The sun may be good for your health because it helps your body make vitamin D, but if you have acne-prone skin, spending too much time in the sun will only worsen your skin’s condition. Invest in a good sunscreen and make sure it is non-comedogenic, which means it won’t clog your pores and is oil-free as well.

Popping a pimple won’t make it go away faster, and you might end up with sores, scars, or even an infection. Don’t scratch or pop the pimples on your body. If the itching is bad, see a dermatologist to get a spray or ointment to apply to the skin. This will help your skin heal better and faster.

Salicylic acid is a gentle exfoliating scrub that can help deep clean your skin and wash away sweat, dirt, and other things that are clogging your pores and making your body acne worse. Exfoliation even removes dead skin cells, which helps the skin stay healthy.
