Don’t over scrub your face when cleansing! Tap dry don’t just get a towel and dry your face as this can open spots and make them sore I noticed this quite a while back my spots used to be well sore when I’d just get a towel and rub my face! I cleared it up with a water gel cleanser! And a Moisturizer & Charlotte Tilbury Night Cream! And I do like the Cerave Moisturizer for Very Dry Skin it works wonders ❤️😀 Always Remeber Hot water opens pores, cold closes them 😀💕
