Treating Common Skin Problems
“Finally, benzoyl peroxide is really great as a spot treatment,” says Allen. “Apply it right on the blemish. The reason that it’s so great is it puts oxygen in the skin, and it exposes that blemish-causing bacteria so it literally dies.”
Style Sessions Tip: Sulphur is a great drying agent, and also helps diminish redness that often remains when a blemish heals. “I like a good sulphur mask when I have a breakout,” says Allen. “Then I spot treat with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid at night.”
Skin Issue: Redness & Blotchiness
“Redness is caused because capillaries are extremely close to the surface of the skin, and when we get flushed, the capillaries are expanding and opening allowing more blood to come through,” explains Allen. Therefore, the redness is literally blood near the surface of the skin.
