Yes, it's that time again! Another nasty pimple appears just when you really don't need it. Super annoying, as a teenager but also in your twenties you can suffer from this. I'd like to give you some tips that you can really use.
What is a pimple:
Pimples, Acne, Impurities, Spot, it's all in what you want to call it. A pimple is actually an inflammation on the skin. This inflammation is often caused by an inflamed sebaceous gland. Because you have a build-up or inflammation, the pores become clogged and a pimple develops under the skin or above the skin. Pimples can sometimes also be painful or irritating. Pimples on your chin, on your back, stomach or in your neck? With the following tips you can prevent them.
What to do to prevent pimples:
- It is very important that you cleanse your skin twice a day with a cleanser for example. A cleanser ensures that your skin is properly cleaned and impurities are reduced.
- If you have a lot of impurities, you can use a peeling or a scrub 1-2 times a week. This ensures that the pores are less clogged and that the impurities will also decrease. If you have acne, it is wise not to use a scrub.
- After cleansing or scrubbing, you can apply a toner , this often ensures that the pores are reduced, which in turn reduces the chance of pimples.
- If you have an irritated skin, you can apply a calming mask once or twice a week to calm the skin down.
- After this skincare routine you can apply a serum . A serum often ensures that the skin does not get clogged and is also calmed again.
- To add extra care you can apply a serum under your day/night cream . A serum provides extra care or calming of the skin.
- Finally, apply a day cream that is suitable for your skin.
Extra tips!
It is important to know that it is better not to squeeze a pimple. If you do, the chance of an infection is greater and multiple pimples can also develop. And yes, that is difficult and the temptation is great, but your skin will thank you if you do not touch your face too much. Can you really not resist the temptation? Then use a comedone extractor to squeeze out your blackheads.
It is often said that make-up causes pimples, this is certainly not true. It is important that when you apply make-up, you remove it before going to bed with a cleanser, this prevents your pores from becoming clogged. That is exactly what you want to avoid.
In addition to good skin care, it is also very important to drink a lot of water. By drinking a lot of water, your body is purified and this is also better for the skin.
Finally, it is also very important to clean your makeup brushes regularly. There are special cleansers, soaps and gels for cleaning your brushes. You can also use a cleansing mat, for example, so you can clean the brushes even better.
