- on your lower forehead area between your eyebrows,
- on the slope between your eyes,
- or on your cheeks where your sunglasses touch your face,
there might be a simple solution for you to clear it up and prevent it from happening over and over again.
But first, let me ask you a question- when's the last time you washed your sunglasses?
Are your Sunglasses Making Your Skin Breakout?
It might not seem like much, but wearing the same pair of sunglasses day after day (especially if you've been sweating) might be the reason your skin keeps breaking out in those problem areas.
Dirty sunglasses collect sweat and oil, which creates a holding spot for bacteria. Each time you put your dirty sunglasses back on, the bacteria touches and transfers to your skin in the very same places and before you know it, voila! You've got another breakout.
Clear Skin / Clean Sunglasses - How to Prevent Breakouts
- Wash your sunglasses every morning (especially if you sweat) or at least a few times a week if you can't do it every day.
- Use warm water and a dishwashing soap like Dawn to wash away oils and bacteria.
- Wash gently with a soft cloth.
- Rinse your sunglasses thoroughly with warm water, making sure to get all the soap off.
- Dry your sunglasses with a lint-free cloth to prevent your lenses from spotting (give them a little shake to release any excess water hiding in the frames).
Optional: Have more than one pair of sunglasses you like to wear, so you can wear a clean pair as often as possible, inbetween washing.
Who knew the simple solution was staring you right in the face?
I promise, taking the time to wash your sunglasses will make a big difference in helping to reduce breakouts on those areas of your face!
