If you're a young male, your acne is likely hormone-related. Your skin may be really oily, but overcleaning won't help. In fact, if you strip all the oil off your skin, it may retaliate by producing more oil.

If you're a female of any age, your acne may be hormone-related. If it's cyclical and appears on your lower face, those are sure signs. Changing or trying birth control pills may help.

Eating greasy food does not make your skin oily. However, loading your body with a lot of junk food will show in the overall health of your body, including your skin.

Exercise is good for your overall health, but wash sweat off your body as soon as possible if you are prone to body acne. Body wash with salicylic acid and exfoliation are great for combatting body acne.

If you live in a place where the air is dirty, you're likely to have skin problems. Not much you can do about that except move.

And not to sound like an infomercial, but ProActiv is great stuff. It made a huge difference in my complexion.
