That internal grain that ruins the Greek profile sculpted by the gods that you have been given at birth. Yes readers, we know how annoying it can be to have a pimple on our face. However, today we will not talk about any type of pimple, but rather, we will focus on the bulging reddish pimples that do not have a central white dot (Those that have that white dot in the center are pimples). This type of pimples is known as “Internal Grain”, also called Papules. They are one of the main ways in which acne is externalized. These grains commonly appear as infiltrations located under the skin and that generate some pain if they are pressed. Their main characteristic is that they are not as accessible as blackheads and therefore cost more to remove. In any case, their appearances mean subtracting beauty points from our face. So, it is normal that we want to get rid of these impurities as soon as possible. However, removing them is not as easy as pressing them with your fingers and that’s it. The truth is that if you want to remove it without leaving marks on the skin, you must follow certain instructions. That way you can get rid of them and without leaving any kind of trace of their existence on your face.

It is important that you reduce the use of soaps that have harsh chemical components or fragrances. Once you have the indicated lotion at your disposal, you should wash your face with it about twice a day (in the morning and at night) do it gently and with plenty of warm or cold water, do not wash with hot water since it can dry out the skin.
