Tips to help reduce the frequency and intensity of acne flare-ups: 🔹 Wash your face twice daily with a mild cleanser (e.g., Cetaphil). Avoid cleansing towelettes that contain alcohol or acetone. 🔹 Wash skin with warm water instead of hot water and avoid overwashing. 🔹 Rinse skin thoroughly after washing. 🔹 Avoid exfoliants and rough towels. 🔹 Do not pick or squeeze pimples. 🔹 Avoid excessive use of makeup. 🔹 Avoid using irritating products that contain parabens or fragrance. 🔹 Avoid friction (e.g., wearing a sports helmet, musical instrument, etc.). 🔹 Opt for beauty products that are oil-free, non-comedogenic, and non-acnegenic. 🔹 Always use sunscreen that does not clog pores. If the medication used to treat acne contains benzoyl peroxide, apply the sunscreen during the day and the medication at bedtime.
