How to avoid an acne breakout after summer

It is common to notice an improvement in the skin in the summer season, but as soon as it is over, acne breakouts appear. In this post we explain why it happens and give you some tips to avoid them.

To avoid unwanted breakouts, we must first know that acne is a skin lesion as a result of inflammation and infection of the hair follicle . This can be due to several factors such as the glands creating excess sebum, the hair follicles becoming clogged with oil and dead skin cells, bacteria or hormonal disorders.

If you suffer from this condition, you have surely noticed that your skin improves in summer. This happens because our stratum corneum increases in thickness , since it is a means of protection against the sun's rays. This thickening makes the skin improve at first glance, since it The most superficial layer of skin is further away from the hair follicle, which will still be clogged but you will see it later.

In addition to this improvement, it is likely that you will not follow your routine or anti-acne treatment , but remember that these processes are long in time, and that neglecting them can be what affects the most in having an acne outbreak after the summer.

At theCosmethics we have the Mádara Intensive Treatment for Acne, Pores and Imperfections, a roll-on that soothes, prevents and heals pimples thanks to its antibacterial ingredients.

Remember to use facial sun protection , the horny layer of the skin, which we have talked about before, increases in thickness due to exposure to the sun. If we protect our face with high protection creams, that increase will not be so noticeable.

If you are already experiencing an acne breakout, we advise you to use the Preventive Treatment for Pores and Imperfections, a specific product that acts as an antibacterial to prevent and reduce the appearance of acne breakouts. You will have to be constant in its application, every day for six weeks, but the results are spectacular, you will notice it from the first days of application.

Remember that acneic skin is very sensitive, and although a deep exfoliation seems very appropriate to us it is counterproductive, hydrate it with specific creams such as the Antipodes manuka honey and bee venom illuminating day facial cream , the Moisturizing facial cream for combination skin from Matarrania and even oils like Lena Wild 's Harmony Bloom Oil Facial Oil for Combination/Dehydrated Oily Skin .
