The time is nigh.
Kendall Jenner suffered from acne as a teen, but that doesn't just mean her face had the occasional breakout. Acne can strike anywhere, but is particularly common on the back and chest. Why? Because oils from your hair hit the skin and cause pores to clog up. Fortunately, Kendall's dermatologist, Christie Kidd, has some tips for preventing bacne that will blow your mind, and the key is revamping your shower routine.
"Most of the time it's how we wash and condition our hair that's causing it," she explains in a video on Kendall's app. "Most of us, we wash our hair, we condition it. And while our conditioner is sitting, that's when we wash our body, and then the last thing we do is rinse out our conditioner. Wrong."
So, how should we be washing our hair and bodies? "You need to wash and condition your hair first," Kidd says. "Rinse all your conditioner out and clip your hair up and now wash your body. I want you to lather your chest and you back with your hands, not an abrasive back brush. Lather, lather, lather, and let it sit while you're washing the rest of your body. And just before you get out of the shower is when you'll rinse everything off. That will cut down your bacne a lot."
Welp, this changes everything. So long, bacne.
