This is for those of you who get the random breakout and its not hormonal or Acne.
I am an estitician and one of the questions i get the most is
"I just got these random pimples and i don't know why ?"
So what does cause these breakouts ?????
First of all Dirt !!! Dirt and bacteria can live pretty much anywhere and if it get in your pores you have yourself a breakout.
Things to check
1. Coat or scarf - If you notice breakouts around your neck and chin and these are not hormonal it could possibly be from a dirty coat or scarf, just simply wash these more often and the breakouts should clear up.
2. Pillow Case and sheets- sometimes this is the cause of sudden breakouts on your face, if you haven't changed your sheets in a while this is a prime place for pores to get clogged.
3. Dirty Makeup brushes- When i was in college and didn't know that much about skin care i went to get my makep done and told the lady "yeah i just have the same breakouts over and over" She asked me if i used makeup brushes, i told her yes. She then asked how often i cleaned them i looked at her with the deer in the headlights look because i had no idea you were supposed to clean your own makeup brushes. As soon as i got home that night i cleaned them like she said and later that week the breakouts cleared up. Being a makeup artist that story now horrifies me that i didn't know to clean them ha-ha.
4. Touching your face - Have you ever seen people that can't keep their hands off their face, well more then likely these people have breakouts. We touch so much stuff and have so much oil and bacteria on our hands why would you put them all over your once clean face. I wax and always tell people please keep your hands off your newly waxed eyebrows because you can cause irritation and or breakouts. One day i noticed a lady would not stop touching them i asked " do you need more aloe do they sting?" she said no i just like how smooth it is, so i politely asked please stop touching them you will put bacteria back into you pores. She obviously did not listen and came in the next day complaining about the breakout she had. I said sorry but i told you to stop touching your face.
Sometimes if you breakout around your hairline it could be new hair products that you have been using, maybe they are to oily and clog the pores around your forehead and temples.
Another cause of breakouts could be the Makeup you are using, change that and see if it gets any better.
Now again these are not the only causes of breakouts or Acne but they are some of the more common ones.
