Acne usually appears on the face, neck, chest, upper back and shoulders. These are the areas of your skin with the largest number of functional oil glands.
Some of the things that will trigger breakouts are: progesterone-dominant birth control pills, some medications for some people, excess stress, iodine found in seafood and supplements and, of course, hormones.
Help keep your skin looking its best by avoiding birth-control pills and seafood – if it is causing your skin to breakout. If you get plenty of rest, exercise regularly, drink plenty of water and eat right – your skin will glow.
