13 Everyday Habits That Are Giving You Acne

Your hormones aren't always to blame -- turns out some of these unconscious habits might be causing your acne

Habit No. 7: Using dirty makeup applicators

Alright, so now that you are diligently checking the labels on all your makeup products for known acne instigators, you need to think about the actual brushes, sponges, and other applicators you use to apply your non-comedogenic makeup.

King points out that your makeup tools are crawling with bacteria and dead skin cells, making them absolute zit factories. Remember to only use a makeup sponge once and clean your brushes once a week with a brush cleanser or shampoo. This will keep them germ free -- and your skin clear.

Ive suffered from adult acne for THE longest. I've been doing the "oil cleansing method" using a hair care oil product that only costs $.99 and I havent had a pimple in the last month. It has a combination of tea tree, castor, sunflower, olive, and vitamin e, and jojoba oils. Works for me. I don't know if soap was drying my face or what have you, but "washing" with oil eliminated my breakouts.

by Pinky5 Sunday, October 21, 2012 at 10:16AM Report as inappropriate

Get rid of "nuts" out of your diet (almonds, peanuts etc) because they form more oil. Use ActivBPO 5% which is Benzoyl Peroxide 5% and advance to 10% if your skin tolerates it. This will remove 90% of all Acne. try it before you spend thousands at the dermatologist. Proactive is also benzoyl peroxide but extremely weak.

Its very major problem for the girls..the main thing for producing acene is Synthetic Shade -- Look for FD&C in the substances record, which indicates the item has artificial color. This can annoy the skin and if it's in your lip keep or impact, it can cause outbreaks around the oral cavity area or on your face.

by shalini23 Wednesday, September 26, 2012 at 01:08AM Report as inappropriate

Some moisturizers exacerbate acne. Sun, despite the warnings, has always been beneficial to my complexion.

I notice that if my hairspray hits my forehead as I am putting the finishing touches on my hair, I will always rinse it off. I've been known to get blemishes from those finishing sprays, spray gels and other hair products alike.

Lets see how many of these things do I do... I touch my face too often, I don't eat as well as I should, I probably don't wash my pillow case enough. I am always worried that I dry my skin out with the products I use but its hard to tell.

I notice at work I am always putting my hand on my face and it is such a bad habit. It is such a hard habit to break and I am a crazy person so I was honestly debating putting on gloves not to transfer the oil to my face. I do drink lots of water and that really helps my acne!

by glenncoco Tuesday, July 3, 2012 at 07:32PM Report as inappropriate

Although I knew all these habits could lead to acne it is nice to have a refresher. Giving up my bad habits and replacing them with new might be a challenge but I will try! Anything is worth not having acne specially when it's summer and I want to crawl out of my skin.

by caligirldotcom Thursday, June 28, 2012 at 07:32AM Report as inappropriate

Makes sense to me. Anything with frgrance makes me breakout so I stear clear of those. When i eat lots of sugars I breakout and I get bumps immediately after tanning outdoors.

by KelseaT Tuesday, June 26, 2012 at 09:03PM Report as inappropriate

I didn't realize that there were so many factors! I am trying to find out what is going on with my skin! This at least gives me some idea!

by CCochran Friday, June 22, 2012 at 11:47AM Report as inappropriate

Great advice! I didn't realize that because my phone is a touch screen, it probably has all kinds of germs and oils so I wipe it down regularly and use speaker phone or headphones. I stopped using dryer sheets and try not to sleep with my face on the pillow. I also wear a headband and keep my hair pulled back off my face as much as possible.

by RoleModel Tuesday, June 19, 2012 at 04:54PM Report as inappropriate

by lovemuffin Friday, June 15, 2012 at 10:07AM Report as inappropriate

Good advice. I found that finding a good moisturizer and a gentle cleanser for day and night has helped clear my acne breakouts. I used to get zits in my T-zone, especially on the sides of my nose and on my chin. I started washing my face several times a day and using harsh products that dried my face out. As a result, my skin produced more oil. Once I did a bit of research, I was able to correct my skin care routine. That's one thing I will say -- Don't get lazy! A skin care routine only works because it is a routine. You really have to keep at it. But once you find the basic routine that works for you, it won't take as long. Mine only takes 5 minutes before bed. Totally worth it for clear skin in the morning!

by crhamilt Tuesday, June 12, 2012 at 09:19PM Report as inappropriate

(pertaining reason 5) I buy this laundry detergent and softener called Meyer's Day Off, it's a really good brand, it doesn't contain that "tallow" stuff, it uses essential oils as softeners and cleansers, and I don't even have to use Spray-n-Wash to get rid of sweat/body-odor. I buy it at Walmart and Target. It's the best stuff ever and it's the only brand that doesn't smell all chemical-y.

by dagmara_blinstrup Sunday, June 10, 2012 at 09:18PM Report as inappropriate

I used to breakout often, it was rare when i didn't have a pimple on my face. I started using the Artistry Essentials 3-step system. It consists of a cleanser, toner and moisturizer. I combine it with a clearnow toner which reaches into the pores and eliminates "bacteria-friendly" acne-producing oil. My skin is very clear now : ) ... If you would like more information you can email me. Thanks : )

Point #1 is especially true - even though some of the products I was buying were labeled "non-comedogenic" or "hypoallergenic", I was still experiencing clogged pores and breakouts. I recently read a list of all the pore-clogging and skin irritation cosmetic ingredients to avoid, and I had to throw out several products from my collection, but at least my skin can rest assured I won't be making the same mistakes :)
