  3. Use alcohol-free toner with salicylic or glycolic acid to remove excess oil/bacteria.
  4. Moisturize daily with oil-free, non-comedogenic product.
  5. Don't touch your face – spreads bacteria.
  6. Change pillowcase frequently to reduce bacterial transfer.
  7. Eat skin-healthy diet: Fruits, vegetables, whole grains; limit processed sugar, unhealthy fats, caffeine.
