Dealing with breakouts even though you’re doing your absolute best to treat your acne? Your skincare routine could be to blame - or maybe you’re missing a few key steps that would make all the difference.

Check out these simple tips below to best help you become acne-free:

1- Wash your face after sweating

Aside from the usual day and night cleanse, make sure to never leave your face sweaty! Always immediately wash your face after a sweat session at the gym, or during a hot summer day. This will make a world of difference.

2- Be gentle

Use your fingertips to gently cleanse your face with an appropriate cleanser. Something like these products below:

P.s. remember, don’t scrub! Gentle, gentle, gentle.

3- Rinse with lukewarm water

Rinsing with lukewarm water gets all the dirt off your skin’s surface - it also balances your natural skin oils, very important if you have acne-prone skin.

4- Don’t pick your face

You’ve probably heard this one before, multiple times - it’s because it’s true! Picking, popping, or squeezing your acne only makes things worse. It also increases the risk of getting acne scars; you don’t want that!

5- Protect your face from UV rays

This goes for every skin type or concern, but is definitely more true for people with acne-prone skin. It’s summer season and we know you’ve been all about the tan - please do your skin a favor and avoid the sun damage all in all.
