With the summer come the skin woes, especially for those who suffer from excessively oily skin.
The hot and humid climate in summer can bring out the worst in our skin. Excessive sweating, the heat etc...all contribute to our skin problems.
Here are 3 ways in which we can reduce our skin from erupting with pimples, boils and rashes in summer:
- Deep cleaning
Generally our cleanup is restricted to slathering on some acne control face wash, which we massage on your skin using our hands. It's time to go a bit deeper.
Use a delicate cleaning brush to clean the dirt, grime and dead skin cells off your face, including all the other stuff that is clogging your pores.
A brush can reach places where your fingers can't explore. Remember not to scrub too hard as the skin on your face is delicate.
- Soak up all the oil
The main cause of skin breakouts is usually oil. When you sweat so much, it goes without saying that your skin also produces excessive oil to keep your face moist.
Use a toner a couple of times a day to get all the oil off your face. To get the maximum benefit out of this toner routine, get a toner that contains salicylic acid that works to keep the acne and pimples away.
- Do not wait
Do not wait for your skin to erupt. Prepare for the worst. Treat your skin to a layering of benzoyl peroxide that kills all the bacteria on the face and prevents breakouts.
So if you are looking for simple ways to prevent your face from breaking out in the hot summer months, this is it.
