Is your cell phone giving you zits?

If you're seeing whiteheads, blackheads, or pimples on your cheeks that just won't go away, your cell phone may be to blame. When your fingers touch the screen or keys, any dirt, oil, or bacteria that was on your hands transfers to the phone. Press the phone against your cheek to make a call and voila, all that nasty stuff is now on your face, clogging pores and causing chaos (hello, breakouts!) on your complexion.

So what can you do (besides going bluetooth hands-free?)? Try wiping down the front of your phone with an alcohol wipe (sold at any drugstore) or make your own by applying a little rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad. Don't saturate the pad though, or you may be going to your wireless provider with water damage issues.
