Clear skin is a result of skin being hydrated consistently. Most acne treatments have benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid that strips the skin of its oils and makes it very dry. This makes the skin prone to more acne breakouts damaging your skin even more with scars. In order to put an end to this unhealthy cycle of acne, use non-drying acne treatments that moisturise the skin, which will help repair damaged tissues and heal tough scars.
