Best Soap For Acne
When shopping for acne soap, make sure it contains ingredients like salicylic acid that can help to dry out oily skin. Medicated soaps won't just clean your skin, they'll also deliver powerful medication to the areas of your neck and face where acne is present. Use soaps that don't have any oil in them, or else you could clog your pores and make the acne worse. Stay away from cleansers that dry out your skin too much or else they could make the condition worse also, but you also do not want them to be overly hydrating as hydrating soaps and cleansers could feed the acne, and are not always that best choices for oily skin which is more prone to acne at times. Keep in mind if you have sensitive skin that some of the regular ingredients in acne soap may be harsh on your skin so you might have to try several brands until you find the soap that works for you. CVS offers many acne bar soaps like Neutrogena Glycerin Facial Cleansing Bar for Acne Prone Skin or Shea Moisture African Black Soap. Or acne cleansers might work better for you from brands like CeraVe or La Roche Pose.
Acne Soap Types
Acne soap and acne wash comes in a variety of different formulas that are based on your unique preference. Bar soaps are a popular choice as well as gel cleansers that come in a tube or pump bottle. Foaming cleansers create a nice lather and will help you get the soap deep into the crevices of the face to really help clean your pores. Some acne soap is made to cleanse both your face and body so you can use it in the shower. Always read the label of the soap you choose to make sure you're following the directions carefully. Wash your face with bar soap or cleansers once a day until you decide if it will work with your skin type, then increase use to twice per day.
How to Use Acne Soap
For best results, wash your face with the acne soap once in the morning, and once at night. Always remove makeup before going to bed so your skin can breathe and your pores will stay clear while you sleep. When you use the soap, lather it with your fingers in a gentle, circular motion. Rinse the cleanser clean with lukewarm water. Avoid using extremely hot water since it can dry out your skin and cause irritation especially to acne prone skin. Dry your face by patting it with a clean towel, and never rub your skin. With regular use, you can get clearer, cleaner skin with help from acne soap.
