how do you clean your face without breaking out?

Answer 1

Soap

Drink plenty of water. (so your pores don't dry up)

Wash your bed sheets no less than once a week. (so that gunk doesn't get on your face)

Answer 2

When you try out a new face washing routine, I think it's normal to break out for a few days. I usually just wash my face with soap and water and then apply a light face lotion. I notice sometimes when I feel like applying face astringent I start to break out, but if you stick with the routine, my face starts to clear up. I read in a magazine that this is normal because your face is getting rid of the impurities and dirt but that in a couple of days your face should get use to it.

Answer 3

I don't have skin that gets very.. zit-y. However, if I use a face wash that has soap in it (sulfates.. look at the ingredients), after a few days I will get a zit or two. So I use St. Ive's Facial cream/make up remover. I pretty much never get zits, but I don't know if this woudl work for someone who has acne. I think the sulfates just make the skin work too hard at trying to replenish it's healthy amount of oil, so it biuld up.

Answer 4

You break out not because of how you wash your face but because of how you dry it. Your pores open up in warm/hot water as you clean them. When you're done you rub your face with a towel and fill them full of gunk. Instead of rubbing your face dry, gently pat it dry.

Answer 5

if you are breaking out because your skin is sensitive to cleansers, I'd try aveeno balancing bar facial cleanser. I had very sensitive skin due to taking medication at one point and this left it soft and smooth. It's hypoallergenic as well.
