Oh acne face… there’s so many ways to get it! It could come from us wearing old makeup, touching our faces too often, lack of rest, stressing over that super hot guy, falling asleep with a beat face… or perhaps even karma. Regardless, of how it develops, we simply just want it to go away. FARaway.

Nevertheless, if you’ve been noticing some pimple development in the cheek region of your face it may be because of a new beauty enemy. The smartphone! Oh yes, our friends, these connectors to Instagram, Twitter and our DMs are causing breakouts as fast as we can post and hashtag.

How? In short, bacteria. Germs and dirt collect on our phones paving the way for good old acne face. Moreover, since we spend a HUGE amount of time on these devices it ups the chances of us introducing “uncleanness” to our screens constantly.
