According to the back of the Diet Pepsi bottle (and I'm assuming Diet Coke as well) it says it has 0 sugar, 0 calories, and 0 carbs. I know that sugar can cause acne so I was wondering if drinking Diet Coke/Pepsi would cause acne, or since it doesn't have sugar, it wont?

Some people are saying sugar doesn't cause acne-
I know this. It's not the sugar that causes acne it's the new hormones teens like me get. Foods containing high sugar can mess with your blood and hormones causing acne breakouts.

I don't know about that but if you want to put on weight then go for it. The main ingredient in diet sodas is a chemical (aspartame, also a known cancer causing agent) that creates cravings for carbohydrates and makes you thirsty, so you drink and eat more as you develop cancer.
BTW I drink about four cans of regular coke a day and I have no acne problems at all and I only weigh 49kilos.

Sugar can attribute to something called "diabetes of the skin" and sugar is part of the equation with some acne. But the answer to your question is, it's the food coloring in the drink (the carmel coloring) that is the culprit. I had a friend once who had really bad acne, and it would seem to sometimes just get worse, quickly, out of no where. He drank Coke all the damn time. Then he met someone who was a naturalist and told him to stop drinking dark colored colas because that is what caused the acne. He stopped and it cleared up 80%. Nothing else about his eating or cleaning habits changed.

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

There is not proofe for it, but if you think logicly those diet/non sugar/no calories drinks are full of synthetical stuffs and your body may respend for it with light allergies like skin conditions, in this case acnes. Besides if you want less problems with your skin, you schould eat and drink healtier.

Not unless you're pouring it on your face. Sugar does not cause acne. Nothing you eat/drink causes acne. Clogged pores cause acne.
