Impurities – the common skin problem

Skin with impurities benefits from this

To prevent impurities in the long term, a regular skincare routine tailored to individual skin needs is essential. The products should always match your skin type. Thorough yet gentle cleansing and non-comedogenic moisturizers form the foundation of your routine. Additionally, occasional exfoliation with AHAs or BHAs can help remove dead skin cells and keep pores clean. To improve your skin condition in the long term, active ingredients like salicylic acid, niacinamide, and retinoids should be part of your routine. Salicylic acid has anti-inflammatory properties, penetrates deep into the pores, and dissolves excess oil and debris. Niacinamide also reduces excess oil, minimizes large pores, and improves skin tone. Finally, retinoids (Vitamin A) promote skin renewal, smooth skin texture, and prevent clogged pores. Since retinoids and salicylic acid (BHA) make the skin more sensitive to light, daily sun protection is essential.

Don'ts for caring for impure skin

Wrong skincare habits can irritate the skin and even worsen impurities. Excessive or overly aggressive cleansing can throw the skin off balance and lead to increased oil production. Products with high alcohol content or harsh drying ingredients can strongly irritate the skin and cause excessive dryness. Mechanical exfoliation and squeezing pimples should also be avoided, as both can exacerbate impurities and lead to further skin problems like inflammation and scarring. Despite a careful skincare routine, it can be frustrating if the skin doesn’t remain clear consistently. The reason often lies deeper: the best skincare alone isn’t enough if the main cause of impurities isn’t addressed. Impurities are often caused by hormonal fluctuations, poor diet, stress, unsuitable products, or environmental factors. Only by tackling the problem at its root can you enjoy clear and healthy skin in the long run.

Occasional Impurities or Acne?

Not every impurity equates to acne. Occasional impurities are often due to stress, hormonal changes, new or incorrect skincare, or even diet. These impurities are usually easier to treat and don’t require intensive medical measures. Acne is a chronic skin condition that goes beyond mere impurities. In addition to a higher number of pimples, blackheads, papules, and pustules, it is often accompanied by inflammation and can be painful. The causes are usually more complex and can include genetic predisposition. Acne-prone skin requires a more long-term and targeted care approach, supported by active ingredients like salicylic acid, niacinamide, and retinoids. Mild cleansing, regular exfoliation, daily moisturization, and sun protection should also be a fixed part of the skincare routine.
