Why do I always have less acne in the summer?

I spend a lot of time outside in the summer and I swim in chlorine pools every once in a while (or the ocean). Do those help clear skin?Why do I always have less acne in the summer?
The sun might be drying out your zits, same with ocean water but I have a few friends who are swimmers and they say that chlorine is really bad for your skin, acne wise.Why do I always have less acne in the summer?
I doubt it. If chlorinated water or salt water was effective against acne, then treating acne would be really cheap and we'd all have clear skin forever.


I don't know why you have less acne in the summer. Maybe you're eating better and getting outside more - reduction in stress hormones can improve acne.
Yes, the chlorine drys your skin out and the ocean is a natural cleanser...
ehh not really.
