Everyone desires to have a clear glowing skin that is free from acne. But getting such skin is not that easy.
It all needs proper maintenance. For that many of us buy and use various beauty products.
Seasonal change and skin problems
Seasonal changes bring various skin problems to the skin. Not to mention the summer season.
Even people who don’t have acne get pimples on their face due to excess oil and sweat during this period.
By following some basic skin care tips you can get rid of acne and get clear skin.
Glancing
It is important for people with oily skin to wash their face twice or thrice daily and wash their face with warm water to avoid pimples during summer.
That said, people with dry skin should only wash twice a day with a face wash and cold water. Avoid warm water.
Skin-friendly face wash
Face wash must be used to clean the face. But, don’t use the same facewash in all seasons.
Buy and use face washes according to your skin type (dry skin vs oily skin) especially during summers. People with oily skin should use gel based face wash.
Frequent use of soap
While it is important to keep your skin clean during summer, avoid washing your face with soap too often. You can wash your face with plain water as many times as you like.
Frequent face washing strips the face of its natural oils and dries out the skin, producing more oil to compensate. It causes acne.
Using sunscreen
A non-comedogenic and gel-based sunscreen can be used to protect the skin from harmful UV rays.
Sunscreens with SPF 15 and SPF 30 (Sun Protection Factor) provide more protection from the sun.
Do not touch your face with your hands
Frequent touching of the face can cause bacteria and dirt from the hands to spread to the face and cause pimples.
Likewise, picking and dirtying the pimples on the face should not be done. This can make acne worse.
Can I use moisturizer?
It is important to use a moisturizer to retain moisture in the skin. However, unlike winter moisturizers; Use a non-comedogenic and oil-free moisturizer during summers. This will help prevent the pores from clogging.
Stay hydrated
One of the best and simplest ways to maintain smooth glowing skin is to drink plenty of water. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day to reduce acne breakouts.
Similarly, water-rich foods such as watermelon, cucumber, oranges, and young water should be added more.
