Nope.


Allergies are not contagious. They are the person's immune systerm itself reacting to something it doesn't like. Its very specific to each person.
Reply:No, allergies are not contagious. They are a body's specific reaction to a specific allergen source, and everyone reacts differently to them.

Reply:Skin allergies are not contageous. But secondary bacterial skin infections may occur. If so, it becomes contageous.

Acne can be caused by stress, hormonal activity, bacteria, steroids, and over-active glands. Nearly 17 million people in the United States have acne.
