Adult Acne Treatment Techniques!

Regimen: According to WebMD you should try to keep your face clean during the day. Use makeup that doesn’t clog or weigh you face down. Make sure to wash your face twice daily with a cleanser. Use only cold to lukewarm water (hot water is drying). Wash for just 1-2 minutes.

Weren’t taking notes? We’ve got you covered. Here are Bell’s “Ten Beauty Basics” for avoiding breakouts:

1. Thoroughly remove make-up every night.

2. Cleanse lightly in the AM.

3. Use a deep pore cleanser or exfoliating mask at least once a week.

4. Buy a stack of cheap wash cloths and use a clean one daily.

5. Choose an exfoliating cleanser with multi-fruit acids.. or salicylic acid if you’ve got thick oily skin.

6. Flip pillows nightly and change pillowcases twice a week.

7. Keep hair off face especially if using gels, pomades or hair fixatives.

8. Use a water based moisturizer to prevent dehydration (even if you’re oily) to help balance oil production.

9. Drink plenty of water and exercise.

10. Limit or eliminate excessive sugar and sodas.. (candida can make acne worse ) take note of what you’re eating when breakouts worsen.
