For many runners, post-run breakouts, often called "runner's acne," can be a frustrating side effect of their passion. Learn how tallow cream can be your unexpected ally in the fight against exercise-induced acne.
Understanding Runner's Acne
- Caused by trapped sweat, bacteria, and dead skin cells
- Exacerbated by friction from clothing and gear
- Can be worsened by touching face with dirty hands during runs
How Tallow Cream Combats Runner's Acne
- Balancing Oil Production:
- Tallow's composition is similar to our skin's natural sebum, helping to regulate oil production.
- Skinfuel's Performance Tallow Cream can help prevent both excess oiliness and dryness, which can trigger breakouts.
- Non-Comedogenic Moisturization:
- Unlike many heavy creams, tallow doesn't clog pores.
- Provides necessary hydration without contributing to acne formation.
- Anti-Inflammatory Properties:
- Helps reduce redness and inflammation associated with acne.
- Contains natural compounds that can soothe irritated skin.
- Barrier Support:
- Strengthens the skin's natural barrier, helping to protect against acne-causing bacteria.
- Supports overall skin health, making it more resilient against breakouts.
