I honestly don’t recall cursing anything as much as I have cursed ACNE!! Acne is a real pain in the butt, it is pure evil, never waits for the right time, date or place in fact a pimple will surface on your face right before the event you have been eagerly waiting for. I always picture it giving me an evil grin laugh while I stare at it in the mirror just waiting for me to pop it and well I have to admit most of the time I can't resist but to squeeze every last bit of pus out pretty much looking like Christian Bale from the poster of American psycho by the time I am done.
If you have been blessed oh no ‘gifted’ with a clear face you better pray to God everyday thanking him for it however if you're doomed like me keep reading.
Tips:
1: Use a separate face towel: The first thing I did when I first started getting pimples was that I got a separate small sized towel for my face. If you’re using one towel to dry your hands after washing them and dry your face after cleansing it, sadly, you may be putting excess bacteria from your hands onto your face, which can cause acne. I get pimples in the T zone and it's not severe but I still make sure my towel is clean and I wash my face twice a day among other things so a good hygiene is foremost also change your pillowcase atleast once a week.
2: Lighten up on makeup: If you love getting dolled up everyday for work/school or just to feel pretty you probably also need to ease up on makeup specially on your foundation because it tends to clog up pores but then again it depends on the type of foundation you use and on your skin, however its always good to allow your skin to breathe. Make sure you remove all of your makeup properly before you hit your bed or as soon as you don't need to wear it anymore.
