Creating a skincare routine that works for you is not easy, particularly when you deal with acne. While your ultimate goal is to find products that can treat and heal acne, in that discovery process, you may find it can get worse before it gets better, especially when you cycle through so many different types of products. Needless to say, a skincare routine for acne-prone skin can be a lot of trial and error. (TBH, mostly error for me.)
Of course, it also doesn’t help that whenever a new season rolls around, you may have to overhaul the entire routine you thought you finally perfected to work with the change in temperature. In the colder months, that can mean adding in a thicker moisturizer to protect your skin from winter's dryness and wind, and in the summer, that means losing some of those hydrating products that you accumulated during the cold.
If you have acne-prone skin and you’re not sure how to adjust your skincare routine when a heat wave comes through, I’ve got your back. I consulted a dermatologist to settle on some of the best types of skincare products to use if you deal with acne — and even better, they’ll cut your routine down significantly.
