If you have been struggling with acne prone skin for a long time, a regular acne skin regimen is the best weapon. One of the prime reasons for the breakout of pimples and acne is the presence of excessive oil on your skin secreted from the sebum gland. This blocks the pores on your facial skin, giving rise of pimples along with other related issues like blackheads and whiteheads.

What should be your acne skin care regime?

• Astringents and toners

You must use astringents and toners that contain alpha hydroxyl acid or glycolic acid as they are excellent for toning the face and also eliminating the scars. Moreover, the pore size of your face also reduces and the skin gets exfoliated.

• Moisturizers

While you are undergoing facial treatments for pimples, drying out of the face is evident. You must use moisturizers that are oil free and best for the sensitive skin. Moisturizers with salicylic acid and glycolic acid are preferred as it gives protection to your skin all day long.

• Salicylic acid

It helps in the opening of the pores and also clears your skin from bacteria and dirt. Basically its function is to reduce the cell lining shedding of the follicles of the sebum glands.

• SD Alcohol 40

The excess oil and sebum is the main reason behind the acne breakout. SD Alcohol 40 removes them and ensures that your skin appears to be shiny.

If you carry out the acne treatments with the items mentioned above, there is every possibility that your skin will be less prone to acne breakouts and even gradually it will be under control.
