exposed skin care Resist temptation! Avoid picking at your pimples and do not pop them. Instead, use an acne cream or spot treatment. Picking at acne increases your risk of scars and skin infections. If you pick your skin, discoloration can occur that can take many years to fade.

Stop stressing out over everything. Stress doesn't cause acne by itself, but can exacerbate existing acne.

Changing your linens on your bed can have amazing effects on your acne problems. When you sleep these oils transfer to your sheets and pillow cases. Then, they can make their way back onto your face. If you wash your linens on a regular basis, it will stop this cycle.

Take an ice cube and wrap it in a towel before applying it on your pimple. The cooling effect of ice will take away the redness. In addition, if the pimple is sore or tender, ice can help to reduce the pain. Ice is also preferable to topical solutions, which often contain harsh irritants that may exacerbate acne.

Staying hydrated is a big part of keeping your skin clear. Dehydration leads to dry skin, which results in dead skin clogging pores. When your pores are clogged, your acne will get worse. You should drink eight glasses of water each day to help your skin stay hydrated and lose dead skin cells.

Do not tan or use sunbeds if you have acne. Research has shown that sunlight can actually worsen breakouts. The UV light emitted by sunbeds has the same undesirable effects on acne as natural sunlight. If you are suffering from acne, tanning should be fully avoided.

You should try to find featherless pillows or hypo-allergenic pillows if you are fighting with your acne. Feathers can cause more acne and irritate the marks already on your face. Avoid having your hands rest on your chin in your sleep as this can also cause more blemishes.

Wear weather appropriate clothes made out of natural fibers. For many people, fluctuating humidity levels and temperatures can lead to breakouts. Others are more sensitive to triggers like trapped heat and perspiration caused by different types of clothing. If you wear lightweight clothing on hot days, it will help reduce the physical stress that occurs in the summertime.

Use the herbs from chamomile tea for a wonderful acne remedy. After drinking your nice cup of tea, put the cool tea bag on the area affected. It should reduce the redness and swelling in the affected area.

No matter the length of time you've struggled with acne or your knowledge level, advice is always helpful. The preceding article is intended to better arm you when treating this skin problem. You can have clear, smooth skin. By using this advice, you are one step closer to perfect skin.
