Puberty may be known as one of the strangest periods in life where the body goes through transformation from childhood to adulthood that not many of us are fond of remembering, especially not when it comes to skin problems like acne. As it happens, though, this isn’t the only period for annoying acne to appear, as many are dealing with it even in adulthood.
One of the basic and important way to treat breakouts is adopting a cleaning routine that you’d have to do daily, of course starting by carefully choosing the adequate beauty products for acne. You’d come across a variety of acne related products but that doesn’t mean they’re all equally effective in helping you, especially not the traditional cosmetics.
If you want to spend your money on something of quality that’s created to really treat your acne then you should look for organic products full of antioxidants, vitamins particularly vitamins C and E, and extracts such as tea tree and aloe vera.
These beauty products for acne stand out from the rest because they’re created to be easily absorbed, are free of harmful ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, parabens and talc known to dry the skin, and apart from helping with the acne, they’re non greasy yet still perfect as moisturisers, protecting the skin from the damaging UV rays, preventing and reducing ageing signs as well as evening the skin tone and tightening pores.
Being picky with the products you buy is one of the steps to healthy breakout-free skin, the other being washing the face at least twice daily with warm water (warm, not hot!) in a combination with mild cleansers since harsh ones add to the breakouts instead of treating them.
Likewise, it’s important to pay attention to what you put on your skin when you’re out and about. Using makeup to cover up seemed like a wise choice to avoid the unsightliness though you’re not doing your skin a favour at all, especially when it comes to adding foundation and blush. If you simply must wear them, even at the cost of aggravating your acne issue, then make sure to clean them out as soon as you can when you’re back home.
By now you’ve probably heard your diet has its influence too, so one of the ways to deal with this is minding what you eat. Change your diet by consuming more fresh food per day, lots of fruits and veggies and by all means cut down on sugar and greasy food. Yes, it’s easier said than done but remember you’ll thank yourself later when you see the long awaited changes with your skin!
