Just when you have the blemishes on your face under control, your back decides to take its turn. Will we ever win?! Not to worry, we’re here to tell you exactly how to handle your bacne and what causes it.
Breakouts on your back are largely due to the pores getting clogged from either sweat or a skin irritation to your current shower products. Something to keep in mind when you’re showering is to wash your body last after you’ve washed your hair. This will ensure that you remove any leftover product that may still be sitting on your skin. In terms of body wash, you should consider our TrueCider Shampoo & Body Wash. This body wash is specifically designed to help your skin clear away all of the sweat cleaning your pores while also acidifying the skin barrier’s pH. This allows your skin to keep itself clean and clear. In terms of a moisturizer, make sure to not use anything oil based as this could clog your pores. Instead, try our TrueLipids Hydrating Lotion.
Treating bacne is not just limited to cleansers and cleaning routines, there are a few tweaks you can make in other areas of your life as well. For example, make sure to remove any sweaty shirts after you exercise as soon as you can. Not doing this will only make it easier for the bacteria in your sweat to breed. In fact, while you’re at it, take a quick shower with your cleansing body wash to make sure you have every ounce of sweat off of your back.
Another lifestyle change that you should consider making is your diet and water consumption. I know, I know, drink more water you’ve heard it a thousand times. But IT’S TRUE! Many people have seen quite a significant difference in their skin when they have made these lifestyle changes.
Bacne really can be a pain in the, well, back but it isn’t untreatable. Following these few simple tips that we laid out in this article will definitely put you on the path to soft, blemish-free skin.
