Hey guys! ❤
As a teen I suffered from breakouts regularly and they kept
coming back even though I cleaned my face obsessively and used about 300 types
of spot cream. I couldn’t understand why they kept coming back and just put it down
to hormones. However now that I’m a little older I’ve picked up a few tips that
I wish I would’ve known at the time, so I’m going to share them with you now.
Tip 1
Wash your makeup brushes REGULARLY. You need to get rid of all the bacteria
that grows on the tiny bristles, because if you don’t you will spread it all
over your face (gross) and cause blemishes. You don’t need an expensive brush
cleaner just use a gentle soap or facial cleanser and wash until the water runs
clear.
Tip 2
Know your skin type and buy products that are suitable for it. You will
either have dry, oily or combination skin (if you aren’t sure what type you are
please see my upcoming post). Try to cleanse tone and moisturise at the end of
each day, getting into this will routine will work wonders for your skin.
Tip 3
Change your pillow cases regularly. This is similar to the brushes, if you go
weeks on end putting your face on the same pillow case then bacteria will build
up and cause spots. Also if you have a partner make sure you both have your own
pillow. Such a simple change but it really will make all the difference.
Tip 4
Remove your makeup every night WITHOUT FAIL. I know after a long night out its
easy to say you can’t be bothered and you’ll do it in the morning, but this is
a sure-fire way to cause breakouts. Even if you give it a once over with a face
wipe (avoid ones with strong chemicals) it is better than leaving it
completely.
That’s all for now, I may do a part two in the future as
there’s other beauty tips I have in mind. Please let me know if you have any
questions or comments. I hope you found this useful and enjoyed reading it as
much as I enjoyed writing it. See you next time!
Love from Lily xxxx
