But even if the skin on the face is normal or dry, there is still no guarantee against the appearance of acne. In especially severe cases, treatment by specialists (dermatologists or cosmetologists) is necessary, and milder forms of acne can be completely eliminated at home. Cleansing the face of acne is not only a hygienic procedure, but also a therapeutic one. And, of course, such a nuisance as acne should be prevented. Let's find out what measures will help with this, and how to cleanse your face at home.

Preventive measures

Agree that it is easier to prevent acne than to get rid of it. Therefore, try to follow the following rules:

Eat foods rich in vitamin A: dill and parsley, sorrel and spinach, cheese and milk, liver and eggs.

Stick to the water-saturated diet. Such a diet is the best system for purification from acne, although the effect produced by water is often underestimated. Water hydrates promote skin rejuvenation. Water also helps to eliminate unwanted toxins, the appearance of which contribute to acne. For a healthy color and a person's condition, you need to drink about seven glasses of water each day.

Start eating low-fat, low-caloriefood, which helps to lower the hormonal imbalance and will be able to normalize the work of sweat glands. And even if you have acne, such a diet will reduce them. Eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible every day: fiber and vegetable fibers also help prevent the appearance of acne.

Change the pillowcase on pillows every two days -The pillowcase accumulates sweat and dirt from the face and hair, while the person is asleep. Therefore, experts strongly recommend changing pillow cases in two days.

Go to the bath. Sauna - a great way to clean the face of acne and rid the body of toxins, as steam opens the pores and promotes the natural cleansing of the skin.

Acne remedies are not necessarylook in the drugstore. Although there are many useful things in the drugstore - for example, tea tree oil perfectly fights microbes and bacteria, which contribute to the occurrence of acne. A big plus of tea tree oil is that it has no side effects when used. Among home remedies for acne, honey should also be mentioned, from which you can make a mask once a week. Honey is an excellent antibacterial and healing agent, in addition, it smoothes the skin and adds gloss to it. Use all available methods of cleansing the body of toxins and harmful substances, and this will help you prevent the occurrence of acne and even get rid of it. If special measures do not help you at all, or help weakly, then try a procedure such as facial cleansing at home.

Cleaning the face from acne

Facial cleansing can be gentle orquite an aggressive procedure for the skin. Gentle cleansing is a weekly peeling of the skin with special products. It is best to do this procedure once or twice a week, applying soft scrubs or facial peels to the skin. These products contain very fine and very gentle abrasives that exfoliate the top layer of the skin without damaging it. However, if you have a lot of pimples on your face, you should avoid using abrasives. In this case, it is better to give preference to film masks or do kaolin masks (two or three times a week). Kaolin is white clay. It gently exfoliates dead cells and adsorbs sebum, that is, it degreases the skin of the face. Facial cleansing with a steam bath is a more effective procedure. A steam bath expands pores, increases sweating and stimulates the sebaceous glands. For additional disinfection, medicinal herbs are added to the water: chamomile, sage, linden blossom. How should facial cleansing with a steam bath be done? First, brew dry herbs with boiling water (three to four spoons per liter of water). Then, covering your head with a towel, hold your face over the steam for ten to fifteen minutes. After that, blot your skin with a clean towel (preferably cotton) and wipe your face with a three-percent solution of hydrogen peroxide. Now we proceed directly to squeezing out the pimples. To do this, prepare sterile wipes in advance (you can buy them at a pharmacy) and wrap your index fingers in them. Then gently squeeze the base of the pimple with your fingers and squeeze out all its contents. After a steam bath, the skin is cleaned without problems, and ripe pimples are squeezed out very easily. If this does not happen, then the pimple is not ripe yet, and it is too early to squeeze it out. When the cleansing is finished, wipe the skin of the face with calendula tincture, which will narrow the pores. At the end of the procedure, apply an astringent mask based on egg white, lemon juice or cosmetic clay to your face. And remember that facial cleansing is a stressful procedure. Therefore, do it the day before the weekend and if you do not plan to go anywhere. The fact is that immediately after cleansing, your face will look far from blooming.

Precautionary measures

The procedure for cleaning the face from acne is shown farNot for everyone and not always. For example, it cannot be done with rosacea (dilated blood vessels that show through the skin), in the presence of inflamed acne, boils and eczema. And the sterility of the process is also very important. So do not neglect sterile wipes, in extreme cases, treat your hands with alcohol. Otherwise, the cleaning procedure will have the opposite effect: pimples will become inflamed, and there will be even more of them. By the way, too frequent deep cleaning reduces the effectiveness of the procedure and also leads to the appearance of new pimples. Therefore, choose the golden mean. Take better care of your face, follow preventive measures, and do the cleaning no more than once every six weeks.
