SWIP SOME LAPS
Do a lot of swimming during the
non-winter seasons. When you swim, your
body is relaxed, so acne is less likely to
form. Chlorine might help reduce your
acne. However, if you notice your acne is
getting worse, you might be reacting to
chlorine or another chemical.

CLEAN YOUR MOBILE PHONES
Can you believe that an acne breakout
can be caused by a cell phone? Cell
phones collect oil from your face and
hair and then puts it back on your face.
Try cleaning the phone with a cotton ball
dampened with alcohol to keep it away
from these oils. When you are using your
cell phone, do not let it touch your face.
This helps prevent any dirt or oil on the
phone from touching your face.

CONSIDER USING BLEMISH STICKS
Blemish sticks are a wonderful way
to conceal marks on your face. Blemish
sticks allow you to pinpoint blemishes
that you wish to hide. Blemish sticks use
a lighter application to spot conceal irritated
skin.
ALWAYS STAY HYDRATED
Make sure to stay hydrated as a
means to control your acne. Make sure
to keep hydrated daily by drinking plenty
of water. Most people should drink six to
eight glasses each day, at the very least.
This can block pores and cause pimples.
