Canada MedLaser The Truth about Acne - Causes, Cures | Page 6

Wash your face no more than twice daily
Whilst it seems counter-intuitive, washing too much can irritate your condition rather than placate it. Acne is not
caused by dirt on the skin, and whilst you do want to remove makeup and all the other gunk that settles on its surface
throughout the day, there is no reason to obsessively scrub. Instead use a gentle cleanser, preferably containing no
harsh chemicals or alcohol. Look for cleansers with salicylic acid or natural ingredients. Use lukewarm water, rinse
well and pat dry with a clean towel.
