Tweet When my acne was in “full swing” as a teenager starting at about 14, and also in my adulthood into my twenties and late twenties, I mostly broke out on my face, but occasionally, I did notice I would get back acne, and it was very difficult to find a way to get rid of it since it was in a hard-to-reach place. The first important thing is, if you are a woman and you get back acne, make sure you are washing your bras almost every night, if possible. I know this sounds like a pain, as...

Body Acne
Body acne is another serious concern for a lot of people. This can include back acne, and acne on other areas of the body than the face. The back is probably the most common bodily acne, followed by the chest.
Butt Acne
Tweet Yep, you read right “butt acne”. This type of body acne, which occurs in one of the most embarrassing places, your derriere, is actually more common than you think. I’ve actually gotten zits on my butt before, and I’m always mortified when I feel them in the shower, or happen to turn around in the mirror and see a bright red dot on my butt – a clear zit, just gleaming at me defiantly. I used to think acne was just for the face, but apparently acne in indiscriminant, attacking anywhere that is oily, where a pore might...
Summer Acne Skin Care
Tweet It’s that time again. Summer skin care routines should be implemented. The sticky, hot days of summer, with their increased humidity and sun exposure can cause some serious damage to our skin, especially those of us that have acne and sensitive skin. So, what should we do to minimize our chances of sun damage, and also minimize our chances of new breakouts? I’d like to discuss this in depth over the next posts, but unfortunately I’m running low on time right now. I’d like to especially focus on the three big no no’s of summer acne skin care...
Body Acne : Remedies and Treatments
Tweet Body acne is a prevalent problem, but it is generally less-discussed because it is usually not as visible as facial acne is, and is not as common. You see, we have all of our acne-causing oil glands centralized on our face mostly, and although some of these oil glands can cause trouble in other areas, like our backs, they are most likely to cause acne on our faces. I’ve run across a lot of men with back acne, but I can honestly say I don’t know that many women with the back acne problem. Why would this be? ...
Body Acne – What’s Your Best Defense?
Tweet Body acne is one of the most prevalent and embarassing acne problems that exists for many men and women in today’s society. While it may not be as visible as facial acne, it certainly does make you want to “cover up” in the summer months, and be less carefree about what you wear. One of the biggest offenses against your skin that perpetuates bodily acne breakouts is wearing too heavy of clothing when the weather is warm. Overheating and excess sweat and oil production can trigger back acne, chest acne and even neck acne in the blink of...
