treatment for hormonal acne?

Question

Ever since I started my period, during my cycle or around the time I start my skin breaks out bad. Recently however it has gotten worse and nearly my entire face is covered in pimples, blackheads, etc. I wash my face everyday and drink plenty water but nothing is working. This issue could also be due to me playing sports right now and sweating a lot. Is there any good products or tips that can help my skin stay clear?

Answer

I strongly agree with the other comment about changing your pillow case regularly, but i wouldn’t necessarily use the products they recommended, mainly because fragrance can really exacerbate acne. I would recommend starting with some simple fragrance free products. The panoxyl face wash i linked is really good for fighting acne. I would recommend a fragrance free noncomedogenic moisturizer to pair with it. My favorite is the neutrogena hydroboost gel CREAM. (make sure you get the gel cream and not the regular gel one because the regular gel one has fragrance.) For spot treatment i recommend hydrocolloid pimple patches. Mighty patch is a good brand, but there are other ones that work just as well that are more inexpensive. Continue to drink plenty of water and was your pillowcase frequently! I hope this helps! :)

Answer

You have to start using day and night face wash. Your pillow case can also cause you to break out a lot more so make sure you start washing at least once a week to every two weeks.
