Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've seen several posts here asking for help with stubborn butt acne so I thought I'd share my recent success here. Previously I had tried applying benzoyl peroxide which surprisingly didn't help at all, using a 2% BHA exfoliant which helped a bit but not a lot, and using an 8% AHA exfoliant which reduced my breakouts but didn't clear it up. I also tried wearing full-coverage cotton underwear to reduce friction with my jeans but that didn't help either.What has worked for me is exfoliating 1-2x a week with the 30% AHA 2% BHA peeling liquid from The Ordinary, which helps reduce the acne scars and slough off surface debris. I think the stronger formula is more effective for body acne than the other exfoliators I was using.Then twice a day I apply 2-3 drops of diluted (about 1:10) tea tree oil to the affected area. The tea tree oil made a huge difference almost immediately, way better than the benzoyl peroxide, plus I can use it during the day without bleaching my clothes. I've only been using this routine for a couple of weeks and already the marks from old breakouts have faded and the number of new breakouts has been greatly reduced.Hope you found this helpful, please let me know if you have tried this and whether it worked for you! Or what else you have tried that has worked.
