things minimize acne and clean skin.
