Why Is My Skin Acting Up?

Explore The Three Different Zones Of Your Skin

Unruly skin can be caused by many factors, but there are a few things that may be the culprit. Follow the diagram for the three different zones that cause pimples and outbreaks.

What are the different zones?

• Zone 1: Blemishes in the forehead area are generally caused by stress! Stress causes you to freak out in your head, and it will do the same to your skin! Stress can make your skin act up any day of the week. When feeling stressed, try taking three deep conscious breaths to alleviate yourself from stress before it causes a skin issue.
• Zone 2: Pimples in the nose and cheek area can be caused by what you eat. If this is a problem area for you, try eating a little less chocolate and salty foods.
• Zone 3: Blemishes in the chin and jawline are caused by hormones. As women, this is often where pimples pop up during our "special" time each month. This issue you can hardly avoid, as we cannot control our natural hormones.

With this knowledge, you can target what causes your simple breakouts, and hopefully start preventing them. While this is not a cure for acne, it is a great start for anyone with small skin problems. If you think you may have acne or adult acne, see a dermatologist.
