Acne Awareness Month: These products will ease your breakouts
June is Acne Awareness Month!
To mark this important month, the team at ASAP Skincare has been highlighting the skin condition, including its effects and how best to treat it.
Acne can affect people of all ages and can range in severity. It is most often seen in teens, but it can often be experienced by adults during pregnancy or menopause.
Acne occurs due to blockages or infections in the pilosebaceous unit (hair follicle and sebaceous gland), and can appear in many different forms – blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, papules, nodules, and cysts.
There are three main underlying issues in the skin that can contribute to acne – thick sebum oil causing blockages in the skin, a buildup of dead skin cells, or an unbalanced pH level in your skin.
To mark Acne Awareness Month, ASAP Skincare has devised four specific products to help improve acne-prone skin.
Their Super B Complex (RRP €82.50) is a multi-functional serum that increases skin hydration, visibly reduces redness, and helps reduce the appearance of pores. Meanwhile, the Daily Exfoliating Facial Scrub (RRP from €27.50) is formulated to dramatically improve the appearance and texture of skin.
Continuing with your skincare routine, ASAP Skincare has designed the Daily Facial Cleanser (RRP from €27.50) to give your skin a deep cleanse every day, leaving your face feeling refreshingly clean and smooth. Lastly, you can apply the Clear Complexion Gel (RRP €44.00) to help clear skin congestion and improve your skin tone.
Alongside a good skincare routine, it is also crucial to implement other changes to help keep acne at bay, such as avoiding squeezing and picking at your skin, changing your pillowcase regularly, eating a good diet, and simply being patient with your skin.
To help improve your skincare routine this Acne Awareness Month, you can purchase ASAP Skincare products online here and in stockists nationwide.
