Number one thing we must all remember is NOT TO PICK at our blemishes, although it is human nature and we all do it. Picking at acne is a sure way to instigate scarring on your skin and can stay there for the rest of your life!

Always use three steps for keeping skin fresh and balanced:

• cleanse
• tone
• moisturize

If you have acne-prone skin, use a cleanser that is gel based and has no alcohol. Next, use a spray toner or try a little toner on a cotton ball and wipe up and outwards on your face and neck. Once more, use a toner that is ALCOHOL-FREE! When looking for a moisturizer for acne-prone skin, look for a gel base or lotion (not a cream) and make sure there is no alcohol. Alcohol merely dries your skin out and ruins your skins Ph-level. You may choose to try to find a moisturizer with AHA (Alpha-Hydroxy Acid) to eliminate dead skin cells and assist in preventing further scarring. Begin by using this type of moisturizer once a day for a week and then use twice daily after your skin has had an ability to adjust to the treatment.
