Want To Prevent Acne?

Among the different causes for acne,one important cause is to have an oily skin. An oily skin produces excess sebum which gets clogged in the pores of the skin. These pores then become prone to infection which often gets infected by bacteria and leads to an acne outbreak. So in order to prevent acne,you must try to keep your skin oil free. As the facial skin is prone to excess sebum production,acne attacks are also mainly found on the face. A greasy and oily face also looks bad. So in order to prevent acne as well as to look beautiful,you must make your face oil free.

The following tips can be followed to have an oil free skin:

(1) Wash your face regularly at least twice a day. It removes the dirt, pollution and extra oil so that they don’t clog the pores of the skin. Use warm water to wash the face and then rinse with cold water.

(2) You can use an astringent to remove the excess oil. Make sure not to use any oil based make-up.

(3) Before going to bed, make sure to remove all make-up from your face. It is better not to use any cold cream or other similar lotions.

(4) Try to avoid junk foods, oily and fried foods.

(5) Avoid oil based sunscreen lotions. Alcohol based lotions and creams should also be avoided.

(6) There is a direct link between stress and acne. When a person is under stress it increases the sebum secretion which makes the skin oily.

(7) Drink a lot of water.

(8) While using make-up, it is better to use loose powder instead of foundation or compact. Using loose powder several times can make the skin dry.

If you follow the above tips,you can make your skin oil free. But you should always remember the fact that while having a dry skin is good to prevent acne,it is likely to age faster than oily skin.
