  • Acne doesn't just develop because of dirty skin. Hormones, stress, oil, etc can also cause it. Experiment with different cleansers to find what works best for you.

  • I think it's nomral. Many of us wash our faces everyday, but still get acne. Yes it could be hormones and or diet. I know when I stop eating sugar and refined carbs, my acne goes away.

  • This is what u should do that is more effective than pro-active (according to IIN members and it worked for me too) get otganic olive oil, and baking soda. Put on a coat liberally of olive oil first. Then take baking soda and scrub your back. This works!!! U dont see it advertised on tv like pro-active bcuz nobody is getting rich from this to pay for commercials for this.

  • Don't scrub it! It will only make it worse! Go see a dermatologist! Also don't wear backpacks for a while!
