Answer:

A. Sometimes I get acne when I use my sister's make-up

Explanation:

Acne is as a result of blockage of the pilosebaceous units (hair follicles and their accompanying sebaceous gland).

The make up blocks the pores and allows build up of dead cells which eventually breaks out as acne.

Answer:

a) Sometimes I get acne when I use my sister's makeup.

Explanation:

Acne vulgaris is a skin disease involving the sebaceous glands found at the root of hair follicles. It commonly occurs during the pubertal phase of growth when the oil glands are active. Acne vulgaris is characterized by pimples, blackheads, cysts, and spots which are mostly found on the face, back, neck, chest and shoulders.

Acne occurs when sebaceous glands are blocked and infected by a bacteria called propionibacterium acnes.

Risk factors and causes of acne vulgaris include; genetic factors, hot climate, oily and greasy makeups, menstruations and hormonal changes.

It can be treated by using over-the-counter medications such as benzoyl peroxide, sulfur, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, antibiotics and also soaps and gels etc.
