Cleansing:

1. Always wash your face before bed with a salicylic face wash. You can also use homemade face scrub to deep clean the skin. Mix 1 tbsp of besan, a pinch of turmeric and a little milk to make a smooth paste. Apply over face and neck and gently massage in circular movements for at least 1-2 minutes to deep cleanse the skin. If you are too tired to wash your face, use face wipes to remove the makeup or dirt.

2. Don’t hurry while you clean. Wash your face for 30 secs to 1 minute with a generous amount of cleanser. It takes a little bit of time to clear dirt and oil off your face.

3. Use lukewarm water when washing your face. Hot water dries out your skin, and cold water won’t open up your pores. After you have finished cleaning, finally rinse with very cold water to close the clean pores.

4. Be gentle while washing or scrubbing the face. Scrubbing too hard can damage the skin’s elasticity and can irritate the skin. Avoid harsh scrubs and even wash cloths, which can be too rough on your face and can cause irritation. Use clean hands instead.non-comedogenic-face-wash-exfoliating-cleanser

5. Foam up your cleanser on clean hands first by rubbing between your palms with a little water. It helps to activate the ingredients and makes it more effective when applied to your face.

6. Don’t skip your morning wash. Hair styling products, dandruff, dirt, dead skin cells etc., get absorbed by your pillowcase then transfer to your skin. If it’s not cleared away in the morning, the pores get clogged and causes acne.

7. Don’t over wash. If your skin still feels oily, instead of washing again apply astringent after cleansing. Over cleaning the face causes more sebum production and triggers the acne.

8. Give exfoliation a top priority. It removes dead skin cells and dirt that are blocking your pores. It keeps the skin freshly breathing and prevents acne causing bacteria. Products with alpha hydroxy and lactic acids exfoliate gently to make you look radiant. Creams with glycolic acid can be used at night for gentle exfoliation.

9. Don’t use the scrub as a first step to clean the face. Wash the face with a mild face wash, then exfoliate. If the skin is clean and free of surface dirt, the exfoliant can focus on digging out the stubborn dirt and oil that are stuck deeper inside your pores.Exfoliate-to-Younger-Looking-Skin-4-size-3

The smooth texture of cleanser makes the brush to gently glide over the skin, while removing away all the dirt and dead skin effectively.

11. Be sure to rinse completely. Left-over cleanser does the same harm as the dirt and oil. Rinse with water with gentle massage till skin feels clean and smooth and no longer slippery or soapy.

12.  Use a clean towel every time you wash the skin. Pat dry the skin. Do nut rub hard to wipe the face.

14. A 3-step approach is what is needed to prevent acne–a salicylic acid cleanser, a benzoyl peroxide cream, and a light moisturizer.

16. Use a clay mask. The ingredients will penetrate deep intoyour skin and clean out excess oil and bacteria. It’s also an exfoliate to open pores and get rid of the dirt clogged inside the pores.

17. Use alcohol free products on your skin. Also keep the makeup as minimal as possible. Too many products can irritate the skin and triggers acne.

18. Popping out the pimples can cause infections, making the skin worse. Dab a tiny amount of acne cream on problem areas morning and night. It brings down swelling until your zit disappears.

19. If your at home treatment is not working, don’t hesitate to see a dermatologist. If the reason for your acne is some internal body condition, home treatments may not be effective on your skin. Dermatologist recommended products can help you to reduce the problem.

20. Benzoyl peroxide products are great at fighting pimples, but can be drying, so use them only once a day or every other day when you have acne. If it’s drying out or irritating your skin, switch out your cleanser for a gentle formula. Salicylic acid (in creams, gels, astringents or masks) dries less than benzoyl peroxide, so it can be used without drying your skin.

21. Oatmeal treatment:   Cook oatmeal as directed on the package. Let it cool, and then stir in lemon juice and an egg white. Apply mixture on pimples and leave overnight. Store the remaining mixture in a fridge for a week.

23.  Make sure to wash your makeup brushes regularly with a brush cleaner or baby shampoo. If you use makeup sponges, use disposable ones and discard them after each use. These tools can accumulate bacteria, which can lead to breakouts. Dirty brushes can make the most expensive skincare routines go to waste.
