Consistency is key. Getting in for regular skincare treatments is so important. Your daily routine is just as important. Making sure you have a routine that supports your body’s natural skin balance is essential to delaying the aging process. Keeping a healthy balance of oils and good bacteria keeps your skin looking healthy longer.

The first thing I recommend is looking at your diet. Diets rich in fats and oils typically show up first on the skin in the form of an oily, often pimple-ridden complexion. After diet, I recommend a good cleansing routine. Clearing out the pores allows them to more fruitfully rid the skin of oils and keeps them free of blockages. A gentle foaming cleanser is always a great choice for sensitive, oily skin. After that, if there are still problems with excess oil, toners can work wonders to reduce oil on the surface of the skin. And, lastly, I’d recommend a mild, natural moisturizer.

There are many studies coming out about avocado oil and its benefits for the skin. It is rich in vitamins and fatty oils that may help to moisturize the skin and promote healing.

Question

How do I get rid of the acne I already have?

Community Answer

Wash your face nightly, change your pillowcases weekly, and drink plenty of water. Don't pick at or pop your pimples as that could spread them around your face or cause scarring and infection.

Question

Can I use moisturizer to prevent acne and oily skin?

Community Answer

After washing your face, apply a moisturizer that is not oil based. Usually moisturizer itself does not prevent acne or oily skin because it is not a cleanser. It just makes your face softer.
