@officialpeche: 4 rules I break so I don’t become an acne girl again ↓ I stopped following every skincare “rule” and started paying attention to what actually works for my skin. 1. “Never touch your face.” If I need to, I just make sure my hands are clean. I’m not going to stress about accidentally touching my face. 2. “More products = better skin.” I’d rather have a simple routine that works than 10 products fighting for attention. 3. “If it burns, it’s working.” Nope. I don’t push through irritation just because an active is supposed to be “strong.” 4. “One breakout means I need to change everything.” I don’t panic and throw my entire routine away. I look at what changed first. SAVE THIS: ACNE-FRIENDLY INGREDIENT CHEAT SHEET 📝 For clogged pores / blackheads: → Salicylic acid (BHA) — helps exfoliate inside the pore For inflamed pimples: → Benzoyl peroxide — helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation For post-acne marks: → Azelaic acid — can help with acne + the appearance of dark marks For preventing future breakouts: → Adapalene — a retinoid that helps keep pores from clogging For keeping your skin barrier happy: → Ceramides + glycerin — support hydration and the skin barrier ⚠️ You don’t need all of these at once. Pick based on what you’re actually trying to treat, introduce actives slowly, and don’t pile multiple strong actives together just because TikTok told you to. 📌 SAVE this ingredient cheat sheet for your next skincare shopping trip. ↗️ SEND it to someone who is currently fighting a breakout.
