Spotty Bum

[mrjamie21]

Ok...bit embarrassing. I don't get spots on my face or anywhere else...except I have quite a spotty bum (cheeks). It's not very attractive...and no, it's not an STI before anybody suggests that. I've tried using moisturiser and body lotion after I've showered but it's not helping. Does anybody know what I can do to get rid of this?

Hi mrjamie!

Have you tried using a body brush? Every morning try using one in a circular movement on both cheeks, this will help to exfoliate and get rid of dead skin, also doing this can help release toxins . Use it all over your body to get extra soft smooth skin :o)

You can get these from places like Boots, Superdrug etc..
this is a picture of one so you know what your looking for:

Its because your bum is getting clammy when you put this moisturiser on after bath. Try talc to dry it out and as wingnut says exfoliate

you could put some witch hazel on it with a cotton wool pad to dry it out also x

I would recommend a body brush too, its probably that you dont exfoliate enough and it will be ingrowing hairs causing the spots.

Hi again :o)

I got mine, or rather a friend bought me one from Avon, but I have started to get their catalogue for the past few months and not seen anymore in there. Try the Avon website to see if they have any on there, failing that, look at Boots, Superdrug, The Body shop. You would prob have more luck at their larger stores.
Make sure it is a body brush and not one you use in the shower, they look very similar and they can easily be mixed up :o)

Hope that helps! :o)
