7 Ways to Prep Your Skin for Summer From Head to Toe

While sweating doesn't cause "bacne" — aka back acne — Dr. Lortscher says that it's true that moisture produced by sweat may encourage the acne bacteria to go wild and cause problems. If you struggle with this, he says to use a body cleanser that specifically targets acne.

"[Use] this product every other day in the shower to start, and then increase to daily as tolerated," he advises, adding that you should seek out products that contain salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and pyrithione zinc. "It's best to avoid isopropyl myristate, laureth-4, or sodium lauryl sulfate, which can worsen acne in some people."
