Spotty back.

For the first time in my life I have a spotty back. I guess it must be the hormones. It's also really dry and itchy, so I'm confused about how to treat it. Tea-tree oil shower gel to get rid of the spots? Or E45 cream to get rid of the itchy dryness? It kind of seems a contrition to use tea-tree and E45 as they treat two separate problems really.

I have really bad acne on my face and a few spots on my back too. I haven't had this many spots in a long time. I get rid of one then three more appear.

I know how your feeling. I'm using tea tree but that doesn't seem to be doing much.

Thanks Holly. It's just because it's dry and spotty at the same time. Don't know whether to buy stuff for dry skin or oily skin
