All the things you need to know about body acne and how to get rid of it

Body acne is something we don't talk about too often.

We're all quite comfortable talking about breakouts on our complexions and how to treat them but when it comes to body acne, no one really wants to talk about it.

Caused by excess sebum production, dead skin cells and sweat clogging your pores, body acne appears just like the breakouts we are used to seeing on our faces. As the skin on our backs is quite thick, there is an even higher potential for the pores to become blocked.

Sore and embarrassing for many, body acne is often left untreated when simply steps can be taken to clear the skin and leave your back completely breakout-free. We have chosen a couple of our favourite products for treating and soothing body acne to help you get rid of those breakouts.
