Our skin is one of the most sensitive organs of our body. It gets affected by everything, from weather conditions to our diet.

People spend thousands on expensive skincare products to get rid of their skin issues and look good. There are even medical treatments and cosmetic procedures available now to help people look younger. But not only are these treatments highly expensive, they are often very risky as well and come with a long list of do’s and don’ts.

So, what’s the solution? The solution is to turn to a right skincare routine. Here is a 10-step beauty routine that aims at solving most skincare problems.

Without much ado, let’s have a look at eight skin problems that can be controlled with right skincare.

1. Acne

Acne is one of the most common skin problems out there. In fact, it is believed that 9 out of 10 people will have some sort of acne at least once in a lifetime. While it is more common among teenagers, it can be seen among older men and women as well.

Acne can ruin a person’s look and destroy the skin. It is caused due to several issues, from poor skin hygiene to poor diet to hormonal changes. In some cases, acne disappears on its own, but in some cases one may need external help, and this is when skincare comes into play.

It is not only about reducing acne, but it is about preventing it. If you follow a good skincare, you can prevent an acne breakout. Make sure to keep your skin hydrated at all hours and not let oil and dirt accumulate on it.

You should use products that are made specifically for acne prone skin so that you can prevent a breakout. Look for products containing salicyclic acid, glycolic acid, benzoyl peroxide, tea tree oil, kaolin clay etc. to prevent and control acne.

Makeup can also cause acne to worsen. If you have this problem, make sure to wear less makeup and to remove it as soon as possible. Also be wary of products containing mineral oil, petroleum jelly, silicones etc. to cause or worsen acne prone skin.

2. Acne Marks

Acne marks are a result of acne. If you can prevent acne you will not have acne marks. However, if you already have acne marks, you can remove them by using products designed to remove acne marks. These products usually contain tea tree oil, mandelic acid or vitamin E. These are not only helpful in removing acne, but also help get rid of acne marks.

However, the easiest solution is to not rub or touch your acne. You only make it worse by doing so. Let it disappear on its own.

3. Wrinkles

Wrinkles typically appear in late 40s, but many youngsters also have them. They are a sign of aging and can be reversed by using anti aging products. Best ingredients to look for in anti aging products include retinol, hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, antioxidants and peptides.

They typically appear on the forehead, the neck and under the eyes and can add years to your look.

4. Eyebags

Eye bags usually appear due to a lack of sleep and weakness, but can be controlled with the right skincare routine.

If you have this problem, you should try to sleep on time and for seven to eight hours and use products containing green tea, vitamin K, caffeine, arnica etc. specially designed to reduce eye bags. They can make a person look dull and weak. It will be awhile before they disappear as eye bags can be stubborn, but the right skincare routine can be of help.

Doing nothing but putting cucumbers on your eyes can also help.

5. Dry Skin

This is a problem that most people are born with, but your skin may turn dry overtime. Dry skin can cause rashes and other such problems and can be controlled by using moisturizers and keeping your skin hydrated at all hours.

Rich emollients, natural oils, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E etc. are some of the best ingredients to nouish and tackle dry skin.

6. Oily Skin

It is a very common skin type and is home to acne and other skin issues. To prevent oily skin, you must make sure to use products that help clean dirt and oil off the skin and keep your skin dried.

You must also not let any dirt or accumulate on your skin as it might cause you to get acne and other skin problems.

7. Blackheads

Blackheads are common and can be removed by using different homemade masks.  You may even use some OTC strips to get of blackheads, however in some cases they may grow very big and need to be surgically removed, leaving a big hole on your skin.

This is why you should not neglect blackheads and must get rid of them ASAP.

8. Whiteheads

Whiteheads are as common as blackheads and equally troublesome. You can reduce whiteheads by cleansing your skin properly.

Follow the right skincare routine and say bye to all these skincare problems. However, in some cases you may need professional help, especially if you have severe skin issues. If that is the scenario, then waste no time and turn to a skin specialist as a lot of these problems can worsen if no proper care is taken.
