Why can’t you rub alcohol over large areas of the body?

Sometimes I rub alcohol all over my back, chest, and face becuz it seems to help my pimples better than proactiv or any of them facial treatments. But today I noticed it says “do not apply over large areas of the body.” is this becuz your body will absorb it and you will get drunk? Or what else?

If you put too much rubbing alcohol over large portions of your body you can get poisoning.

Here’s some advice on how to stop breakouts on the body:

First — stop using bar soap. The stuff that holds bar soap together (including clear bars) will clog your pores. Get a body wash that isn’t greasy. If it leaves a film on your skin after rinsing with water, it’s too greasy.

Second — Get a 1-2% BHA product. BHA is a chemical exfoliant, and it will dissolve the oil in your pores so that pimples don’t start. Apply in the morning. More info on BHA here: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/351364/exfoliation_nation.html?cat=5

Third — Either use pure tea tree oil or benzoyl peroxide on areas prone to breakouts at night. Be careful with benzoyl peroxide as it will bleach clothes and hair.

Fourth — don’t use a really greasy moisturizer, and make sure the bottle says “non-comedogenic”. This means it won’t clog your pores.

Finally, if you do all this for two weeks and it doesn’t get better, see a dermatologist
