Pimple Prevention
When you are looking for skin care measures that could prevent pimples, you might want to:
- Practice Clean Skin Habits: Keeping the skin well cleansed will deter the formation of pimples. Using a mild cleanser at the start of your day, in the evening, and before bed is recommended. Avoid scrubbing your skin, which has the potential to make matters worse.
- Keep Your Hands Off: Touching your skin passes extra dirt, oil, bacteria, and grime that can trigger acne and other skin irritations. Also, if you see a pimple start to form, you should refrain from squeezing, pinching, or picking.
- Shave With Caution: The way you shave can also irritate the skin to provoke pimples to form. Depending on your skin sensitivity, you may have to find a balance between electric and safety razors.
- Read All Skin Care Labels: When purchasing skin care products, you should be on the lookout for words, such as “oil-free,” “grease-less,” “hypoallergenic,” and “non-comedogenic”
