Chest acne? any advice appreciated?



I get zits on my chest, I don't get them on my face (thank goodness) but they are so embarrassing and I have no idea how to get rid of them since they're on my chest. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

  1. Any products you’d use to help pimples on your face, use them on your chest.

    - Panoxil
    - Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment
    - The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil line

    Birth control is another option if you’re desperate. It really helps acne by regulating hormones.

  2. there are special body washes and scrubs you can get which are specifically for acne on your body, and they are widely available from pharmacies and grocery stores, so check them out. another thing that can often irritate chests and backs is conditioner running down them (i mean, imagine if you washed your face with conditioner every day!) when you wash your hair, try and rinse your hair leaning back to avoid products running down your chest. and although this isn’t great for this time of year, getting the sun on your skin can work wonders for acne, so give that a try in the summer months. best of luck!
