Skin care question? (will pick a best answer)?
I have good skin with no acne. I wash every night and apply a acne cream to my face to prevent this, and I have not had acne in a long time.
I took a trip to Hawaii and I got sun burned bad on my face – leaving my skin very dry. I am moisturizing my skin now with lotion about twice a day. My question is, When do I know when I can go back to using Acne cream on my face? I usually wash it with soap then apply it before bed, but I am worried to due to my skin being sensitive because of the burn. When is it OK to apply it?
I applied lotion and it looks a little better.
When can I start to apply Acne cream again? I am just concerned to because of the burn (which is healing)
Thanks

Best Answer – Chosen by Voters You should wait until your burn has gone away before applying your usual acne cream. Because the skin on your face is very thin and sensitive, and right now putting the cream on top of the burn may irritate your skin more and cause dry/rough skin, leading to break outs. Then the acne cream would have the reverse effect. Continue applying lotion to help your face cool down and until you feel no burn/heat then it is safe to apply your regular acne cream. =]
For dry skin:Avocado, which contains vitamin E, as well as other natural oils, is a great moisturizer for dry skin.Place a ripe avocado, peeled and seeded, in a blender or food processor with four tablespoons of plain yogurt. Blend until smooth. Apply the mixture to your face, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for ten to fifteen minutes, and then rinse your face with warm water.The yogurt will not only hydrate and soften your dry skin, it will also exfoliate your skin, removing dead skin cells.Peel one banana. Place half of it in a bowl. (You can eat the other half.) Mash the banana with a fork. Add four tablespoons of plain yogurt to the banana, and stir the mixture until smooth.

Then best ones include sand in the cream to scrub away dead skin cells and get really smooth skin. all natural. i recommend St. Ives. You can make your own facial scrub by mashing a banana with some milk till creamy. Then when you're done, add white sugar (not powder sugar) and scrub face with it. The banana nourishes skin, the milk adds a healthy glow, and the sugar scrubs.
