The conditioning agents present in hair conditioners can clog skin pores when they are deposited on your skin through rinsing. If you have an issue with pimples, acne or general build up occuring on your back, try cleansing your skin after you have rinsed the conditioner out of your hair, and not before. Doing so will wash away any potential pore clogging residue from your back.
If you tend to have excess oil buildup on your face or have acneic skin, also consider cleansing your face with your routine cleanser after you’ve rinsed the conditioner from your hair.
Alternatively, you can choose to apply a leave-in conditioner, in a cream or spray formula depending on the texture and condition of your hair. Apply the leave-in conditioner from the middle of the hair strands to the ends, avoiding the forehead and other areas of your face. This is because the conditioning agents present in the leave-in conditioners can leave the same build up/ residue on the skin, which can clog pores on the face and give rise to acne in the same way.
Cream leave-in conditioners work well for drier hair and/or thicker hair strands as they provide extensive moisturization and help to better tame fizziness. However these formulas will weigh down fine hair.
Choose the one that works best for you.
