My chest has been breaking out uncommonly the past few weeks. For the record, i don't shave it and I work indoors. I'm a very clean person. My chest has always had 1 or 2 spots, but it seems to have really gotten worse the past month. Anyone have any tips or secrets to help clear it up? I've used my facewash on the area and some light topical but no real results. I spend a lot of weekends on the lake in the sun and was hoping some sun would help dry it out, but it hasn't helped either.

Since you do not shave, what soap do you use?? I am kind of thinking it could be soap related... I shave my chest, back, arms, arm pits, legs and other areas and certain soaps like dial liquid broke me out, but now that I use Safeguard soap *started using it because when I had the color in my lower sleeve, does not dry out my skin*, no more problems either!

It could be your diet. Watch your sugar intake and drinks lots of water. That usually helps clear things up...

Thanks guys...I use a liquid shower gel and a loofah. Old Spice RedZone to be exact. I've been using it for about 2-3 months..before that I used Dial for Men. Perhaps i should go back to that and see if there is any change. I can't say much has changed with my diet, but i'll try and be a little more conscientious of it.
Do you spray a cologne on your neck and/or chest? I've found quite a number of scents irritate me terribly, even in minute quantities.
Same here!! I sprayed once a cologne on my chest, and voila, here was the irritation - lasted about a week to get healed up. No irritation if I apply the same on face or neck, weird these bodies....
