What do you guys think about washing your face? I hear a lot of people who say only do it once or twice per day but I think more is better.
It's the oiliness that is causing acne in the first place so as long as you take it off and let your skin breathe more often than not than it can only be better.
It can't cause more acne or sebum production. If that were true than we would never have too much oil in the first place.
Of course at night you can't wash your face much but that's when you use a topical which is drying anyway.
I wash my face once a day with a gentle cleanser. (Twice a day, if I've been in a very dirty environment, which sometimes happens to me where I work.) And I exfoliate once a day. Those two things have been the key to controlling my acne. My skin still gets oily, but the gentle cleaning and exfoliating works. And, I figure, the oiliness of my skin is actually a good thing, as it helps keep the wrinkles away. Why would I want to get rid of that?
Thanks for responding!!
Butdon't know guys I truly think there is nothing wrong with a good old h20 rinse. Sometimes I just feel and look too greasy and I hate it. I feel it causes my acne and I must get rid of it. It does not cause more oil or acne for me. I truly believe it helps me. And I don't look like a greaseball.
