Your everyday activity, as well as the products that you use, can contribute to acne breakouts. Here is the list:
Travelling – Shift in humidity makes the skin produces more amount of oil that contains bacteria.
Toothpaste – Flouride can result in a rash like that of acne also known as perioral dermatitis
Pillowcase – A mixture of oil, dirt, bacteria and dead skin cells can cause clogging of your pores.
Routine after exercise – Not cleansing your skin post-exercise can enclose oil and dirt on the skin.
Cell phone Bacteria – Bacteria can be built on your phone’s screen as you type, and then get transferred on your face through phone calls.
Picking your pimple – Picking can push some bacteria deeper into the skin.
Hair products – Oil-based hair products can cause clogging of your pores.
Makeup brushes – Not cleaning your brushes regularly will attract dust and residues, which will block your pores when you reuse them.
Sunscreen – Ingredients in sunscreen like shea butter and silicone can also clog your pores.
Spectacles – They cause pressure, friction, and heat to the oil glands that cause excessive oil production.
Skincare switching – Every product does not have the same volume of oil content, which is why multiple usages can cause breakouts.
