Washing your face with lukewarm water is generally recommended for managing acne. Hot water can strip the skin of its natural oils and aggravate acne, while cold water may not effectively cleanse the pores. Lukewarm water helps to clean the skin without causing irritation or dryness. It’s essential to use a gentle cleanser suitable for acne-prone skin and follow a consistent skincare routine to manage acne effectively.
