How To Care For Acne Prone Skin

Acne (pimples) is known scientifically as Acne Vulgaris, is a skin condition that starts showing up during puberty and is triggered as a result of an infected sebaceous gland. 

See some tips to care for your acne prone skin;

• Wash your skin gently with a mild soap or facial wash at least TWICE a day

• Avoid scrubbing your acne prone areas to prevent irritation

• Use an OIL FREE moisturizer for your acne prone areas

• For ladies, ensure you avoid hair that covers your acne prone areas as your hair oil contributes to acne development

• Wash your PILLOW CASE every week because you need to get rid of the hair oil that might have settled on it

• Ensure you do not use harsh products on your skin. I would recommend a mild facial wash or soap and those made preferably from mild natural ingredients.

• Do not throb your pimples

• Avoid oily and fatty foods, ensure you eat lots of fruits and vegetables

• Reduce or avoid eating peanuts and butter

• Try cooking with healthy oils such as olive oil.

• Do not use skin lightening or toning chemicals on your acne.

• Drink lots of water to flush out impurities

• Exercise regularly.
