Makeup conceals acne, it doesn't cure it! But you already
knew that, right? Using makeup to conceal acne isn't
difficult, but there are some basic rules that you should
always follow. Your three acne hiding weapons will be a
concealer, a foundation and a finishing powder. Stay away
from the dollar store and use only brand names that you can
trust. Choose only oil-free makeup products that match
your skin tone. Oil-free is the key to success here so read
the labels carefully. You don't want to aggravate your
existing acne problem by layering a fresh coat of oil on
skin that already has too much to begin with. Choose a
hypoallergenic brand while you're at it.
Organic Apple Cider Vinegar swabs and other astringent
cleansers work to remove the oil buildup that may become
blocked in the skin's glands. These products may cause
dryness, itching, and redness, so be sure to use them only
on problem areas.
Acne maybe the scourge of adolescent years, but it can
follow people into middle age and beyond. Acne is really a
catchall term for a variety of symptoms such as pimples,
whiteheads, and blackheads. It's a condition where the
pores of skin become clogged and the person gets inflamed
and non-inflamed lesions.
Stress does not cause acne. Stress is a part of our daily
lives and believe it or not it is not a contributing factor
to the acne residing in your face. Only severe stress
treated by the doctor may cause acne to erupt and then only
as a side effect of the drugs a person may be taking. If
this is the case, consult your doctor immediately.
There are many moisturizers available that are specifically
designed to help with acne such as Cetaphil, Eucerin, and
Neutrogena. Severe acne, or acne that has not responded
well to over the counter products, can be successfully
treated with the knowledge and expertise of a
dermatologist. A dermatologist will consider many things
before suggesting treatment. He will perform a thorough
evaluation of the patient, considering things such as
severity of acne, patient age, lifestyle, and co-existing
conditions. The dermatologist then may suggest a
combination of two or three different therapies for best
treatment.
Some cosmetics irritate the skin and can cause acne by
plugging up your pores on your face. The cosmetics
chemicals that can cause you the most skin and pore
irritation and inflammation are: mineral oil, lanolin,
parabens, propylene, and glycol Look at the label of the
cosmetics you use. You will find that many cosmetics,
soaps, and sunscreens contain these chemicals. Find a
water base make up, not an oil base. Find one that does
not irritate your face and use it sparingly.
There is a wide range of acne skin care treatment products
available on the market. Some can prove very effective,
while others are a waste of money. However, different
treatments work for different people. The first thing to
consider when purchasing an acne skin care treatment
product is what type of skin you have. Most people have a
dry, oily or combined skin. There are very few persons with
a normal skin. Determining your skin type is the first
step. There are a lot of products available for all types
of skin.
