To fight against pimples and acne, all you have to do is follow very simple rules on a daily basis:

  • Wash your face with a neutral pH soap. If you don't have soap, you can also use micellar water morning and evening which will allow you to cleanse your skin thoroughly, as if you were doing a little daily scrub.

  • Preferably use unscented soaps.

  • Exfoliate your face at least once a week. This will remove any dead skin cells.

  • If you use makeup for men, you will have to remove makeup from your skin before going to bed. Because it is during the night that the production of sebum is the most important, it is therefore necessary to go to bed with perfectly clean skin.

But you will also have to change your mode of consumption a little:

  • you will have to avoid eating fatty foods, such as charcuterie

  • you will also have to reduce your alcohol consumption if this is the case.

In any case, if you have pimples on your skin, it is necessary to leave them alone. Above all, do not touch them, nor pierce or scratch them. This will prevent pimples from scattering on the face, getting infections and traces of pimples on the face. Indeed, your nails are full of bacteria that could infect the small wound created.
