Your week
YOUR HEALTH
Being an adult is no guarantee against getting a pimple. Some prevention advice from the experts:
• Wash your face every night. Oil, dirt and sweat build up in skin pores and can lead to pimples.
• Exfoliate regularly. Remove dead skin cells at the skin’s outermost surface once or twice a week. Use a low strength glycolic acid or mild facial scrub.
• Buy “non-comedogenic” skin care products, formulated to not block pores and trap in oil. “Water-based” and “oil free” are other good words to look for on labels.
• Touch your face less often. Your hands pick up bacteria and dirt throughout the day – no matter how often you wash up – which you can transfer to skin on your face.
• Control stress. Anxiety increases the hormone cortisol, which in turn triggers sweat glands in your face to produce more oil.
