Because of my weird working shifts etc, I tend to go to sleep at approx 4am, and not wake until midday, sometimes later. My skin is just as healthy as anyone else's. I'm 20 years old too, so if acne were gonna set in, i'd be a prime target for it.
Gotta be a myth. That, or i'm damn lucky!

I believe it is true. Even a clean pillow & case will transfer the secreted oils back into your face & create more infection. Lack of air circulation could also make it worse. And when you are sleeping, it is difficult to wash your face often, which keeps acne from getting worse.
Funny thing. Before I began typing, I said no. Sometimes common sense takes awhile to get here. Of course I could be dead wrong. Let's see what everyone else says . . .

NO!!!!! It is a myth!! Acne occurs when someone has oily skin and they don't thoroughly clean their face, dirt gets into the pores and causes an infection. So, sleep all you want but be sure to clean your face properly with a mild, perfume -free soap.

I say "for every problem there is a remedy". I don't think that sleeping late cause acne... no way... it might be age or skin condition. There are products in the market to treat that condition. Try and check www.hamka.4healthdirect.com they have beautiful products, I'm sure they might help you. Good luck

Definitely! And waking up early, say 4 AM every day cures acne....
NO. This is just one of those stories people hear about.

I sleep late and my skin is clear. I think acne is caused by stress, diet, and hormones.

I believe it's true because having an abnormal sleeping pattern can lead to several other problems such as fatigue.
