Adult Acne Skin Care RegimenHaving an adult acne skin care regimen is one of your best defenses against acne. If you want to have healthy skin, you need to learn how skin grows and how to properly take care of your skin.Our skin is constantly renewing itself, which is great news. We have an inner layer of skin and an outer layer of skin. The inner layer of skin, called the dermis, is made up of collagen and elastin fibers. When this layer is properly hydrated, our skin will look younger and be more supple. The outer layer of skin, called the epidermis, is the layer which contains the pigment-producing cells which give our skin its color. The job of this layer is to help slow the rate of moisture loss from the dermis. In a 4-week cycle, the outer later of skin will be exfoliated off and the inner layer of skin will become the outer layer. Pretty amazing stuff, huh!?! So, how should we properly take care of our skin? There are five essential steps:
1. Cleanse - It is important to cleanse in the morning and in the evening, to remove makeup, dirt, and other environmental pollutants. You need to use a product which will cleanse your entire pore. This will help your pores not to get clogged as easily.
 2. Exfoliate - A light exfoliation can be done daily to remove the dead surface cells that can dull the skin and clog your pores. 3. Freshen - Freshen skin daily to tone your skin and refine your pores. This is a very important step for acne-prone skin. The smaller your pores, the less likely they are to get clogged. Also, daily toning will help to remove the extra sebaceous oil which is present on the face of most adults with acne. 4. Moisturize - Moisturize daily for soft, smooth skin. This is even important for people with oily skin. Once the excess oil is removed with steps 1-3, it is important to hydrate your skin with good moisture. If you skip this step, your skin will actually try to hydrate itself and will produce even MORE oil. So don't skip this step! 5. Protect - Be sure to protect your skin from the sun and from environmental damage.
