How can you prevent Acne?
Acne can not be prevented; however, there are a number of things you can do that may help reduce your risk of an acne flare-up:
-
Wash your face morning and evening with a soapless cleanser and warm water. Facial scrubs, rubbing too much, and washing too often can irritate the skin. Use a clean, fresh washcloth every day.
-
Wash off sweat soon as possible.
-
Keep your hands and hair away from your face. The oils in both can irritate the skin.
Use water-based (oil-free) cosmetics and sunscreens that will not block your pores.
