Many people would spend a lot of money to control acne. Unfortunately, we could not find a perfect method to eliminate acne until now. However, we could change our habit to prevent the acne from getting worse.

Acne Curing Tips

Cleansing

One of the main reasons of acne formation is blocking the pore with sebum or debris. As a result, we must clean our face thoroughly and control oil secretion. You can choose the cleansing products special for acne. Most of them contain AHA or salicylic acid which could kill germs and clean the blocked pores.

Mask

Remember never use exfoliates when you have acne since the scrub will stimulate the acne to become worse. If you must carry out exfoliation to remove dead cells, you can change the way of massage. Gently press the face instead of rub in circle direction. Also, cleansing mask could deeply clean your face but not stimulating acne.

Toner

Apply mattifying lotion to remove excess sebum. If the mattifying lotion is too irritative, you can use water added with natural flower e.g. Rose, Lavender etc. May use oil blotting paper to remove excess oil on the face. Not suggested to use more than 3 times a day since blotting too much would dry up the skin too much and stimulate the skin to secret more and more oil.

Curing Essence

Most of the acne lotions or essences contains salicylic acid, sulfur or Retin-A as they help kill germs and cure acne. When you discover your acne formation, you must treat it immediately. In addition, anti-inflammatory and soothing skin care products should be applied to protect your skin.

Moisturizer

Never rub or disturb the acne, it will break the hair follicle and form scar. Use oil-free skin care products and try to get rid of any make up. Can apply anti-inflammatory or anti-septic concealer if necessary.

Sun Care

UV rays would stimulate the horny layer and make acne, you may apply light texture UV Block but never too long. Food rich in sugar would stimulate the chance to grow acne too, avoid eating too much. Some beauty supplement could be taken instead.

Red marks may leave on skin after imflammation, apply special whitening essence to these marks at night for effective whitening.
