================== ARTICLE START ==================

How should people go about acne skin care? This article

enumerates some basic guidelines to go by. For example, you

should clean your skin gently, avoid frequent handling of the

skin, avoid sun tanning, and lastly, women should choose their

cosmetics carefully and men must shave carefully for good acne

skin care.

People with acne may try to stop outbreaks and oil production

by scrubbing their skin and using strong detergent soaps.

However, scrubbing will not help acne skin care; in fact, it

can make the problem worse. Most doctors recommend that people

with acne gently wash their skin with a mild cleanser for acne

skin care, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Patients should ask their doctor or another health professional

for advice on the best type of cleanser to use for acne skin

care. Acne skin care also means washing your skin after heavy

exercise. Patients should wash their face from under the jaw to

the hairline; rough scrubs or pads should not be used. It is

important that patients thoroughly rinse their skin after

washing it. Astringents are not recommended for acne skin care

unless the skin is very oily, and then they should be used only

on oily spots. Doctors also recommend that patients regularly

shampoo their hair as part of acne skin care. Those with oily

hair may want to shampoo it every day for proper acne skin

care.

People who squeeze, pinch, or pick their blemishes risk

developing scars. Acne lesions can form in areas where pressure

is frequently applied to the skin. Frequent rubbing and touching

of skin lesions should be avoided if you take your acne skin

care seriously.

Men who shave and who have acne can try electric and safety

razors to see which is more comfortable for acne skin care. Men

who use a safety razor should use a sharp blade and soften their

beard thoroughly with soap and water before applying shaving

cream. Nicking blemishes can be avoided by shaving lightly and

only when necessary.

A suntan or sunburn that reddens the skin can make blemishes

less visible and make the skin feel drier for a little while.

But the benefits are only temporary and cannot take the place

of proper acne skin care. The sun can seriously damage skin,

promote aging of skin, and cause skin cancer. Furthermore, many

of the medications used to treat acne make a person more prone

to sunburn.

People being treated for acne often need to change some of the

cosmetics they use. Acne skin care demands that all cosmetics,

such as foundation, blush, eye shadow, and moisturizers, should

be oil free. Patients may find it difficult to apply foundation

evenly during the first few weeks of treatment because skin may

be red or scaly, particularly with the use of topical tretinoin

or benzoyl peroxide.

Lip products that contain moisturizers may cause small, open

and closed comedones to form. Hairstyling products that come in

contact with the skin along the hairline can cause burning or

stinging in people with acne. Acne skin care products that are

labeled as noncomedogenic (do not promote the formation of

blemishes) should be used for acne skin care; in some people,

however, even these products may cause acne.
