Acne is something we all get sometimes, but there are some products and simple things that you can do to improve your acne and reduce the frequency of breakouts.

Tips and Tricks for Reducing Acne Breakouts

Tip #1: Do not reapply makeup or touch up your makeup after going outside

The reason that this rule is so important is because the moment you walk outside your home, germs and bacteria from the air will get all over your face and exposed skin; this is why your skin smells bad after you have been outside for hours. Everything from small bugs and mites carried on the wind, to pollen and dust can attach to your skin. When you apply your makeup to unclean skin, you contaminate your makeup, which will reduce how long the makeup will last: the makeup will go bad much faster. Furthermore, every time you use your now contaminated makeup, you will put bacteria on your face that can cause breakouts and rashes.

Tip #2: Do not touch your face

It is a good hygiene habit to avoid touching your face, even when at home. The reason for this is because bacteria like staph can live on many surfaces in your home, from countertops, door handles, to objects that you touch all the time, like your alarm clock, towel, or razor.

“Family members of children who have staph infections are more likely than other people to carry drug-resistant versions of the bacteria, even though they may not have any symptoms of infection, a new study suggests. The researchers looked at 609 family members of 183 children infected with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria and found that 53 percent — all who lived with the infected child — also carried staph bacteria. Between 25 and 30 percent of people in the general population carry staph bacteria, typically in the nose, without symptoms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)…Staph infections spread via close contact and the sharing of certain items, such as towels or razors, which are potential reservoirs of staph bacteria” (Live Science Staff. (2013, May 30). Staph Bacteria in Household Boosts Infection Risk. Live Science).

Tip #3: Never go to bed without washing your face

When you leave bacteria on your face over night, they can absorb into your skin and form colonies of bacteria because your pores open when you sleep. The bacteria that entered through your pores can cause a breakout and skin problems, such as rashes, zits, pimples, or hives.

Tip #4: Check your makeup regularly

Check your makeup regularly to see if it smells off or if it has gone bad. Always check your makeup for color, consistency, and smell changes. Makeup can grow mold, so check for weird black dots or fuzz growing in or on top of your makeup. Applying makeup to your face when it has grown bacteria can lead to many health problems for you, such as pink eye, eye irritation, rashes, and breakouts.

Tip #5: Avoid putting your cell phone directly on your face

Keep your cell phone a small distance away from your face because your cell phone is as contaminated as a public toilet. Most people never clean their cell phones, but it goes outside with them all the time. People place their phones on a variety of surfaces. Phones are constantly dropped on the ground and end up in all kinds of places, so phones can carry a lot of bad bacteria that can easily be transferred to your face.

“A recent study found more than 17,000 bacterial gene copies on the phones of high school students. Scientists at the University of Arizona have found that cell phones carry 10 times more bacteria than most toilet seats” (Abrams, A. (2017, August 23).

Product Recommendations: The 4 Best Skincare Products for Acne

When it comes to your face, I recommend only using natural and organic products in this area. You do not have to go 100% organic, but at least in this area, if nowhere else, it is best to use natural products because you do not have to worry about harmful chemicals in your soap worsening your acne or wreaking havoc on your skin.

Here are a few products that I recommend for people suffering with acne and rashes. These products are natural or organic. I personally use these products everyday, and they have made it so that I rarely ever have breakouts anymore, so I hope that they do the same for you 💛.

Product Recommendation #1: Barbara Frank’s Natural Herbal Lotion

The Natural Herbal Lotion works wonders for serious skin problems like acne, infections, rashes, and rosacea. This product kills germs and bacteria rapidly, and it has many different uses. I use this product for treating cuts and injuries, treating mosquito bites and spider bites, growing my hair out long and thick, killing mites and lice, and reducing the size of pimples. Having this product in your arsenal will greatly reduce and improve breakouts, and boost the overall health of your skin.

Product Recommendation #2: Barbara Frank’s Lympha Cleanse

Use a strong astringent to wash your face. There are a lot of natural and organic soaps on the market, but they disrupt your hormones and they just do not do enough. If the soaps that you are using to wash your face had enough cleaning agents in them, you would not be suffering with acne as much or have breakouts often. Unfortunately, most brands focus more on moisturizing the skin, but you should prioritize cleansing the skin to prevent the growth of germs and bacteria. The reason the Lympha Cleanse is such a great cleaner is because it is strong and contains many natural cleansers. This cleanser also smells amazing!

Product Recommendation #3: Barbara Frank’s Rose Beautifying Cream

I apply the Rose Beautifying Cream to my face every night before bed. This product is an excellent nightly treatment to help smooth out the skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, moisturize the skin, and help clean and regenerate the skin. This product is also available with copper peptides, with hyaluronic acid, and as a sample size.

This is what the Rose Beautifying Cream looks like on the skin; it gives the skin a healthy, smooth, moisturized glow.

I massage Barbara Frank’s Rose Beautifying Cream in a circular motion all over my face every night.

Product Recommendation #4: Exfoliating Facial Products & Scrubs

You should exfoliate your skin regularly. I am going to be honest, and many of you will not agree with what I am about to say, but the truth is that I exfoliate my skin every day. I know that all over the internet people tell you to exfoliate your skin once a week, but think about this for a moment: Every time you wash your body in the shower with a rag or loofah, are you not exfoliating it? So, why would you not do the same for your face, which is far more exposed to the elements, dirt, and bacteria than the rest of your body? We scrub the parts of our body every night that are protected and covered up with clothing. Your face has nothing to protect it during the day, so it is much more prone to breakouts, infection, and being colonized by bacteria. So, it is really important to give your face even more attention than other parts of your body.

To clarify, when I say exfoliate the skin, I do not mean that you must use a facial scrub on it every day. There are many different products that you can use to exfoliate your skin. For example, I like to add a strong astringent to my soap and apply a warm heated cloth to my face every day. Using a face mask or a heated rag or towel will remove dirt and dead skin cells thoroughly; these are not as stripping as face scrubs, and they do more than just washing your face with soap and water would.

Dealing with acne can be emotionally and physically draining, but you can beat it; it just takes time, patience, good hygiene habits, and the right products! Now that you have read this article, you now know what you need to do to start improving your skin today! Best of luck!

Enter the realm of health, wellness, beauty, makeup, and fashion. The world is full of so many different forms of beauty. Every culture has its own unique beauty, but one thing that all of them have in common is that healthy is always beautiful. But health is not constant or instant in life. Health is part of the life journey that we are all on until our time is up.

We all have a unique health journey. My health journey started in college when I studied human health and disease at The University of The District of Columbia. Later, I studied health and psychology at The University of Maryland University College. After college, I continued following medical breakthroughs around the world, from India to the UK. I soon realized that there was so much health knowledge out there, but so few people had access to it. Thus, I turned to writing. My goal is to share valuable health breakthroughs with the world and connect health to beauty and multiculturalism; that is how this site came to life.

Wherever you are in your health and wellness journey, there is always more to learn and there is beauty to be found everywhere in various forms. So, let's walk this path together and discover fully what the realm of health and beauty has to offer!
