Stop Wearing Tight Clothing

During workouts, avoid wearing tight clothing. Acne can break out anywhere on our bodies, and is most common in places where there is a lot of friction and heat. This type of acne is called acne mechanica. For example, avoid wearing headbands or wristbands when you are working out. If you find that your back is prone to acne breakouts, wear loose fitting shirts.

Exercise Is Great For Your Skin

Getting regular exercise is critical in having healthy looking skin. If you exercise for half an hour, about four times a week, you’ll start seeing tighter, better looking skin and less acne. Working out helps balance your hormone levels, which reduces the amount of acne that is produced on your face.

Stress is another big cause of acne. Stress reducing workouts (such as pilates), can help prevent acne breakouts. Pairing consistent exercise and stress reducing workouts will help you achieve the great skin you dream of. Remember to wash your face after workouts.
