It is a headache waking up in the morning and noticing a nasty pimple on our face.
This is a nightmare we face in our teen years and sometimes it stays with us into adulthood.
Here are ten ways on preventing pimple from popping up.
1.
Do not touch your face, which is hard to do, however, the bacteria from your hands and fingers will get into your pores and clog it.
2.
Clean your face with a salicylic acid in the troubled areas.
3.
Benzoyl peroxide is proven to be the most effect non-prescription acne treatment available.
I would recommend starting with 5% rather than 10% because it is just as effective and will lower the risk of your skin being excessively dry or peeling.
4.
When faced with a pimple do not pop it; this will only spread the infection and make it worse.
By popping the pimple could result in a scar later on.
5.
I f you must shave an area of skin that is affected by acne use an electric razor.
If you use a razor use a single blade and shave in the direction of hair growth.
6.
If you have longer hair, be sure to pull it back or away from the face because this will prevent excess oil and bacteria from infecting your skin.
7.
Water is the miracle cure; by drinking eight twelve ounce glasses a day can clear your skin fairly quickly.
8.
Also as much as possible avoid stress because this will promote hormonal changes within your body and cause flare-ups.
9.
Shampooing your hair frequently will prevent breakouts along the forehead and chin area.
10.
Never over wash which will aggravate the skin and cause the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum.
