Here are some tips to fight acne (part 2):
1- Omega 3 fatty acids. Whether you take it as a supplement, or add foods like walnuts, avocados, flaxseed oil, and salmon into your diet, you should know that these fats control the production of sebum and there is no end to their benefits.
2- Cleanse twice a day to remove the oils, the dirt, the sweat, the smog, the makeup ... etc.
3- Exfoliate. Use a decent exfoliator once or twice a week to remove the dead layer of skin that can cause clogged pores. Preferably, choose a gentle exfoliator designed for your face and not the body.
4- De-germ your cell phone. Several studies have shown that cell phones are hotbeds for germs. Throughout any given day your phone can be exposed to thousands of bacteria, which spread from your fingers (via texting) to your face (via talking) and vice versa. In addition, the heat produced by your phone can aid in the multiplication of bacteria. Yuck! To keep the germs from landing on your face, wipe the surface of your phone with a little hand sanitizer each day.
5- Style your hair smart. Pomade acne is a common condition characterized by breakouts caused by hair-care products including conditioner, shampoo, gel, and hairspray. This form of acne occurs when the oils from styling products seep into skin, usually around the hairline, and trap acne-causing bacteria in pores. To combat, apply the hair products before you wash your face to wash away any pimple-producing residue.
