What causes acne?

Human skin is porous, pores act as a cooling duct and a passage for connecting various under skin glands. Follicles connect a pore and glands. Glands produce a liquid called sebum. The sebum carries dead skin cells through follicles to the skin surface. Pimple grows when these pores get blocked by dirt hence sebum build-up under the skin. Further, it gets infected with bacteria causing severe acne.
