Boob-acne

Anyone else dealing with boob-acne? My face has been relatively clear (a few breakouts around my hairline) but I've had pimples spring up on my cleavage and even my neck. I've tried exfoliating and washing more often but it doesn't seem to help. Any advice? Anyone else?

  • I bought sulfur acne soap and it helps a lot, you can use it everywhere and it's safe for pregnancy.

    This... I wish my eczema on My face would go away :( acne on my boobs and back at least I can cover.
  • Yes! I hate it too! No way to fix it so far. I'm lucky in that I can leave it alone usually and they don't get bad, but it's still aggravating.
  • I have had this with every pregnancy and is in full bloom right now. I HATE IT! It goes away after, but def leaves some discoloration for a while, I wanna say it took a year to completely look clear and dark spot free again. I finally get a HINT of cleavage and its covered in crap. So not cool.

  • I put a little rubbing alcohol on after a shower to try & dry them out, then don't touch. Mine mostly cleared up a few weeks back.

  • Not boob acne but I have it on my chest and back. Super attractive.
  • It could be a yeast infection. I got one between my boobs. Really nice. Any anti-fungal will kill it quickly. I thought it was acne at first, but then it didn't clear up with benzoyl peroxide and it kind of itched. My OB said yeast infections are very common on the chest during pregnancy.
