Can washing your face actually make get bumps??
I have the same problem. In one of my Microbiology classes I learned that when one washes his/her face too much or with aggressive soaps (those soaps that are not neutral, that is their pH is different from the skin pH) one will develop bumps. The reason for this is that the NORMAL, HARMLESS bacteria that live on your skin 24/7 die out and can no longer protect you from the bad bacteria (the good ones get out of balance). Also, if you are using make-up products be careful because these offer a higly nutritious breeding ground for the bad bacteria. I heard that manufacturers put bactericidal against the bad bacteria in make-up products but that after, say 6 months or so, the bactericidal becomes old and that bottles get so contaminated that it is better to throw them away and buy new, fresh products. This is true for mascara too (can lead to eye infections and such). Pretty gross isn't it... In my opinion it is better not to over-wash the skin. A dermatologist may be able to prescribe some special lotion. If you are planning to get pregnant though inform the doctor because some skin lotions containing ingredients such as retinol which are absorbed through the skin and SHOULD NOT be used during pregnancy since it is deleterious during fetal development. Hope this helps.
Reply:Find an all natural soap there may be chemicals in the soap you use that causes that.
Reply:yup. you are stripping the natural oils out of your skin . Its begging for hydration. Best products for skin is with a company that I found. They forbid advertising so all I can do is offer a way for you to contact me and with an open mind you make up your own mind if you want to try this catalog company http://www.momexecs.com/cgi-bin/team.cgi...
Reply:Sounds like an allergy to Clean and Clear. Try a hypoallergenic cleanser, free of dye, alcohol (acetyl alcohol, etc.) and perfumes.





Or you might like to try a bar of oatmeal soap. It's natural, and it scrubs your skin very effectively.
