Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles so as many of you probably already experienced having acne sucks I can tell you from personal experience it's an instant confidence killer and having dealt with it myself I know you try to do everything under the Sun to try to solve it and it seems like nothing works the crazy thing is that there's a lot of things that you do on your daily basis that could be causing your acne including the same things that you're doing to try to fight it that's what we're going to cover today the number one culprit that you don't even realize is also your best friend that's right your cell phone think about it we spent hours on this thing putting your greasy fingers typing on it all day you probably take it into your bathroom it falls on the floor then you grab that same dirty phone and put it against your cheek in your chin well guess what all that oil all that bacterial build-up ends up right up press against your skin and that's what could be clogging your pores and causing some of your acne the solution is very simple the number one thing make sure that phone is clean you want to clean your phone at least once a week this is an easy process using antibacterial wipes and second of all obviously a good wash if you think your problem is clogged pores try looking for foaming face washes usually these do a better job of going in there and unclogging your pores and even better if you can get a spin brush it'll do the job ten times better than just your fingers a second thing that could be causing your acne without you realizing it is the hair products you use this is also referred to as pomade acne especially on your forehead and sideburn region a lot of these hair products that are meant to control frizz or keep your hair in place all day have petroleum and oil based products in them to help them achieve what they promote so an easy fix every time you go out and buy a hair product make sure that they are oil free This is the number one thing you want to look at to make sure that that's not what's causing your acne number three is over scrubbing you see when it comes to acne you want to be proactive not reactive and so many times guys will jump on a skincare routine once the problem is like at its worst trying to solve it so when they get a breakout they don't wash their face three to four times a day and this is what's counterproductive over scrubbing and washing your face so much will dry out your face and really just piss off your acne and make it worse and even take it a step further since over washing your face so much will dry out of your face guess what your faces oil production will go into overdrive and you will start producing more oil like crazy and you want to know what's even worse than that over scrubbing your face that bad especially when you have acne will then lead to more permanent problems like acne scars that that's way harder to get rid of the solution well it's quite simple if you do have acne scars I'm going to recommend to you guys the PMD tool I've talked about this before this is a great product if you do suffer from acne scars or very very severe acne the PMD tool essentially is a personal microdermabrasion system how it works is it has a little spinning crystal at the tip that you gently massage across your face this lifts the topical layer of your skin it's a very light and top layer what it does is it jump-starts your collagen production to bring forth a more vibrant and more beautiful layer of skin essentially it's like peeling masks off lightly every week or so until you get your perfect skin that clear skin that everybody wants so if you do suffer from that that's something you can look into I'm going to have the PMD to link down below and this this is pretty effective so effective that people end up paying like 300 bucks to go to their dermatologist to get this process done that's how effective it is the cool thing with the PMD tool is that it's half the price of that and you can use it all the time you don't have to be paying 300 bucks to go into a session because want to check it out I'm going to have them link below with the discount codes since they are a sponsor of our show so it can help you battle some of those acne scars and help you achieve that clear beautiful radiant skin that everybody looks for now that third tip brings it to the fourth cause of your acne and it's actually not using a moisturizer when it comes to acne you want to control oil as much as possible guys tend to think that using a moisturizer will make them more oily reality is not using a moisturizer will do just that you not keeping your face hydrated with a good moisturizer will cause your face to produce oil to help it stay hydrated so if you can use moisturizer every day it's going to cut back some of that oil production and avoid any clogged pores to further cause acne now one little caveat is that you want to make sure that the moisturizer you find is oil free that way it dries matte and it doesn't make you look oily or clogging your pores and finally the fifth and last thing that could be causing your acne is removing facial hair and by this I mean any type of hair removal when you use a razor to line yourself up or shave off your beard or tweeze your eyebrows what happens is especially when you use a razor against your skin you're causing skin irritation and essentially an open wound while it's very subtle and very small you're still cutting a very light piece of skin off what happens is bacteria and dirt gets in there and causes your acne now a solution for this would be to try to avoid shaving your face for example I use a very light shadow all the time if you can do this and you will reduce your chances of infection which can cause acne and that's basically it if you suffer from acne you can try to check those five things off your list and hopefully eliminate some of that acne and getting your confidence back if you guys enjoyed this video and found it informative don't forget to drop us a like down below also don't forget to check out our sponsor PMD I'm going to have them linked down
