I sometimes get an email about it: adults with impure skin. No worries, you are certainly not alone if you too suffer from it! And if it's any reassurance: everyone can have a pimple every now and then. But if you continue to suffer from troubled, impure skin, I have some tips for you! An article about real acne in adults, there will also be an article about that in the autumn.
WHERE DO THESE IMPURITIES COME FROM?
Many external factors can trigger impurities. I just think of an unhealthy, unbalanced diet, a lot of sugar, a lot of fast food, ... but of course also stress, pollution, hormonal predisposition, ... Impurities can have many causes and sometimes the fault lies with the person himself, namely: not cleanse the skin sufficiently – or not at all!
WHY CLEANSE THE SKIN?
Whether you wear makeup or not, you really need to cleanse your skin in the evening. I'll be honest: I didn't do it faithfully every night before. Now I do, because I also notice the difference. With or without make-up: your skin becomes impure throughout the day. Washing away the day in the evening is really wonderful for your skin. If you do it the right way, that is!
HOW TO CLEAN BEST?
My best advice ever: gentle cleaning! I see far too many people with impure skin reaching for aggressive cleansers, often containing alcohol, which dry out the skin. You know how it is: drying out the pimples. Wrong !! Because you already suffer from impure skin, your skin is actually irritated and by using overly aggressive cleansers, you will only make it worse and destroy your skin barrier. A mild cleanser that cleans deeply, so no wipes ladies, it will thoroughly cleanse your skin without stripping the skin.
My recommendation? Of course the SELF cleaner ! This is a mild cleanser that you can even use as a double cleanser. Step 1: remove your make-up – that is also possible with the SELF cleanser! Once all your makeup is off, you can cleanse the skin again for an extra deep cleanse. Three times a week you can exfoliate your skin as a second step with our # SELF scrub ! Exfoliating in a gentle, mild way so that you do not overexfoliate the skin is also a must if you suffer from impurities. And of course, hydrate the skin afterwards with the day cream !
You will see: a balanced diet with good habits and enough healthy food + exercise + less stress + good mild cleansing = glowy skin!
