Getting and keeping clear looking skin is easier than you think. Pick up these healthy habits to help banish breakouts.

1.         Wash your face twice a day.

Both over-washing and under-washing can spell trouble for your skin. So what’s the magic number? Usually, cleansing just twice a day.

2.         Get clean after a workout.

Exercise is good not just for your body but for your skin, too, since it can improve circulation. Just don’t forget to shower and wash your face after a good workout, so bacteria and dead skin cells don’t clog your pores. 

3.         Keep your skin’s pH levels balanced by using a toner

Well-formulated toners can smooth, soften, and calm skin, while removing the last traces of makeup. Toners with salicylic acid, like the CLEAN & CLEAR^® Deep Cleaning Astringent, also help fight and prevent acne/blackheads.

4.         Use an oil-free moisturizer

Moisturizers help prevent your skin from drying out, which can cause more oil to be produced. Look for lightweight, oil-free products that won't clog pores. Check out the CLEAN & CLEAR^® MORNING BURST^® HYDRATING GEL MOISTURIZER.

5.         Don’t skip the sunscreen.

The sun’s UV rays dry out your skin, so your body reacts by producing more oil. And you know what more oil means. More importantly, exposure to the sun’s UV rays can cause skin cancer.  So do yourself a huge favour and never leave the house without sunscreen. Just make sure it’s oil-free!
