Stress acne
So How does stress actually relate to the cause of blemishes on your face??
Emotional stress triggers an increased release of the stress hormone cortisol. "When cortisol levels rise, they disrupt levels of hormones that regulate sebum balance and result in clogged pores and development of acne. More oil production means more clogged pores, and more clogged pores mean more breakouts. “If stress acne seems to happen often, then try switching your skincare routine. Find products that work with your skin, not against it. “Drink plenty of fluids, eat a healthy diet, and do things to manage your stress such as get more sleep and do things to relax.
