CLEAN! Wash your face with a gentle, oil- and fragrance-free cleanser; preferably a nondetergent one
labeled pH balanced.
If you have oily skin all over your face, use a cleanser that contains benzoil peroxide or salicylic acid.
Don''''t scrub - irritated skin swells around the pores, which can cause breakouts.
Skip toner unless your face is very oily, otherwise it might dry out the skin.
TREAT! Apply a topical acne
treatment containing benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, or salicylic acid over your entire face, not just where
blemishes have already erupted.
At night, use a drying spot-treatment product and dab oil-free moisturizer on dry areas.
In the morning, apply an oil-free sunscreen gel over the entire face.
