To prevent pimples along forehead, temples, and jawline consider a few changes to your hair routine.
1. Style your hair before you apply your makeup, then wash your hands thoroughly to remove hair product residue before you touch your face.
2. Some hair products are really stick, so you will need to wash your hands twice.
3. Try not to touch your hair and then your face once you’ve applied styling products, since that will just transfer hair product to your skin.
4. Choose a hairstyle that doesn’t come in contact with your forehead or cheek area. Bangs are known to cause forehead acne.
5. Pull hair away from your face with a ponytail or bun when you sleep.
6. Change out your pillowcase every 2-3 days a week.
7. Use a headband to keep sweat and hair products from running down your face.
8. To be on the safe side, only use approved shampoo, conditioner and leave-on hair products and dry shampoo!
While a product may have been approved in the past, it may no longer be approved because:
-A new pore-clogging ingredient has come to our attention.
-Manufacturers change their formulas
*Sometimes a shampoo may be safe, but not the coordinating conditioning treatment and vise versa
