Understanding Acne-Prone Skin:

Dealing with acne-prone skin can be challenging, but with the right approach, you can effectively manage breakouts and achieve clearer, healthier skin. Whether you're struggling with occasional blemishes or persistent acne, this comprehensive guide will help you understand the causes of acne and provide practical tips for preventing and treating breakouts.

Acne is a common skin condition characterized by the formation of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed lesions. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria.

Acne-prone skin is more susceptible to breakouts due to factors such as excess oil production, hormonal fluctuations, genetics, and environmental triggers.

The Daily Musts

Tips for Acne-Prone Skin Care:

  1. Gentle Cleansing Without Stripping
    Start your day by cleansing with a BALMS&BARS facial cleansing bar, formulated to remove excess oil and impurities while maintaining your skin’s natural balance. Harsh cleansers can trigger more oil production—stick to gentle, non-drying formulas.

  2. Hydrate with Balancing Face Oils
    Oily and acne-prone skin still needs moisture! Use a lightweight, BALMS&BARS face oil enriched with balancing ingredients like B vitamins, mushroom extract, and niacinamide to regulate sebum, calm inflammation, and prevent clogged pores.

  3. Target & Protect
    Apply a concentrated balm with antibacterial and soothing ingredients, like propolis and probiotics, to support the skin’s microbiome and reinforce the barrier. This helps protect against environmental pollutants and reduce irritation.

  4. Nighttime Renewal
    Double cleanse in the evening with a facial bar to remove dirt, sweat, and excess oil. Follow with a few drops of BALMS&BARS oil to restore moisture overnight without clogging pores. If needed, apply a thin layer of a balancing balm to targeted areas for extra nourishment.
