Are your teenagers dealing with skin issues? Are you looking for simple skin care solutions? Use these skin care tips as guidelines for clear, clean complexions.
Establish a regular skin care program. It's important to wash in the morning and night, but you really shouldn't wash more than that. Too much washing (especially if you're using harsh soaps) will make your skin dry out and crack. Invest in a gentle cleanser, and never use soap.
Next use an exfoliating scrub to remove dead skin. You can make a homemade scrub by taking three uncoated aspirin tablets and putting them in a small container with half a tablespoon of water. Crush it up with a spoon, mixing in the water. Then stir in a couple tablespoons of honey. Use this to scrub your forehead, nose, and chin area. Rinse after scrubbing.
Use moisturizer every morning and evening. Use a moisturizer with salicylic acid to prevent additional breakouts. Don't be afraid of moisturizer; just buy an oil-free version. The worst problem is to let your skin dry out, because then your oil glands will work overtime to produce oil to make up for the dryness.
Stay away from cream makeup and liquid foundation if you have severe acne. Instead look for mineral powder make up, and use it very sparingly.
If you have persistent blackheads, pay for a professional, thorough extraction. Try not to bother blackheads at home, but if you must, wash your hands and face well and be very gentle. Try not to break the skin as you coax the blackheads out. It’s worth it to pay a professional once in a while so you won’t do serious damage to your skin that may result in scarring.
The small time investment will help you have glowing skin. Don't ignore your skin; problems can flare up quickly when skin gets irritated.
