Acne, a common skin issue affecting nearly everyone at some point, has various triggers, including unexpected ones. Here are seven surprising culprits, according to Viral Strange:
Kissing: Facial contact during kisses, especially if the person has facial hair, can irritate skin due to oil and friction, leading to breakouts.
Your Phone: Bacteria on phones transfer to the skin during use, contributing to pore-clogging and acne.
Dog Licks: Contrary to popular belief, dog saliva carries bacteria that can lead to skin issues when transferred through licking.
Toothpaste: While touted as a pimple remedy, toothpaste ingredients can irritate skin, worsening acne.
Hair Conditioner: Ingredients in hair conditioner may cause zits along the hairline or forehead. Rinse thoroughly and wash your face afterward.
Lack of Sleep: Inadequate sleep leads to stress, triggering excess oil production and skin irritation, fostering acne.
Laundry Detergent: Harsh detergent residues on clothes can aggravate skin, causing breakouts when in contact with the face.
