How To Keep Your Camping Face Clear - Continued!!!

I did think about heating up water on the gas stove to wash my face, but it never actually happened. I DID, however, do my skin care routine every morning and every night, otherwise, my follicles would have filled with oil and stretched to size of saucers. Sitting cross legged on my Paco Pad... no tent for privacy... I used lots and lots of my lactic toner on cotton pads to remove the oil and dirt from my face. I kept using it until no more dirt showed on the cotton pad and there was a small pile stacked in front of me. Next, I did all my usual steps, except in the morning I made sure to use a sunscreen that had 18% zinc oxide. During the day, I would wipe my hands off with a "wet wipe" and reapply more sunscreen. There are "wipes" on the market that are especially for the face (Dermalogica) because they have no irritants and are non-comedogenic. A slave to my skin care routine, it's true, but I had no breakouts and no sunburn. My friend, on the other hand, with his tight little tiny pores, didn't wash his face the entire time!!! And his skin looked beautiful!!!
