Skin tips.?
When looking at face washes, make sure you read what the product says it treats. But honestly, tons of the stuff out there doesn't work.





It also depends on your skin type. If you have tons of acne, the most important thing is to make sure your face is clean. Oil and dirt just makes your pores clog up and causes more acne. Look for face washes specifically for acne. The main ingredient in acne face washes is salicylic acid (just different concentrations of it). Problem w/ salicylic acid is that it tends to dry out your skin so it is essential to lotion your face. Also, if your face is too dry, your skin will over compensate for that and will end up producing even more oil. I personally can't use anything with salicylic acid because it dries my face out way too much even with lotion (but my acne isn't bad anymore). I like using cetaphil's face wash since it is really mild and doesn't have salicylic acid.





I've heard Neutrogena oil free face wash is good. There are face washes w/ lil beads that scrubs your face too. I've used Aveeno Daily Scrub Skin Brightening that is good but not specifically for acne.





When buying lotions make sure it says it's non-comedogenic (won't clog pores). However, even if it does say non-comedogenic, really it means it is "less likely" to clog your pores. Some may and some may not. A good lotion I've found is Eucerin Original Lotion and Eucerin Replenishing lotion. I like Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion too, but it doesn't feel as smooth as Eucerin. Although they aren't specifically made for your face, I find them to work well. Don't buy anything that says "creme" for your face, because it will be extremely thick.





Some people "pop" their pimples. I'm not sure if it really helps, but I personally wouldn't. It can lead to scarring and if you're doing it w/ your hands, you will probably get more dirt in your pores.





Blackheads... really annoying lil stinkers.. There are blackhead strips that you can use. They do seem to work somewhat, but it can damage your skin too. Also, the strips wouldn't be able to get down deep in your pores. If you REAALLY want to get your blackheads out, I heard facials are good.. but expensive.





Toners basically removes any dirt left after you wash your face. You put some on a cotton-ball and rub it on your face. It also closes up your pores after you wash. Toners have some sort of astringent and alcohol. Look for toners with witch hazel (type of astringent). The higher the concentration of alcohol, the more it dries out your face though. So watch out for that. Neutrogena has an alcohol-free toner.





If you were wondering about order: wash your face first, use toner, then moisturize.





Hope this helps! :-)
Reply:Even oily skin needs a moisturizer, but choose a light, watery fluid; this will be enough for your skin. Allow the moisturizer to sink in well and then absorb the excess with a tissue to prevent shine.check out http://tipsfromruby-skincare.blogspot.co...
