Skincare Saturday Spotlight- Spot Fix

It's prom season and no one likes to have spots for their big day. Unfortunately teenagers often suffer from breakouts because of all the hormones surging through their system. The androgen hormone causes oil glands to grow and produce more sebum. With overactive hormones and oil production pores can become clogged and cause spots. 

The best way to help keep skin clear is to look after it by cleansing, exfoliating, toning and moisturising. By cleansing and exfoliating daily it can help unclog pores and prevent bacteria from building up. Toning helps to purify and refresh the skin, and a lightweight moisturiser helps to regulate and protect the skin. 

It's best to use a product range that is suited to teen skins and is ph balanced. If you're using a product that stings, burns or dries your skin out- it is not good for your skin and will make it produce more oil. 

Clear Start by Dermalogica is a Skincare range developed especially for teenagers!  They also have a 'zit zapper' called Emergency Spot Fix (£16.00) that you apply to the spot as soon as it appears and it kills the bacteria causing the breakout! 

A cosmopolitan favourite! Start looking after your skin today & help combat breakouts.
