You know the drill. When you see the first pimple, you immediately reach for heavier products with acids, scrub your face more often and go to extremes to get rid of it as quickly as possible. We get it, the panic is real. But drastically changing your skincare routine can upset the balance of your skin, and make it to go haywire.
So what should you do? Nothing at all. We know it sounds absolutely insane, but waiting for pimples to go away on their own will save your skin a lot of grief. So try to resist the urge to thoroughly change your routine , as this will disturb your skin and do more harm than good. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you can not use a mild spot treatment, such as Dermalogica’s AGE Bright Spot Fader, on the pimples that you already have. | BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY
We now know what triggers acne in the summer months, but now the question is how to get rid of these unwanted friends and, most importantly, how we prevent them. CLEANSE, CLEANSE, CLEANSE your face every morning and evening. Double cleansing removes all makeup, sunscreen and dirt from your skin. This way, dirt doesn't get a chance to clog your pores. PS: Don’t wash your face with too hot water, avoid over-exfoliation (once a week is more than enough) and don’t treat your face too aggressively. These habits dry out your skin and provoke irritation which causes premature aging.
Use a moisturizer or serum tailored to your skin type to avoid dehydration. When your skin is not hydrated enough, it starts to produce more sebum/oil as a kind of self-defense mechanism. Be sure to get advice in our Skin Expertise Center.
Do you regularly go to the gym or run a lap in the local park? Then it's better to do this without makeup. You want to look good, of course, but makeup mixed with sweat clogs your pores, which can lead to pimples. It is important to wear a good SPF though. Gotta stay protected! Clean your face right after you work out so sweat and other impurities don't get a chance to get into your pores. | | 1 PRE PRE PRECLEANSE
