Many of us will have experienced having breakouts at some point in our lives. Whether that was the odd annoying one right inbetween our eyebrows, down to the stubborn blackheads on our nose! Either way as I’m sure you will all agree they can become a nuisance and quite painful at times. The question is why do we get them and how do we manage them?
First of all, there are various reasons as to why we get spots. To name a few are diet, hormones, stress, lifestyle factors, excess oil, blocked pores and sweat.
Here are some of my useful tips that may help.
– Cleanse the skin morning and evening with a cleanser to suite your skin type, not wipes!
– Leave them alone! By touching your spots this can lead to more by spreading the bacteria.
– Use Tea Tree oil as soon as you feel one appearing. It is anti-inflammatory, cleanses pores and acts as an antiseptic.
– Keep phones and pillow cases clean.
