A.This is one of the worst myths in skin care! Alcohol is not the solution to acne or oily skin. On the contrary, alcohol can aggravate these problems as the skin tries to overcompensate for the loss in skin moisture (due to alcohol) by producing even more oil, thereby exacerbating the problem. Long term use of skin care products with alcohol can lead to skin irritation, dryness and other unpleasant problems.
