Acne Care Secrets Revealed: Keep Skin Acne Free With These Tips

Whether you are 14 or 40, acne can breakout any time. Lifestyle issues, hormonal imbalance, bad eating habits all can lead to acne breakouts. Excess oiliness, clogged pores, tender skin all signal that your skin is going to experience acne flare up. Whenever the hormones in our bodies start fluctuating it creates an overall imbalance in the body. This causes pimples to start popping up on your skin. 

What is acne and how is it 

Acne flare ups happen when hair follicle or pores in your skin get clogged. When the oil glands in your skin get on an overdrive and produce excess sebum, they settle into the pores, while the dead skin layer get stuck into the pores. Added to this, the bacteria, which is naturally present in our skin, multiply and infect the clogged pores. This triggers inflammation and the skin looks red and feels tender and painful.  This finally develops into full-fledged pimple. Blackheads, whiteheads, pustules and papules are all forms of acne. 

The key triggers of acne

It is also seen that stress causes a hormonal imbalance which in turn upsets your body’s natural sebum production that can clog pores. The hormones can also lead to inflammation; all these put together can stimulate acne producing bacteria. Also, as you grow older your skin cell turnover slows down. This leads to your skin getting thicker with dead skin layer than fresh skin. This layer then clogs pores which already

have issues with irregular sebum production, the result is acne. And this applies to both women and men. Besides stress and hormones, other triggers that lead to acne flare ups include pollution, smoking, oily or greasy food, wrong skin care products and side effects of medication.  To fight this, you need to focus on using the right acne-care products and skin care solutions. 

8 skincare tips to prevent acne and pimples

Tip#1: Use a face wash or an acne care cleansing wipe twice a day. However, do not over wash your face as it aggravates the sebum production on your skin. Using a skin cleansing wipe is a great way to clean your skin without aggravating the condition. Do not rub your skin, simply wipe skin gently and dab it dry.

Tip#2: If skin feels oily mid-day, refresh your skin.  Use a face-mist of diluted rosewater or use an oil-control face wipe. Dab your skin, leaving it little damp. Keep some wet wipes for face to cleanse and tone your oily skin any time, anywhere. 

Tip#3: Keep your skin hydrated. Use a gel-based, oil-free moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated. Twice or thrice a week you can replenish your oily skin with acne care face sheet masks. These help to tone, hydrate and balance oily skin. 

Tip#4: Remove makeup every night before going to be. Avoid using creamy or oil-based makeup. It can clog your pores. Use makeup remover wipes to take off makeup thoroughly before going to bed. 

Tip#5: Keep your pores clean. We recommend you use pore cleansing wipes and pore minimizing face sheet masks to ensure that your pores are toned and balanced. This helps to reduce excess oil on skin and balance it. 

Tip#6: Pick acne care range of products. Use products meant for acne-prone skin. Look for labels like oil-free, non-comedogenic on the products you buy. These have been formulated for pimple-prone skin.

Tip#7: Avoid picking your pimple. Touching or picking your pimples can inflame skin and aggravate the condition. Instead focus on using washes and wipes that fight bacterial infection.
