does excessive sweating from exercise = breakouts?

I'm breaking out all over my face and I don't know why...this has never happened to me . The only thing I've been doing differently is working out. Is this happening to anyone else?

    It can. But more than likely acne is usually a shift in hormones.

    It can. When I do get the occasional breakout it usually occurs on my chest and back where my sports bra seams are touching my skin.

    Could be. Try washing your face as soon after your workout as you can. This was recommended to me by the girl who did my facial a few weeks ago.
