Default Chest breakouts?

It is the weirdest thing! I have been having nasty breakouts on my chest. I usually breakotu around the time of ovulation and AF. This month has been a doozy. I managed to get the issues with my face ironed out, but I have been broken out on my chest now for two solid weeks. I thought it was getting better, but it looks like it is getting worse . . . . .

I own a ton of V neck shirts, so I need to get this problem fixed. Any solutions?????

My chest use to break out alot too...I actually still have some scars.

I'm not sure how old you are or of your own personal life....but when I went on BCP's mine cleared up, as well as my face!

Before the BCP's I had bad face, chest and back acne. I bought an expensive facial wash set. (I've used Mary-Kay & BeautiControl.) When I was using them as long as I used them twice a day, my skin cleared up quite well. I'd use the fash wash on my chest as well as the facial scrub and toner.

Hope this helps, this is what helped me clear up my skin!

Thanks Laura,

I am 36 and had a tubal so that I wouldn't have to go back on BCPs. I don't know what it has been about these last two weeks, but the acne seems to have concentrated on my chest for some odd reason.

I have some Mary Kay TimeWise scrub for my face. I might try it on my chest tonight to see what happens . . .
