Question: My skin is not smooth right from I used to have pimples all over my body and its getting worse now Im 19 years old
Answer: Pimples are common usually harmless at that age They are often a result of your skins oil glands making too much oil which then leads to clogged pores 

My advice is that you avoid popping picking at or touching them as popping may cause scarring In addition touching your pimple can transfer oil and bacteria from your hands to your face therefore infecting the pimple and not giving it a chance to heal

Washing your face regularly about twice per day especially when it gets sweaty This helps to keep oil from building up and clogging your pores Dont overwash or use harsh scrubs Acne is not caused by dirt Two gentle washings a day is enough Too much cleaning can leave skin irritated and dry triggering glands to produce more oil increasing the likelihood of pimples

Stress or hormonal changes can also worsen pimples outbreak 

Cosmetics and makeup that have a greasy consistency may also clog pores Waterbased products are less likely to cause pimples than oilbased makeup Use oilfree or noncomedogenic products those that wont clog pores on your face

Should you have an excessive amount of pimples you will benefit from speaking to a dermatologist
