Get Rid of Acne!

Skin Care Tips for People Undergoing from Acne

February 7, 2008

These several tips can help you get rid of acne

  • The first thing to remember is that you have to be gentle with your face. Don’t wash your face with hot or cold water. Use mild cleanser and a lukewarm water twice a day and after your workout at the gym, in case you do work out. Avoid regular soap and other similar products that are filled with rugged chemicals. If you are not used cleansers before, ask a doctor for advice.

  • Wash you face gently and rinse perfectly. Pad you face dry and avoid scrubbing. Scrubbing could open a thousand invisible lesions in your skin that are the perfect breeding grounds for bacteria.
  • Keep Your Hands Away from Your Skin. Although it is against your instincts, you must learn to keep your hands away from pimples and other lesions. Squeezing pimples is a bad idea, unless performed under sterile conditions by a doctor.
  • If you have to shave, then be very careful about it. Run a test on yourself and see if which type of razor works better for you. I’d say that electric razors are recommended to use if you suffer from acne, but each man knows better what works in his case. Shave gently and avoid opening up existing lesions.
  • Cosmetics are one of the minor roots of acne. If you’re going through an acne treatment, then choose only oil-free cosmetics or else the good effect is wasted. You should also run tests on yourself and see which cosmetics do not clog your pores. Watch out for side-effects if you use products whose labels say “designed not to clog pores”.
  • Stay out of the Sun. Undoubtely, suntan would look nicely on you, but you should learn to do without it for a while. The risks of sun exposure are not acceptable when you realize that the sun does not cure acne. UV rays simply dry the outer layers of your skin and cause it to peel away. However, once you are away from the sun, acne will come back. Prolonged exposure will also make you a certain candidate for skin cancer.

I hope this help you a little, your comments are welcome!
