What Is Acne?
When pores fill with sebum and dead skin, the result is acne: pimples, blackheads and occasionally sore nodules.

Hormonal changes, oily skin, bacteria and genetics lie behind acne. On holiday, heat, sweat, sunscreen or make-up that block pores and rubbing from straps can trigger flare-ups.
Symptoms of Acne
- Deeper painful lumps or cysts
- Blackheads and whiteheads
- Marks or scarring after spots heal
- Red, tender spots
- Oily skin
