I have really bad acne on my back from playing sports. I play tennis so i end up sweating alot and it gathers on my back where my sports bra sits...im hispanic so im naturally tan, is there anyway that i can clear this up.anything short of going to a dermatoligist
Answer:Soak cotton wool in mint juice, and apply every day. Mix cinnamon powder with lime juice to make a fine paste, Apply on pimples. Check out http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/... for more useful info.
They do sell body wash for acne now at drug stores! I think I saw some at Wal-Mart! Other than that...not sure. Good luck!
go to acne.org - you'll learn all you need there
it's not the sweat - it is the friction
the blogs may have tips for this - likely to be a material with less friction
good luck in researching
