We all know that acne is one of the most embarrassing skin disorders you can suffer from.
Being an ex acne sufferer myself I knew what it was like to wake up each and every morning only to look into a mirror and see a face filled with red blemishes and whiteheads staring back.
I hated it and I bet you do as well but you need to realise that getting clear skin is not as hard as it seems.
You see people are not told the whole truth about getting the pimple free skin they have longed for and that is why they continue to suffer from the skin problem every day.
So many sufferers make the mistake thinking that the more they wash their face the clearer their face will become but this is actually the exact opposite.
When you wash your face multiple times in the day you are actually stripping your skin of its natural surface oils causing your skin to excessively dry.
Now to compensate for this your body begins to produce extra surface oils to cope with the dryness and since there is an excess of these oils they get trapped in the pores of your skin.
This forms what you know as a whitehead and the redness that comes with it is the irritation that has occurred with it.
You should only be washing your face twice a day once in the morning and then once again at night time before bed as this maximises the bacteria killing potential of your cleanser.
Also when choosing a cleanser make sure it is a cream based cleanser that is for sensitive skin as acne is easily irritated.
