    Skin stress at wits end

    I'm getting so worried.. I have never had a problem with my skin or spots infact I've always been complimented on it but it the last few weeks I have broken out in what seems like mild acne on my chest and back.. I haven't changed anything as far as I know and don't know what would be causing them and they seem to be getting worse!!

    I have tried sudocrem before bed it doesn't seem to be helping.. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions?!?

    Could it be hot weather? Sweat can clog pores and cause breakouts, as can stress.

    I did consider it might be sweat as it started when I was suffering health anxiety quite severely and was strong night sweats but I haven't been so bad lately so thought it would be gone by now x

    Hi

    Sudocrem is extremely greasy, I would never use it on my face because it would bring me out in massive spots.

    Can I ask what age you are Lu?
