5 Amazing Tips That Can Help You Avoid Acne This Summer And Enjoy Clear And Healthy Skin

The bright and sunny summers are here. Along with floral dresses and yummy ice creams, summers also bring uncomfortable heat and sweat that most of us struggle to cope with. Sweating is essential to maintain the optimum body temperature, but the bacteria that thrive on sweat lead to the blockage of pores, causing breakouts.

This can often induce extreme itching and rashes. But, don't worry guys, as we have some easy tips that will help you avoid acne in the upcoming hot and sweaty summers.

#1. Shower twice a day

Beauty

Irrespective of whether you feel uncomfortably hot or not, with the mercury rising, it is time to start showering twice a day. If you can manage, try thrice too, at least a quick shower. This is the simplest way to keep the bacteria away from the pores of the skin, which otherwise lead to breakouts. This way, you can even control an already existing acne breakout. You must also use an antibacterial soap or shower gel during summers.

#2. Ensure regular exfoliation

Beauty

If you sweat a lot throughout the day, you are more prone to developing body acne. Our bodies shed millions of dead tissue cells every day, which act as food for the microorganisms. This leads to rashes and acne. Also, dust and dirt stick on to the sweat, further blocking the pores. Exfoliation of the whole body ensures that all of these are removed, and the skin can breathe freely. Remember to scrub your body well, two to three times in a week.

#3. Keep the skin dry

Beauty

Some parts of body have a heavy concentration of sweat glands. This includes the forehead, genital area, upper back and arm pits. Keeping these areas dry is critical, if you wish to limit chances of developing body acne. Make sure that you dry the whole body very well each time after you shower. Also, sprinkle a sweat-absorbing and antibacterial powder lightly all over the body. If you have a chronic problem of excessive sweating, you can even consult a dermatologist for the correct powder.

#4. Wear easy-fitting clothes

Beauty

Loose or easy-fitting clothes are ideal to reduce sweat and allow your skin to breathe. Loose clothes also allow sweat to evaporate faster. Better air circulation between your clothes and your body ensures minimum bacterial proliferation, preventing body odour too. Also, loose-fitting clothes rub less against the skin, which reduces the chances of rashes. This is particularly important for those who work out regularly or wear formal clothes for a major part of the day.

#5. Avoid acne-causing foods

Beauty

Summer is not the time to indulge in anything and everything that you find tasty! Lower the intake of foods rich in trans and saturated fats. Fried, spicy and sugary foods are difficult to digest, and can flare-up skin breakouts. Instead, choose lots of fresh fruits and vegetables to have a healthy skin.

So, keep these simple things in mind to enjoy a fresher and healthier summer this year!
