Adult Acne Skin Care – Tips For Clearer Skin

Adult acne skin care is a delicate issue because the key to it is to be as minimal as possible. This article will give you advice and guidance on the best skin care treatment you can give to your skin to keep your adult acne at bay and to not aggravate your skin further.

While it is a common belief that dirt and grime causes acne, it is untrue. The only time dirt is a factor is if you are in a job that makes you dirty and mucky – otherwise acne is not caused by dirt clogging your pores. Zits are just inflammations under the skin so no amount of cleaning will get rid of them once they are there.

In fact many people try to fight their skin problems with vigorous skin care routines, however these only make the problem worse. The best thing that anyone can do for their skin is to leave it alone. The more minimal your skin care routine the better.

1. Use a cleanser that is mild or just use water.

You don’t want to use anything to harsh on your face. If you use something too harsh it will irritate and dry your skin. This will trigger the bacteria on your skin to produce more sebum to undo this. When your sebum canals are blocked you get an accumulation of sebum which also irritates the skin and this increases sebum production even further. It is when they are blocked that the bacteria can cause inflammation. So adding a harsh cleanser to your skin care routine will just exacerbate your acne problems.

2. Don’t use moisturiser.

Most moisturisers on the market contain chemicals that attract water which can make your skin retain it. This water retention causes sebum canals to pinch off (i.e. zits) and this is what you want to avoid.

3. Use Oil Instead.

To protect your skin from dehydration and flaking use an oil instead of moisturiser. This is much more effective. All you need is a fingertip of oil – this is enough to spread over your entire face. I have had greatest success with walnut oil and recently coconut oil. I prefer coconut oil because it smells lovely. I bought some unprocessed coconut oil from Ebay and have had great success with it.
