• Bacteria. There are bacterial that leave on human skin , these bacteria causes pimples and open pores that left us with acne or blackheads.

• Genetic. Families with history of acne are prone to have it . Hence it can be caused by gene.

• Food. Some fatty foods can cause oily skin which leads to blockage of pores that results to pimples and blackheads.
