One thing I think we can all relate to is breakouts! Ah, it is the most horrible thing that happens but it happens to the best of us!

Personally, I never had acne as a teenager. But once I hit my twenties, it was breakout central! I was told that it could have been due to stress, or just my body was changing. My dermatologist advised me that it happens to most women and as unfortunate as it is, it is a prime stage of your life so acne is the last thing we want to worry about!

I have a few tricks of my own to fight acne–the first of which I’ll talk about today–so hopefully you will be able to use them too.

The most important way to fight acne for me is make sure to wash my face every single night! No matter how tired I am I must wash my face before I go to bed. Especially if I am wearing makeup, it is vital to get it off my skin.

I use Cetaphil face wash as my primary wash since it is so light and makes your face feel the cleanest possible. I have extremely sensitive skin and Cetaphil has the right dosage for me without making it too dry or too oily and actually helps my complexion.

Some washes can also irritate and make your skin backfire, but many of my own friends with different skin types love Cetaphil as well.

Then I use Ponds moisturizer. It totally makes my skin smooth and happens to be a great primer for makeup as well! I have used so many different moisturizers, and this one has just been the perfect one!
