What You Need To Know About Management of Common Skin Conditions 

Practicing an excellent skincare routine can go a long way toward managing skin conditions and preventing breakouts. Remember to:

• Cleanse your skin at least twice each day, using mild cleansers, not soap
• Apply moisturizer containing sunscreen every day to help prevent sunburn and sun damage and to avoid dry skin
• Protect your skin when you are exposed to sun, wind, and cold temperatures
• Use non-comedogenic products to help prevent clogged pores and acne

For common skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, and rashes that itch, you can apply lotions or creams, including corticosteroids and antihistamines, to reduce itch. Common skin conditions often have triggers, which can make symptoms worse. It’s best to avoid these triggers whenever possible. Some of the most common triggers include:

• Stress and caffeine
• Smoking and alcohol
• Sun and wind exposure
• Abrasive chemicals
• Toxic substances
