Acne is an inflammatory disease that affects all skin types, whether dry, mixed or oily, since its causes range from inheritance, sebum accumulation and stress to factors such as hormonal changes

For this type of skin outbreaks, especially in the acne that appears on the face, there are some habits that you can consider in your routine, such as balancing your diet and avoiding the use of makeup with heavy composition

Furthermore, Dr. Alberto Ruiz Hanzawa, dermatologist at Clínica Ricardo Palma, recommends considering the following factors for the care of your skin against acne:

• Use soaps based on salicylic acid daily
• Use exfoliating soaps once or twice a week, depending on your skin type
• Avoid having hair on the face
• Avoid highly sugary food and refined flour
• Do not pop acne lesions
