Default body acne! --back, shoulders, chest

I mostly have acne scars, especially on my shoulders and back. Once they finally clear up, another pimple or three pop up again!

Does anyone else have this problem and what do you use to treat it?

Default scrub, scrub, scrub

I was really having trouble with this during pregnancy. UGH! The ONLY thing that ever really worked for me was to use a "puff" every time I shower. For some reason if I just wash they pop up. I notice that if I just wash, without a puff, when I towel off I have lots of dead skin coming off....maybe that's all it would take for you too! I don't use any special shower gels or anything. I think it's just getting all the dead skin off that works.

Good luck!

Becky
