7 Skin Care Tips for Oily & Acne Skin

During the period of adolescence, having your face covered with pimples and blackheads is not a fatality! The advice of dermatologists and professional makeup artists will help you to transmit your oily and acne skin very quickly.

Pamper Your Skin

Young people’s skin is easily irritated by too aggressive hygiene. In reaction, it produces more sebum. Therefore, your first step is to avoid using soaps and alcohol-based lotions together while washing face.

At morning and evening face cleaning, you need to use foaming gel or micellar water, which cleans makeup and removesblackheads quickly. Once a week, you need to use a scrub. After that, don’t forget the application of a purifying mask, green clay for example. The boys should choose special shaving foam for their skins and a razor with three blades, which are less aggressive.

Eat Better

Acne is aggravated by the daily consumption of sodas (even light), fast foods, oil and fat (chips, pastries, prepared meals ...). The anti-pimple diet, therefore, should be consisted in the diet by privileging water and homemade dishes.

Treat Oily Skin

In adolescence, the skin tends to glow, because the sebum is stimulated by the increase of testosterone, especially for girls. By using a mattifying cream or fruit acids (AHA), the production of sebum is slowed down. Girls can also use certain birth control pills that can limit the effects of testosterone on the skin.

Avoid Blackheads

Blackheads appear when the pores become blocked. Then, a glowing pimple happens because of a bacterium that feeds on sebum and secretes irritating substances. To stop the process, you must protect yourself from the sun, as it contributes to the thickening of the skin and clogging of the pores.

The blackheads will disappear with a cream based on fruit acids.

Do not Touch Pimples

Triturating blackheads with fingers full of microbes can turn them into pimples. It is best to use a comedian shoemaker (sold in pharmacy) after thoroughly cleansing the skin. And the purulent pimples should not burst, because the pus can spread, which will cause other pimples to appear, or to be injected deeply, favoring the birth of a red and hardball that will leave a scar.

It is better to treat the pimples as soon as they appear with a drying agent based on fruit acids, or opt for a skin cleansing in a dermatologist.

Use Right Products

If cosmetics with fruit acids are not effective, seek advice from a pharmacist. It can deliver the only over-the-counter acne medication, Brevoxyl 4%, benzoyl peroxide based cream. If this treatment does not work or if your child has a lot of pimples, consult a dermatologist who can prescribe a prescription product (it can be acid vitamin A derivatives or an antibiotic).

Camouflage and Correct

Boys and girls can hide their pimples with corrective sticks. For any make-up purchase, make sure that the product is labeled non-comedogenic.
