So why might stress induce acne?
It looks like there are both direct and indirect links.
Stress causes increases in stress hormones, particularly neuropeptides (hormones that are made in the brain).
These directly influence sebaceous glands causing more sebum production resulting in an oilier skin.
Also these hormones can conversely dry the skin and reduce the function of the skin barrier which protects it against infections and other harmful substances from entering the skin.
