A basic routine for acne-prone skin is gentle cleanser, an appropriate acne treatment, moisturizer, and broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning. At night, cleanse, use the chosen treatment as tolerated, and moisturize. Introduce new actives gradually rather than stacking several at once.
Use a non-abrasive cleanser that removes sweat and excess oil without leaving the skin painfully tight. Harsh scrubbing can increase irritation.
Common over-the-counter acne ingredients include salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide. Suitability depends on your skin, other products, pregnancy status, medications, and the type of acne. Follow product directions and professional advice.
Acne treatments can dry or irritate skin. A moisturizer supports the skin barrier and may make consistent treatment easier.
Daily sunscreen helps protect skin, especially when using products that increase sensitivity. Choose a texture you are comfortable applying consistently.
Cleanse gently, apply the selected treatment on its intended schedule, and moisturize. More product is not automatically more effective. If irritation builds, reduce complexity and seek advice.
Check which skincare ingredients need careful combining before layering multiple actives.
