Pimples are caused by stress, but I think blackheads are caused by the oil in your skin.
Yes it can. Stress causes your body to give off different ';oily'; chemicals which deposit themselves in your skin causing blackheads and pimples.
I think your immune system could be down/body not functioning at its best when you're stressed.

I notice that when I am under stress my face will break out. But how do we know that the stress isn`t caused from an imbalance of the hormones when you are about to get your period, and it is the imbalance that causes both. During the remainding portion of the month, we are not really bothered by stressful situations as much except during the time of our periods.
No. It is cause by oil secretions in the skin. See a dermatologist.
Myth #1: Acne is caused by poor hygiene. If you believe this myth, and wash your skin hard and frequently, you can actually make your acne worse. Acne is not caused by dirt or surface skin oils. Although excess oils, dead skin and a day's accumulation of dust on the skin looks unsightly, they should not be removed by hand scrubbing. Vigorous washing and scrubbing will actually irritate the skin and make acne worse. The best approach to hygiene and acne: Gently wash your face twice a day with a mild soap, pat dry--and use an appropriate acne treatment for the acne.





Myth #2: Acne is caused by diet. Extensive scientific studies have not found a connection between diet and acne. In other words, food does not cause acne. Not chocolate. Not french fries. Not pizza. Nonetheless, some people insist that certain foods affect their acne. In that case, avoid those foods. Besides, eating a balanced diet always makes sense. However, according to the scientific evidence, if acne is being treated properly, there's no need to worry about food affecting the acne.





Myth #3: Acne is caused by stress. The ordinary stress of day-to-day living is not an important factor in acne. Severe stress that needs medical attention is sometimes treated with drugs that can cause acne as a side effect. If you think you may have acne related to a drug prescribed for stress or depression, you should consult your physician.





Myth #4: Acne is just a cosmetic disease. Yes, acne does affect the way people look and is not otherwise a serious threat to a person鈥檚 physical health. However, acne can result in permanent physical scars--plus, acne itself as well as its scars can affect the way people feel about themselves to the point of affecting their lives.





Myth #5: You just have to let acne run its course. The truth is, acne can be cleared up. If the acne products you have tried haven鈥檛 worked, consider seeing a dermatologist. With the products available today, there is no reason why someone has to endure acne or get acne scars.
