4 helpful tips to prevent acne breakouts in summers

Increased heat and humidity can lead to acne breakouts during summer. It is often caused by skin inflammation due to clogging of pores by oil and sweat.

Here are some useful tips to prevent acne and pimple breakouts in summers.

Wash your face frequently

Washing your face frequently is essential during summers to prevent excess sebum production, leading to acne. Use a gentle moisturising face wash to keep your skin hydrated.

Use a toner

Use a toner to balance the pH level of your skin. A toner helps rejuvenate your skin, prevents pimples and pimple breakouts and leaves a cooling effect.

Apply sunscreen

Applying sunscreen to your face is essential to prevent skin tan and acne breakouts caused due to pollutants and the harmful UV rays during summers.

Stay hydrated

Consuming an adequate amount of water is essential, especially during summers, as it helps hydrate your skin, detox your body and prevent acne.
