How to cleanse your Face when you have Acne

Posted on April 30, 2008 in Latest News

When you want to apply acne medication you have to ensure that your face is completely clean.
When you choose a facial cleanser go for the one that is oil-free and non-comedogenic. It is much better if you can find one that is referred “non-irritating” and “non-overdrying”. Washing your face with such facial cleanser helps prevent further aggravation of acne.
Some acne cleansers come with other medications included in them. The best advice we can give you – go for gentle cleansing that is followed by application of medication.
Be kind to your skin. Wash your face only twice daily – morning and evening. Washing your face more may cause irritation.
Know the fact that dirt does not cause acne. So, wash your face with bare hands. Do not use washcloth, as it may irritate your skin. Washing is to prepare your skin for application of medication.
Do not rub your skin. It irritates your skin, and can lead to more acne breakouts. Gently pat dry.
