I have the same problem.. I've been using the CLINIQUE Acne Solutions Cleansing Face and Body Soap... I've been using it for about 3 weeks and I'm seeing improvements..

This probably sounds weird but you can use dandruff shampoo as body wash and it helps.

Use oils to bathe in. Like castor oil, coconut oil, and a lavender essential oil to make it smell nice. Also, moisturize! Coconut oil is good for that too.

I have the same problem. do you leave your hair down and resting on your back in the shower with conditioner on? if so you should clip it up while waiting then wash the conditioner off your back then rinse your hair right away when your ready to rinse and also rinse your back under your hair again. this is what I do to help me. it really helps a lot!

I had the same problem, but then my doctor advised me to minimize the amounts of wheat flour products, any sweets that contain both -sugars and fats, and the real killer for my back was ice cream. they all sort of create inflammations in ones organism and in my case it became visible on my back. ever since basically avoiding products like that my back still has some scars from the breakouts but it is now beautiful :)

If you do any exercise ensure you wash your back after. Use an exfoliant with citrus in (lemon, lime, orange or tea tree) as this will unblock pores and has antibacterial properties. You can also treat your back in the same way as your face and use a steamer and a acne mask on it. A good diet will defiantly help as well! But you need to do all of these things regularly and your should continue to use products/ treatments for at least 4 weeks as it takes that long for your skin to full renew.

Also if you don't have access to a steamer, you can place a towel in hot water, leave to cool for a bit so it doesn't burn you, squeeze water out and place on your back... This will have the same effect as steaming.
