Having a difficult time getting rid of the micro pimples that line the sides of your nose, mouth or chin? You’re not alone.
Every pore has a sebum gland. Once sebum mixes with dead skin cells and debris, it can create a whitehead-like pimple. These baby whiteheads are more superficial than normal, and commonly happen in the creases of your skin. As the oil collects and sits all day in those creases, the added friction of wearing a mask can easily cause pores to become clogged and irritated.
Here are some tips and treatments to help those problem pores:
Regularly cleanse and exfoliate: Keeping your skin free of debris is half the battle. Thoroughly removing your makeup with a double cleanse (oil cleanser followed by a water cleanser) and making sure to wash around skin creases can make a huge difference.
Benefit from using a Salicylic Acid face wash: Salicylic acid can dissolve the skin debris that clogs pores, ideal for treating whiteheads or blackheads and improving skin tone. Dermaspace Salicylic Acid Face and Body Wash is a great choice.
Treat yourself to an Iderm Facial: Along with many other skin benefits, this facial is great for dislodging impurities, unclogging and tightening your pores, decreasing inflammation and reducing bacterial growth.
Try out a Glycolic Peel add on: Using a professional strength blend of Glycolic, Salicylic and Lactic Acids, this peel helps rid imperfections and impurities with gentle exfoliation.
Don’t forget to Moisturize: It’s important to not skip out on Moisturizer, even if your skin is oily. If your skin is too dry, it can overcompensate by producing more oil- which can make things worse. Dermaspace’s Restoring Moisture Creme, Clarifying Moisturizer and Oil Free Hydrating Fluidare great everyday moisturizers that will leave your skin feeling hydrated without clogging your pores.
