Acne is one of the most commonly occurring skin conditions, and it affects people of all ages and genders. Although acne typically affects the face, it can also develop on other parts of the body, including the back. Back acne, or bacne, can be both uncomfortable and unsightly, but with the right knowledge and treatment, it can be easily managed. In this blog post, we will explore what causes acne on the back, the relationship between food and acne, the best skincare ingredients for back acne, and tips for treating and preventing it.
Back acne is a skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, pustules, blackheads, or whiteheads on the back. The condition is caused by the same factors that cause facial acne, such as clogged pores, bacterial infections, hormonal imbalances, and genetics. Back acne may range from mild to severe and can be worsened by factors such as stress, tight clothing, and certain medications.
Like facial acne, back acne can be caused by a wide range of factors, including hormonal imbalances, genetics, certain medications, stress, and environmental factors. Hormonal imbalances, particularly an increase in androgen hormone levels, can lead to the overproduction of sebum, the oily substance produced by the skin to lubricate and protect it. This excess sebum can clog pores and lead to the formation of pimples, pustules, and other acne lesions. Environmental factors, such as pollution and humidity, can also contribute to the development of acne.
By understanding the root causes of acne, we can better address this common skin concern and work towards clearer, healthier skin.
Some research shows that foods you eat could be linked to acne. While there is little evidence to support a direct link between specific foods and acne, some studies have suggested that a diet high in carbohydrates and dairy products may worsen acne symptoms. These foods can cause a spike in insulin levels, which in turn can increase the production of sebum. In addition, dairy products contain hormones that may stimulate the sebaceous glands, leading to the production of more oil.
To effectively manage acne on your back, it is important to use skincare products that target the root causes of the condition. Look for products that contain ingredients such as salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). Salicylic acid is particularly effective in treating acne on the back because it can penetrate deep into the pores, exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging pores. Benzoyl peroxide is a powerful antibacterial agent that can kill the bacteria that cause acne. AHAs, such as glycolic and lactic acids, can help to exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and unclogging pores.

“As far as I can remember I have always struggled with sensitive skin. The issues culminated in my mid-twenties when I started having rosacea flares and redness. My personal quest for effective, safe solutions took a professional turn, and I was given the opportunity to apply my (Pharma) background in developing a new skin friendly product line. My goal was to create something new, a clinically proven sustainable skincare brand. This science backed probiotic skincare derived technology is a product of years of research and innovation in personal care products. Metabiotics contain naturally produced hyaluronic acid, lactic acid, SMase, lipoteichoic acid, over 40 peptides and enzymes. All assigned with specific tasks for activating the skins native repair mechanisms.”

Following the principles of Clean Beauty, we have joined the dedicated stream of safe, non-toxic beauty enthusiasts.
Our products contain carefully selected hypoallergenic ingredients suitable for sensitive and reactive skin.
We’re committed to formulating with natural, organically-derived, and skin-friendly synthetics while excluding popular “good feeling” and potentially harmful compounds to provide the best skincare solutions.
“It is easy to get hooked on conventional products, with inviting perfumes and the instantly pleasant skin feeling. The sooner you understand that those sensations are short-lived the better! Choose Clean Beauty and allow the science backed ingredients time to work wonders on your skin.”
Our products’ superiority has been proven in a controlled study on 50 volunteers where it was shown that four-week product use leads to a significant increase in skin moisture levels (39%), increased skin elasticity (50%), and a decrease in the appearance of wrinkles (23%).
Other beneficial effects include decrease in skin sensitivity, increase in skin cleanliness, evenness of the skin tone, decrease in acne formation.
This study serves as proof of the skin’s gradual return of its protective layer, integrity, and balance. All study results have been published in a peer reviewed journal as well as the full study report.
“Putting all science aside, we are most proud of our users’ testimonials. All tested volunteers claimed visible and tangible improvement in skin feel and appearance.”
The greatest breakthrough discovery we stumbled upon is that skincare and cosmetics should not be sensational.
Personal care should be comprehensive, accessible, and efficient, just as all solutions that come from nature are.
We are often faced with labels such as anti aging skin care, organic skin care, natural skincare products, which lack the necessary explanation… What do these phrases actually mean?
“Grown tired of all the misleading, incomprehensive, irrelevant information used in the beauty industry we decided to stick to a no-nonsense approach. It is what it is, and skin care is not magic! It requires commitment, patience and understanding your skins’ needs.”
We are dedicated to neutralizing our negative impact on the environment as much as possible and have joined the stream of sustainable skincare brands. We’re taking you on for the ride (we’ve even packed the goodies)!
To help minimize our carbon footprint, for every product order a tree will be planted thanks to our amazing planters at One Tree Planted. It’s estimated that a mature tree nullifies around 20lbs of CO2 a year.
We’re doing our best to reuse, reduce and recycle. Wishing to inspire a circular economy we have partnered up, to create a customized recycling program. Collect three empty plastic packages to receive your Anbiome Recycling Envelope and follow the instructions on how to take part in our recycling mission.
Your good deed shall be rewarded. For every three products recycled you receive one product gift!
Today’s trends in skincare require the use of synthetic active ingredients which interact with the skin. Our approach is to distinguish natural alternatives, which mimic the skins native repair mechanism and are more efficient and ecologically sound.
Translating solutions from nature into industrial settings is hardly an easy task, but it’s one we enjoy undertaking.
We have screened 500+ different wild probiotic strains from the nature, to find the most powerful ones.
Special fermentation process was developed to harvest powerful molecules (HA, LTA, SMase, LA and 40 peptides).
Result is the composition of native signal components and molecules that keep the skin balanced, healthy and protected.
