This week I was planning on doing some new makeup looks, but due to the state that my face is in, I might have to pass! It all happened so quickly! One morning I wake up looking clean and clear, the next day I wake up looking like the poster child for the pre-proactive commercial picture. Sad. Very sad. I'm sure it's happened to all of you before, and if it hasn't consider me jealous! Luckily, there are ways to ensure, and speed the healing process, and once again have a zitless face.
Here are a few tips and tricks to get your face looking less like a connect the dots puzzle.
#1. Don't freaking pop or pick! (I neglected this step, someone hit me).
#2. Try not to wear any makeup! (Let the face breathe)!
#3. Do not over-wash your face. (It'll dry out your skin).
#4. When washing the face use warm water (it opens the pores) rinse well with warm water, and then rinse again with cold water. (Cold water closes the pores so no crud can get it).
#5. Did I mention not to pick or pop?
#6. Stay away from greasy foods during a breakout.
#7. Constantly touching the face will worsen the breakout.
#8. Wash your hands and face after mealtimes. (This eliminates any chance of grease and dirt to settle into the pores).
#9. Lastly, don't pick! (It will just make the breakout look like some terrible flesh eating disease, and also could turn into scarring).
If you must wear makeup during a breakout, don't go too crazy with the cover up. Add a light application to the face, and then cover any redness with just a dab of concealer, and a light dusting of finishing powder. As soon as your day is over make sure to wash your face really well.
Hopefully this can help you get a nice clear face, and if you already have one perhaps a couple of these tips can help you keep it!
