Tips to help reduce the frequency and intensity of acne flare-ups: 🔹 Wash your face twice daily with a mild cleanser (e.g., Cetaphil). Avoid cleansing towelettes that contain alcohol or acetone. 🔹 Wash skin with warm water instead of hot water and avoid overwashing. 🔹 Rinse skin thoroughly after washing. 🔹 Avoid exfoliants and rough towels. 🔹 Do not pick or squeeze pimples. 🔹 Avoid excessive use of makeup. 🔹 Avoid using irritating products that contain parabens or fragrance. 🔹 Avoid friction (e.g., wearing a sports helmet, musical instrument, etc.). 🔹 Opt for beauty products that are oil-free, non-comedogenic, and non-acnegenic. 🔹 Always use sunscreen that does not clog pores. If the medication used to treat acne contains benzoyl peroxide, apply the sunscreen during the day and the medication at bedtime.

To make putting on your stockings as easy as possible and to maximize their effectiveness, it is recommended that you put them on as soon as you get up in the morning. You may find it easier to wear rubber gloves when putting them on, as they will give you more gripping power.
