Are you suffering from
Body acne? or Zits below the neckline? Don't
worry. You are not alone! Lot's of teen get
body acne. It is common in the winter months,
when you are wearing piles of heavy
clothing.
Sweat can clog skin pores and lead to breakouts
all over. Other things that can cause body acne
are tight fitting clothing ( It traps sweat
against the skin, leading to clogged pores and
blemishes) stress and hormones. Body acne
commonly pops up on the chest and
back.
Ø To zap body acne and prevent it from coming
back, you can wash your body daily with a
salicylic acid based cleanser. Look for this
ingredient on product labels.
Ø Shower daily and be sure to shower as soon as
possible anytime you have been sweating - such
as after playing sports, working outside or
just being in the sun. After your shower, you
can follow up by a body moisturizer that
contains Alfa Hydroxy acid. This will exfoliate
skin and help prevent breakouts, without drying
skin out.
Ø At Nighttime you can treat body acne just
like facial acne, by applying an acne zapping
gel or cream at the effected parts.
Ø If your body acne is particularly bad and
wont respond to this treatment after about a
month, you will probably need to see a
dermatologist.
