Don't you just hate it when your skin acts up?

The oil, the blackhead, the acne. Not to mention the thick skin you'll have to grow when confronted by all the unsolicited skin advice. Ugh, just thinking about it is stressful enough. How. Do. You. Make. It. Go. Away.

To combat acne formation, it's important to adopt a healthy skincare routine. These three simple steps will go a long way in helping to reduce the probability of that pesky acne taking over your face:

Step 1: Always ensure that you cleanse your face thoroughly with an anti-acne facial cleanser to leave your skin’s surface clean and bacteria free. A clean face reduces the probability of acne formation due to clogged pores from dirt, oil, and impurities in your surroundings.

Step 2: Dab an acne treatment lotion on the affected areas. This helps to effectively kill acne-causing bacteria to prevent further formation of pimples.

Step 3: In some cases, pimples may also lead to acne scars, especially after it has dried out. To prevent dark spots/acne scars, apply an anti-pimple mark gel on the affected areas. This will reduce dark spots and lighten acne scars, leaving your face spotless.

By adopting these simple steps, the days of poking and prodding your face to squeeze out those pimples out will be a thing of past!

OXY just released their #OxyfiedFace filter on Facebook. Now you can pop all the pimples and squeeze all the blackheads you want without actually damaging your skin!
