Skincare, habits and mechanical acne

Over-cleansing backfires
Cleansing too much, or with harsh products, damages the skin barrier. It reacts by producing… more sebum. A gentle cleanse twice a day is plenty.
Products that clog
Some products are comedogenic: they clog pores. Heavy creams, oils, certain makeup. Looking for the "non-comedogenic" label helps.
Mechanical acne
Repeated friction creates breakouts: phone against the cheek, mask, helmet, dirty pillowcase, fingers touching the face. Easy habits to adjust once you spot them.
