My cell phone is making my skin break out. How can I clear it up?

I live across the country from most of my friends and family and my boyfriend just moved away for the summer. I spend about 2 hours a day on the phone, minimum. As a result, one side of my face is covered with acne. Has this happened to anyone else? How can I clear this up?

I think it is because your phone is dirty when you use it everyday and it gets rubbed onto the side of your face, spreading the many bacteria it already carries. You should probably disinfect your phone (with each use) as much as possible with alcohol or something of the sort to prevent the spread of acne-causing bacteria on you face.

I've personally had acne on the sides of my face as well, and I blame it on the filth oof my cellphone. Try to use an acne clearing product containing benzoyl peroxide to elminate this minor problem. Good luck! And try not to use the phone for that long anymore...
