6 Tips To Take Care Of Acne Prone Skin In Spring, Expert Weighs In

People with sensitive skin often have issues with the arrival of spring, including allergic reactions, rashes, pimples, and acne. Seasonal changes, air pollution, and pollen in the atmosphere could be to blame. The skin is one of the first body organs to be affected by strong skin irritants, which can result in issues like skin sensitivity, rash, allergic or irritative reactions, breakouts like acne, and other issues.

Applying blemish-busting solutions is only one aspect of caring for skin that is prone to breakouts. It may also involve a change in lifestyle or maybe a new and better skincare regimen. As winter gives way to spring, our skin is exposed less to the chilly, dry air and more to the humid air, warmer temperatures, and more sunlight. Sweating and more oil on your skin's surface might increase acne flare-ups if you are prone to them.

• Many natural ingredients have an astringent effect and help to close pores and thus help acne-prone skin. Green tea is a good astringent toner. Soak green tea leaves or a tea bag in hot water for half an hour. Cool, strain and apply the liquid on the skin.

• Sandalwood paste can be applied in eruptive conditions. Or, mix sandalwood with a little rose water and apply it to the entire area. Wash off with plain water after 20 to 30 minutes.
• Add two drops of tea tree oil to two tablespoons of water or rose water. Apply this on rash and eruptive conditions.
• Apple cider vinegar helps to relieve itching. It also has antiseptic and antifungal properties. A few drops can be dabbed on the area with itching, using cotton wool.
