3 Ways To Treat Acne 

Thank goodness that you are an adult now. Gone are the days of being awkward during class, wondering where to sit at lunch, the pains of braces cutting the inside of your mouth, having to deal with a curfew! The days of puberty are long since gone, so why are you still dealing with acne? If you’re wondering how you can deal with acne, from angry-red pimples to snow-capped whiteheads, keep reading!

Use A Gentle Cleanser 

Maybe you’re already washing your face; however, did you know what you’re washing your face with matters? If you’re using a harsh soap or one filled with perfumes, it can potentially dry out your skin which can lead to even more oil production as a response which can lead to more acne. Using a gentle cleanser, twice a day, while being mindful of both the force you wash with and the temperature of the water so as to not irritate your skin, can help!

Over The Counter Acne Products

Products containing benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient can help remove the excess oil that leads to acne. Be mindful of your skin’s behavior towards these products, some have been known to cause dry skin in some people. Also, be mindful of potentially reddening or scaly skin. These over-the-counter products typically help with mild to moderate acne and may take a few weeks to show some, if any, results.
