Acne Prevention - Exercise
Now for the facts. Let's take a look at how to combat acne. The main strategy
to use is
prevention where possible
and better skincare. Here
are several top issues of
focus for
each: exercise, cosmetics,
diet, hormones, hygiene, medications,
shaving, stress.
1. Exercise - Keeping in shape
can help fight acne by fighting
off negative stress levels
that can come from negative
self-esteem and depression.
However, some safeguards need
to be
in place to ward off acne
that can result from your
workout routines. First watch
which
products you use on your body
because you'll most likely
be sweating. With any sunscreens
for outdoor workout activities
and any make-up or other cosmetics,
check for
"noncomedogenic" and "oil-free"
on the labels to help prevent
pore clogging. And when your
workout is finished, wash
the products off as soon as
possible, especially if you'll
be
going into a steam room or
sauna where your pores will
be opening up more. You don't
want
these lotions and other cosmetics
getting into your pores and
clogging them up, resulting
in
blemishes.
Watch what you put on your
body with regards to clothing,
sports gear and equipment,
too.
For example, tight lycra and
nylon exercise outfits might
look great in the movies and
on
magazine models, but if you
are susceptible to acne problems,
avoid these synthetic fabrics
that tend to trap in body
moisture and heat resulting
in a bacteria frenzy. Instead,
choose
loose clothing made of cotton
or natural blends to allow
more air to get to your skin.
And
when you're finished with
your workout, get out of clothing
wet from perspiration or water
sports. Shower and change
into dry, clean clothing.
And keep your sports gear
and equipment
clean, too. Dirty headgear,
for instance, can irritate
forehead areas prone to acne
problems. So toss headbands
into the washing machine after
workout sessions.
Tip: when cleaning your body
after a workout, no need to
scrub with force and irritate
skin.
If possible, wash with medicated
soap (check for "exfoliant"
on the label) or medicated
wipes from your athletic bag
where showers aren't available.
Tip: and when drying with
a towel, even if it's during
your workout to erase sweat,
always
blot instead of rub. That
way you avoid grinding excess
dead skin, dirt, sweat and
other
chemicals into your pores
and risking pore-clogging
and skin irritation.
