Sure, we get it, your face is on show a heck of a lot more than your bod, but using the correct products, ingredients, and formulas can help treat-and, in some cases, even prevent-a whole host of skin issues, from body acne (aka bacne) to keratosis pilaris. Not sure where to start? We got you. Consider this your five-step guide to caring for your body (the correct way), plus a 101 on how to manage if sh*t hits the fan.
