Especially if you want to wear those skimpy outfits to show off all your curves. Body Acne Body acne can make the most confident person insecure. Trust me, I know from experience. I tried for 6 months to get rid of my acne and it’s finally gone. Hot, humid weather often causes the oil glands to overproduce, resulting in acne on the back and chest. Unfortunately Back and chest acne is much more difficult to get rid of than facial acne. To prevent “backne” wear loose fitting clothing with moisture-wicking fabric to help release trapped moisture. To eliminate acne, wash with a medicated body bar/wash containing salycilic acid, glycolic acid or benzoyl peroxide. What I used, and is sure to work, is Stridex Maximum Strength Pads with 2% salycilic acid (No Alcohol) and Pan Oxyl Bar with 10% Benzoyl Peroxide. Remember to give this treatment a couple of months, acne doesn’t go away quickly. In fact, it might get a little worse in the first month since everything will be coming to the top. Dry Skin Sun exposure, tanning, dehydration and repeated dips in the pool can leave your skin dry and flaky. You can prevent this by exfoliating and moisturizing regularly. Make sure the exfoliating scrub is not to rough, you can actually do more harm than good. It is best to stick with a sugar scrub or a real fine salt scrub. Ingrown Hairs Ingrown hair, or razor bumps, are caused when the shaved or waxed hair gets trapped in the hair follicle and grows back down into the skin. To avoid this don’t pull the skin to taught when shaving and apply light pressure on the blades. If this still doesn’t work, you might want to talk to a dermatologist about permanent hair removal. If you already have ingrown hairs, use a product with salicylic acid or glycolic acid to exfoliate the upper layers of dead skin around the trapped hair. Then take tweezers and pull the hair out of the follicle without removing it completely. Then take a cream with lactic acid directly onto the razor bump to help soften the skin so the hair can emerge. Poison Ivy Make sure to be careful when you are camping or hiking because nothing can ruin a vacation faster than poison ivy. You don’t have to be in direct contact with poison ivy to contract it, in fact you can still pick it up while petting your dog or touching clothing that was exposed. To prevent from getting poison ivy, cover yourself from head to toe if going out into the wild and if you happen to accident come in contact with this plant, immediately wash that area and take off that specific clothing. To eliminate poison ivy, apply a cool wet compress to relieve the itching. Add ground oatmeal or baking soda to your bath or make a paste with either of these products by adding just a small amount of water and apply it directly to the rash. Consider using a lotion with calamine, alcohol or zinc acetate. Do not pop the blisters! If you still can’t bare the itching talk to your doctor about some oral medication you can take. Sunburn To eliminate sunburn, apply cold compresses to help reduce the body temperature. Apply pure aloe gel, calamine lotion (if itchy) and a gentle non scented lotion (to prevent peeling). Drink a bunch of water, but avoid alcohol. See less »
