THE BEST WAYS TO ELIMINATE ACNE

Acne tends to be more of a problem during warm-weather months because the sweat glands are more active. The more you sweat, the more the mixture of perspiration and oil spreads on the skin’s surface and clogs pores.

You can fight acne by washing your face more often, especially after working out. If adequate facilities aren’t always available, you can carry a sealed plastic bag, containing cotton balls soaked in astringent.

Another method of minimizing clogging is to use an oil-free sunscreen. Choose one that’s labeled “non-comedogenic” and lists alcohol as one of its main ingredients. Also make sure it is water-resistant.

Secret To Heal Skin Problems

Some skin conditions such as poison ivy or runny eczema can be successfully treated by a starchy bath created by soaking or boiling a potato in water. This bath in “potato water” can dry and smooth wet and blistery skin inflammations, but before using such a remedy, it’s best to consult your doctor. Sometimes, a potato water bath can further irritate dry, itchy skin or fungal infections.
