I have been getting some really red acne on my shoulders and upper back lately. What products do you guys suggest?

I know my fiance started using the Netrogena body wash about a year ago. His back is far from perfect, but it has dramatically decreased the amount of acne on his back.

I've been using my facial cleanser (Olay Total Effects Anti-blemish) and it's been working on my chest and shoulders. In the past I've also used the Neutrogena anti-acne body wash and it worked really well but was drying. Has anyone tried the Cetaphil anti-bacterial soap? I'm wondering if that would be gentle alternative.

I've decided that it really doesn't matter what brand you use, you just need to find something with 2% salicylic acid. Neutrogena has it, and you can find it even cheaper in the various different store brands. Murad has a great body wash with salicylic acid in it, but it's incredibly pricey. Try one with the 2% and I'm betting you'll see an improvement.

Definitely use Neutrogena Body Scrub. As for shampoo, it can cause you to break out as well. I recommend after you shampoo you hair, that you rinse your back/body real well so you won't be left with shampoo residue.

The Neutrogena Acne-Free Body Wash does minimize breakouts on the back and shoulders, but it doesn't stop them completely. Clinique sells a spray that you can spray on your back that is supposed to get rid of breakouts, but I have not tried it.
