Daily Skincare Routine

To clean acne and blackheads effectively, here’s a step-by-step guide using both natural and skincare methods:

🔹 Daily Skincare Routine

1. Gentle Cleanser (2× daily)
   • Use a mild, non-comedogenic cleanser to remove oil, dirt, and bacteria.
   • Look for ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
2. Exfoliate (2–3× per week)
   • Use chemical exfoliants (AHA/BHA) to unclog pores and reduce blackheads.
   • Avoid harsh scrubs — they can worsen acne.
3. Toner (Optional)
   • Use a toner with witch hazel or niacinamide to reduce oil and tighten pores.
4. Treatment
   • Apply acne treatment with:
     • Salicylic acid (clears blackheads)
     • Benzoyl peroxide (kills bacteria)
     • Retinoids (increase skin cell turnover)
5. Moisturizer
   • Use an oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep skin hydrated.
6. Sunscreen (AM only)
   • Use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ to protect your skin and prevent dark marks.

🔹 Natural Remedies (Optional Boosters)

• Clay Mask (1–2× a week)
  Absorbs oil and draws out impurities (try kaolin or bentonite clay).
• Honey + Cinnamon Mask
  Natural antibacterial and soothing effects.
• Green Tea Steam
  Opens pores and helps with oil control.

🔹 Habits to Avoid Acne & Blackheads

• Clean pillowcases and phone screens regularly.
