4 Weird places you get acne

Acne commonly called as zits if one thing ladies both old and young dread to bear on their skin. Most of us think that these ugly things can pop up only on our face, but the fact is that it can appear in several other weird places.

Basically zits can appear in any place which is prone to be oily and has open pores.

Here are places that zits can pop up and surprise you:

- Scalp

Trust me there is nothing weird about getting acne on your scalp. The scalp also has the same pores as found on your face. When these pores get blocked with oil, dirt or grime, or even the hair products that you use, it gives room for acne to appear.

You can get rid of these acne by using of course cleansing your scalp frequently, which is once every other day and even by using an anti-dandruff shampoo that contain salicylic acid that can clean your scalp of oil and ick that causes pores to clog.

- Nose

The nose on the inside is filled with hair follicles. When something disturbs the balance or irritates the follicle like waxing or plucking, the follicle becomes irritated and inflamed.Sometimes the entry of dust or dirt can also irritate the follicles.

This inflammation or irritation leads to the formation of acne in the nose. This is usually treated using anti-biotic nasal sprays or ointments.

Remember to keep your hands away from it unless you want things to get worse.

- Ears

Our ears also have oil glands. So if we forget to clean them often, this oil, dirt and other hair styling products accumulate and get trapped in the pores resulting in acne.

- Eyebrows

When we expose our eyebrows to beauty procedures such as eyebrows, or excessive make up etc… our follicles in the area of our eyebrows get irritated and can cause breakouts such as acne, rashes etc…

Try to avoid products that contain a lot of oil.

The fastest way to get rid of them is to smother them with tea tree oil and leave on overnight and watch them disappear overnight.

So don’t fret if you experience acne or zits in places where you’re not used to seeing them.
