Look for a cleanser that contains products such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, alpha hydroxy acid, or sulfur since these effectively shrink blemishes. Aim to wash your face in the morning and again before you go to bed. Splash your face with warm water to open your pores so you can clean them better. Apply a facial cleanser using circular motions to break apart dirt and oil stuck in your skin. Rinse your face with warm water before patting it dry with a towel.  Don’t wash your face more than twice a day since it may make your acne worse. Steer clear from cleansers or moisturizers containing natural oils because they could get trapped in your skin and lead to acne. Oil and dirt build up on your hands throughout the day, so wash your hands before you touch your face if you need to. Keep other items, such as phones or helmet straps, off of your face as well since the friction may cause irritation.  If you get acne on your chest or back, try to wear loose-fitting clothing so the fabric doesn’t rub against your skin as much. Try changing your pillowcase every 2–3 days since oils can build up there as well. Picking and scratching at your acne can irritate your skin or cause scarring, so be mindful not to touch your face. Leave your acne alone so it’s able to heal on its own. While it may take a little longer for your blemishes to heal, your skin will stay healthier. Oil-based cosmetics are more likely to clog your pores and cause acne to develop, so do your best to avoid wearing them. Check the labels on the cosmetic products you use to make sure they say “water-based” or “non-comedogenic”, which means they’ll rinse off easily.  Be sure to clean off any cosmetics you’re wearing at the end of the day since they can trap oil and clog your pores. Whenever you finish exercising or doing a strenuous activity, rinse the sweat off your body so you’re less likely to develop acne. Use shampoo and a body wash that contains salicylic acid to help shrink blemishes on your body and clean off sweat.  If you have naturally oily skin or hair, try to bathe every day using shampoo and soap. If you’re not able to shower right away, try to clean off your face or acne-prone areas with a damp cloth or baby wipe.
