A guide on dealing with acne skin
Do you know the causes of your acne?
Acne causes on different face parts
Forehead
(Late-night acne)
Staying up late affects hormone levels, increasing oil production and causing breakouts. Poor sleep raises stress, contributing to acne. Sleep and stress both impact skin health.
Cheek
(Bed hygiene acne)
Dirty pillowcases or bed linens can harbor bacteria, oils, and dead skin cells, which may lead to clogged pores and acne. This is true—regular washing of bed linens can help prevent acne.
Chin
(Stress acne)
Stress has been shown to stimulate the adrenal glands, leading to increased sebum production, which can trigger or worsen acne. This is widely accepted as a cause of stress-related breakouts.
Acne caused by lifestyle habits
Spicy and greasy food
While diet’s direct impact on acne varies between individuals, consuming high amounts of greasy, spicy, or sugary foods can trigger hormonal changes (like insulin spikes), potentially increasing sebum production and leading to acne. This is supported by some evidence but may not affect everyone equally.
Dirty skin
Poor skincare habits, such as not properly cleansing the skin or removing makeup, can lead to clogged pores and breakouts. This is true, as skin hygiene is critical in preventing acne.
Three Key Steps to Repair Acne-Prone Skin

It’s recommended to follow a balanced diet with mild, less spicy food, ensuring proper nutrition and healthy habits.
