 Get that hot water away from your face, because you're going to make your acne worse. And you're not alone, because 80% of Americans wash their face wrong. Yeah, hot water dries out your face and strips it of natural oils, so as much as it feels good, avoid washing your face in the shower. Also, you can just use your fingers to wash it, just make sure you wash your hands before. And when you're done, pat dry only with a fresh towel or one that you don't use on the rest of your body, unless you want bacteria from your butt on your face. And finally, don't overdo it. Overwashing your face can be just as bad for it as underwashing. And once in the morning and once before bed is usually the sweet spot.
