Get Rid Of Adult Acne!
Suffering from adult acne? You’re not alone!
Here are some effective ways to stop breakouts that will definitely work for your skin;
1. Drink lots of water!
Water acts as a cleanser for your body.
Acne starts on the inside and makes its way to the surface. What better way than to clean ourselves from the inside out?!
Drinking water is one great way to stop breakouts.
2. Stop Touching Your Face!
It’s common to be sitting at your desk at work and rest your chin on your hand. What you may not realize is when you do this, bacteria from your hands is transferred to your face.
This is how pores are clogged and those not-so-lovely pimples appear.
Also, as tempting as it sounds, don’t pick at your acne. It’s only going to make it red and potentially scar.
3. Wash your face daily!
No one wants those dead skin cells or leftover oils on their face from the day before.
After a long day, make up, oil and dirt build up, a triple threat that easily clogs pores.
If you would like some advice on the best facial cleanser for your skin, our Beauty Therapists here at The Ivy will be happy to help.
4. Eat a balanced Diet
Avoid filling up on sugary foods, excessive amounts of dairy and processed grains.
This will help your complexion as well as your waistline!
A balanced diet full of vitamins and minerals will work to keep you strong, healthy and gorgeous from the inside out.
5. The make-up you use can be important too!
Pore clogging cosmetics can combine with your natural skin oils to cause breakouts.
Look for non-comedogenic products and wash your face thoroughly but gently every night.
6. Clean your Mobile!
Throughout the day mobile phones can be exposed to many surfaces that have bacteria on them.
When using your phone to talk you are putting bacteria close to your mouth and the warmth and moisture creates a great environment for bacteria to thrive and cause acne. Plus if you’re constantly on your phone rubbing it against your face can lead to ‘acne mechanica’ which are pimples caused by friction.
Try and clean your phone with an alcohol wipe or hand sanitizer daily.
