1. Benzoyl Peroxide Body Wash

Featured on BlackDoctor

Use a body wash that contains the ingredient benzoyl peroxide. It’s great at ridding your skin of folliculitis since it dries up and removes dead skin clogging your follicles. Just be careful to make sure you rinse it all off, as it is known to bleach clothing when not fully removed.

A great option: PanOxyl Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Creamy Wash

2. Salicylic Acid Pads

The best way to keep those nasty booty bumps away is prevention! Try wiping the area of skin around you bottom side with a swab of salicylic acid. This will keep pores unclogged, and those painful zits away.

3. Lactic Acid Lotion

Though lotion may seem counterintuitive, lactic acid lotion gently exfoliates off  dead skin cells and helps get rid of acne.

A great option: AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion

4. Got Sweat? 

Are you a heavy sweater? Do you go to the gym often? Most body acne comes from sweat build up that clogs the pores with bacteria. Make sure to shower often if you have a lot of of sweat on the body.

A great option: Use a loofah to help exfoliate and remove the bacteria on the skin’s surface.
