Fats and oils are needed for your brain and nervous system, for energy production and for making most of the body s vital hormones. Children, in particular, absolutely require adequate fats and oils, particularly EPA and DHA. These are two omega-3 essential fatty acids needed for development of the nervous system.
Styling gel, smoothing serums, hair spray and other hair products can cause acne on your forehead if they have a chance to accumulate there, says Susan Binder, a New York City-based dermatologist in Glamour magazine's daily beauty blog. If you have bangs, your forehead may be even more acne-prone.
Unfortunately, the bangs-breakout connection is not just a myth. Acne occurs when oil and dead skin cells plug the hair follicles, allowing bacteria to grow. When bangs cover your forehead, they deposit natural hair oils and dead skin cells from the scalp onto your skin. This can clog pores and lead to breakouts, especially if your hair tends to get greasy.
