You said (not from concentrate) u mean pretty much liquid sugar and orange flavoring? If so I think that would do it

 
Even tho this is an old post, not from concentrate means just pure juice....so just straight from the orange.

 
I was just reading a thread about this too over on acne.org... lots of people said OJ makes them break out :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> (and a few said that even their derms told them to stop drinking it). This completely depressed me because I have at least 3 glasses of OJ a day (but then again, my skin sucksS).. I am going to give it up completely starting tomorrow.. lets see how long i'll last!

 
I've heard that orange juice messes with your bodies ph and that can really break some people out.

 
My father gets severe cold sores when he drinks too much oj. This is acid related, and I'd say that explains the skin situation as well.

 
I never drank 4 glasses of O.J. in one day...but from a regular one or two a day...no i don't break out. But facial products with vitamin c breaks me out.

 
Hi,

You're right Shannon. Too much acid can be a problem because it causes the ph in the body to become unbalanced. I know when I eat too many fruits that contain acid in one sitting, I can expect pimples.

I was watching a program called diet doctors today and they said citrus fruits can trigger acne.

 
Orange juice is good for you. I don't think your break out is due to too much orange juice. If your body is hydrated, maybe because you don't drink enough water. And when the body lacks water, you are more likely to get pimples.

 
I heard it takes like 2 weeks for a pimple to form though, so breaking out within a couple days due to food seems unlikely...at least its probably not true acne if that happens...more like an allergy or irritation?
