body acne


Question Posted Tuesday December 23 2008, 11:16 pm

17/f-- I have acne on my shoulders and chest. What are some products that you have tried that worked? There dosn't seem to be as many prodcuts for body acne than face acne, and they are not really advertised, so I have no idea what to go for. I use Neutrogena for my face and it really works, Its not perfect but its a big improvement, so I tried the Neutrogena body acne wash, and it helped only a little bit. But its normal to have a little acne on your face (for a teenager), plus you can cover that with makeup, but the amount I have on my shoulders is embarrasing. Plus on my face, I have like small pimples/blackheads, but on my chest it is like fairly large pimples which is just discusting. So, what products?? (besides Neutrogena- tried it.)

.. it depends if your skin is oily cuz that's the situation with me. try using a mask. proactiv has a refining mask, just order that and place it on the pimples over night they will become smaller and keep applying it after your shower and soon they will disappear! trust me, it workss.

that's b/c you have dry skin, i have it too but it doesn't show because i moisturize a lot. one important thing though is do NEVER scratch if it itches b/c it makes it worse, instead put lotion on whenever it itches, use 'IMAGE essentials ultran healing for extra dry skin' it works really well, or any baby lotion, or see a doctor and they can recommend what's best for you to use. :)

Hi,
you are not alone. Many teenagers and adult have this problem with acne that also involves the chest, shoulders, and back.
I had it myself when I was a teenage and still have occasional breakouts. I am currently using Proactive. I hear it doesn't work for everyone, but it has worked pretty well for me. They also offer a body wash. It might work for you as well. I think the key is you have to use the wash in conjunction with applying the cream to the affected area as well. I hope it works. Acne is a pain in the a**
Good luck,
Ediemarie
