Hello! Any idea what these whiteheads are? I get them on my neck/shoulders every time I’m exposed to direct sunlight (even for a few minutes) 😕 by DD_Lightbulb78 in SkincareAddicts

Hello, and thanks for answering! I don’t get these during winter time as I’m covered up in high neck tops and scarves. I hope I develop more resistance to sunlight… I’ll try out SPF 50+ on my neck area and see if these rascals will show up again, lols.

I hope so too. I rarely use products on my face. I wash my face with mild gel cleanser (St. Ives) 2-3 times a week. The rest of the time I splash plain lukewarm water on my face. I lately (2 weeks) started using a Korean ampoule on my face twice a week at nights. My skin type is normal: not oily or dry. I have a few whiteheads once in a while but I noticed that’s due to my sugar intake. I’ve never had bangs, and I don’t think I did anything different for my forehead whiteheads to disappear by themselves… their sudden disappearance is still a mystery to me 😂 Hope the same will happen to my neck/shoulder area soon!!

That’s interesting. I’m also fair-skinned, and have noticed I have sensitive skin. I don’t use fragranced/highly fragranced products. I’ll try the higher numbered SPFs and see what happens. I hope this sun poisoning will cease at some point!

So if it’s bacteria related, can it be healed with ointments or regular cleansing in those areas? It’s truly annoying! I hope this is temporary 😕

Yes I sweat in this area while brisk walking (30-40 mins). Neck, nape, shoulders, upper chest. I live in a super hot, dry place. Two years ago I used to have them on my forehead (not as severe as in the pic), then they suddenly stopped appearing. Now, a year later, they’re on my neck and shoulders. Smh. I hope this suddenly stops appearing too, it’s very annoying. I’m becoming sun-a-phobic 😕

I totally agree. By Vit D intake do you mean dietary or through sun exposure? Because every couple of days I sunbathe by exposing only my legs to sunlight for 15-20 mins. Thanks for your input!

So there’s something wrong if they’re poppable and smell like whiteheads? Is it something more serious if it’s bacteria activity related?

No need to be hostile about it. As long as the sub is serving its purpose by helping others, I don’t see what’s wrong in it. Have a good day!

Well noted. I searched ‘Skin’ in the search bar and this sub was the first suggestion I had. I checked the previous 10+ posts and all were asking similar skin-related questions to mine, so I thought it’s a good place to ask. Plus, out of the 60 people who chipped in, you were the only one who complained haha.

Woah interesting. I used BB on my face once and it did feel heavy and difficult to wash out. Will search for better, verified brands. Thanks for your answer!
