Acne is the worst nightmare for any teenager especially for girls. The tricky thing about acne is that we don’t really know how to avoid or how to get rid of acne. We did some research how to reduce acne and have a marks free skin.
Benzoyl peroxide
It is found in most of the face washes and is one of the most effective items to reduce acne. Wash your face once when you wake and once before going to bed. Use a facewash that contains exfoliating particles which will open your skin pores for proper cleansing. This will help keep your skin smooth and soft. If you have acne on other body parts rub them twice with the same cleaner.
Remove makeup
Never forget to remove makeup before going to sleep. Sleeping with makeup on will increase your pimple count and will make it even difficult to get rid of acne. Use an oil free makeup remover before using the regular cleanser to make sure your face is makeup free.
Benzoyl Peroxide gel
The gel is a great way to fight acne, you can purchase the gels from any grocery store or drug mart. Just make sure the benzoyl peroxide percentage is less than 3%, otherwise it might cause skin irritation.
