How To Get Rid Of Acne – Few Preventions Every Teenager Should Follow

• Wash your face twice or thrice a day, but not more than that. Use a mild soap or a face wash made especially for teenagers. Refrain from scrubbing the skin.
• Do not touch your face with your hands, especially when you’re attending your mobile phone or working over a laptop. Mobile phone and Laptop/Desktop keyboards has enormous amount of germs which could worsen your situation.
• Do not try to burst pimples. You’d think it’s the fastest way to get rid of acne and pimples, but it actually deepens the infection further. Causing swelling and redness over the face. Which you really wouldn’t appreciate, I guess. So avoid it.
• Keep your hands clean. It’s through hands we’re transferring a lot of germs from our cell phones, laptops and other things where germs breeds in. Wash your hands after every such activity. Trim your nails too. Do not use nails to poke in over the face.
• Wash your pillowcases twice every week. Keep it clean. It’s just another place, where germs could breed in, resulting in more acne and pimples over face.
• Don’t go to sleep with your make-up on. No matter how sleepy you’re feeling or wherever you’re. Make-up is one big factor that could speed up the acne and pimple problem. Avoid any kind of make-up that adds up oil on your skin or block pores.
• Have a healthy diet. Lots of fruits and green leafy vegetables, citrus based fruits, juices, smoothies should be a part of your daily diet. Avoid junk foods. Eat what’s natural and good for your skin.
• It’s just not the face where acne and pimples breed in. Acne and pimples could breed in at back, chest, shoulders. Avoid wearing tight fitting clothes(headbands, scarves, caps, bandanas). Wear loose fitting clothes, let your skin breathe.
• Acne and pimple problem is associated with our hairs as well. Keep your hairs clean and away from the face. Keep your hairs short and tidy, if that suits your makeover.
• If you wear glasses, please clean them daily.
• Avoid getting out in the sun. Avoid direct exposure. Use an umbrella or shade or clothes, whatever makes it easy for you. Say no to sun burn creams.
• Wash and treat your face gently. No harsh method should be used. Avoid rubbing, but gently pat dry with a clean towel after washing it.
• You can use benzoyl peroxide in the form of either a soap or lotion over your acne-prone areas. This product works to clean off dead skin and help your skin to regenerate new, clean cells faster. Look for products that contain 3% or less of benzoyl peroxide to avoid irritating your skin.
• As far its possible, stick to the home remedies for acne and pimples to woe them away. It’s convenient, it’s not at all harsh on the skin as compared to other chemical treatments available.
• If you shave, get a shaving cream that suits your skin type. Always pad your skin with soapy water before using the sharp razors on your skin. Be gentle. Take your own time.
• It’d be beneficial if you’d consult a dermatologist to know more about your skin, skin type, the product you should use and everything.
