The 13 Worst-Skin Cities

The environmental aggressors in these towns could be damaging your skin

No. 12: Tacoma, Washington

Not a fan of stress breakouts? (Stress raises your level of cortisol, which can affect oil glands and acne.) You may want to avoid Tacoma like the plague, because -- along with 21 tanning salons per capita and a high incidence of skin cancer according to the Center for Disease Control -- it is the most stressed-out city in our country. (Tacomans may find some relief from these top-rated acne-fighting products.)

Sometimes I just want to go back to the good ole days when everyone tanned with iodine and baby oil, while outside smoking. I know. Yuk huh. Life was a lot more fun and nobody told you that your lifestyle was dangerous. I would hate to be a young person these days. kattail8

Ohhh brother - get over yourself - obviously this article was written Tongue in Cheek.. If you look at the blue text in many of the articles, they DO make some gratuitous suggestions (Ads!) on products that might be a good place to start.. Bottom line, you have to do some checking around to see what might work for You...

I agree with bella.. Why sit here and tell us to just pack up and leave, instead of give helpful advice? And if I hear one more negative about a nice tan...

Being a resident of Cleveland Ohio...I am very resentful that of the the cities listed in this article...there are no recommendations for changing skin care...only for us to pack our bags and leave our city. Clevelanders are highly loyal to our hometown and can use without the jabs!!!
