When it comes to clear and acne free skin, a lot of people over complicate the process. 

The first rule of getting clear skin is to avoid touching your face. Millions of bacteria reside on your hands, this bacteria will fuel acne growth. You have to wash your hands before you touch your face. It's easy to forget this rule and go to rest your head on your hand or itch a scratch. It will take some time to get used to, but make it a habit to always wash your hands beforehand. 

Wash your face twice a day. Try exfoliating your skin, this process takes off the dead and dry skin and leaves your face soft and fresh. By using a deep cleaning exfoliating tool, you can get out all of the dirt and dead skin that imbeds throughout the day. This dirt and dead skin can carry bacteria that causes acne. 

Protect your skin! Remember to always wear sunscreen if you're going to be outside for an extended period of time. The sun can dry out and damage your skin over time. Having your skin exposed to the sun for too long can lead to dry patches and even acne. 

Keep your skin moisturized. When your skin is too dry, acne will start to pop up. Invest in some quality facial lotion that will keep your skin smooth and moisturized  all day. This is especially important if you live in a colder environment during winter months.    

 Drinking water is a simple step that most people overlook. If you're dehydrated, your skin is too. Drinking too little water can lead to patchy, and acne ridden skin. It is recommended that you drink at least 64oz of water every single day. Doing so is often enough to see some positive results in no time! 

If all else fails, try micro-needling! Micro needling has gotten a lot of attention recently, and for good reason. Micro needling rejuvenates your skin and repairs damage and acne scars.
