- Fact number one. The cosmetic industry makes billions of dollars from the
public quest for great skin. They use the money to advertise and perpetuate
their products. Do not be fooled by the hype.
- Fact number two. There are many factors that contribute to the clogging of
pores: like dehydrated skin, improper cleansing, excessive oil production,
excessive build-up of dead skin cells, hormones, excessive sweating, dirty work
or play environments, genetics, makeup, fingers on the face, allergic reactions,
a diet high in sugar content and many others.
- Fact number three. Most skin impurities are due to clogged pores, so the
best way to have that beautiful skin is to unclog your pores.
- Avoid oil-based products such as facial lotions, wash and cosmetics. Look
for products that are “non-comedogenic,” it means it will not clog your pores.
- Do not wear tight headband, baseball hat, and/or helmet when you exercise or
play sports, and make sure you wash the sweat-soaked things each time you wear
them.
- Keep the skin hydrated and moist so your cells can function properly.
Moisturize your face with mild, non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep it
hydrated. Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount
of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face
after cleansing.
- Cleanse your pores with an alcohol-free toner or skin conditioner on cotton
balls. Do not try to scrub harshly or you will strip and damage your skin. Even
after rinsing your face, if you do not remove the remainder of cleanser and
loosened debris residues, you are only going to imbed that debris deeper into
the pores as you layer serums and moisturizers on top. The absolute best way to
perform this deep pore cleansing is with an alcohol-free toner or skin
conditioner on cotton balls. There's no need to harm your skin by vigorous
scrubbing or harsh acids, simply wipe with toner damp cotton balls until the
last cotton comes away perfectly white.
- Astringents, Salicylic Acid, retinoic acids, and glycolic acids all work to
prevent pores from clogging. Be aware of some active ingredients like benzoyl
peroxide, these ingredients can cause major side effects.
So there, those are ultra easy steps to eliminate or lessen your problem,
start today. Beauty starts with your skin.
