This is one of the biggest myths about acne. Acne is not caused by dirty skin, it’s a disorder of the skin itself. While good daily hygiene can help ease acne symptoms, over-cleansing the skin can irritate your acne and make it worse.
It’s also important to pay attention to the make-up or skin care products that you use, if you’re allergic to any of the ingredients, it can make your acne worse. That’s why we recommend checking in with a dermatologist to make sure your daily skin regimen isn’t contributing to your breakouts.
