    I think it is just an allergy. I get it on my chest during hot summer days, too. It is all-over your body on are localized?

    The sun actually supplies your skin with vitamin D which helps
    remove acne. However, a small amount of sun is only
    good for your skin no longer than 30 mins.

    Well I think it is only allergy. I get acne on my shoulders but it goes off if i use proper talcs and tkae a shower everyday. Its probably just because of the sweat and heat.

    It depends on your skin type. i know that if you have a sensitive skin is not recommended to expose yourself to much to the sun.

    I've heard that is better to avoid exposing yourself to the sun from 12.00 to 17.oo. when the sun is more powerful we must protect our skin from UV-B and UV-A.

    Yes, I've heard that too.. Thats probably because of the direction of the sun rays at that particular time period. They are really dangerous to the skin may provoke acne and regular exposure may lead to symptoms of skin cancer.

    Protect your skin as much as you can during the day and especially on the beach. Use an sunscreen of 15 or higher, it depends on your skin type and color

    I had acne real bad when I was a teen. It left in two weeks when I joined the military.

    I'm wrighting a book on Acne now. Raised two boys and managed to keep their acne under control.

    Curing acne is just doing the basics. That's not easy when you are a teen living in America.

    If you were growing up in a foreign country where there were no greasy comfort foods and processed foods you wouldn't be able to get Acne.

    So learn to eat your vegetables. Eat fruit. Get your sleep. Losing sleep and consuming sugar and caffeine are very bad for your complexion.

    In the military I hit the sak at 9:00 every night and was woke up at 5:00 every morning. My skin on my face and chest lost the excess oiliness in a week and a half.

    In basic training we weren't allowed to go back for seconds and the desserts were not very big, just small portions, but we ate on time every day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

    So, it was the getting to bed early, eating enought good food and very small amounts of desserts, and the low stress. Yes, the military had us for a while. Our life was on hold, so we had no real worries and there wasn't the tension over the opposite sex to exite the skin.

    The vegetables in the diet have a great deal to do with relaxing the skin and slowing down oil production because of the calcium. Brocolli is on of the best foods for the skin, and spinach. You get all kinds of vitamins and calcium. Avacados are good too. You get monounsaturated fatty acids. Avacados are better than eating potato chips for you skin. They are high in vitamin A which is good for the skin.

    Don't over eat, especially out of stress and worries. Just have fun and be happy. There is no time like the teenage years for being happy and going out on dates with someone you really like. Being happy has so much to do with the hormone balance and your complexion.

    Have you ever noticed how teens in love glow. They don't breakout, they glow because they are complete and happy, so get that way. Your teenage years only come around once, so enjoy them. Stan
