Get Rid of Adult Acne ...

also my face is really shiny for some reason and very oily while the rest of the body is very dry.

I also STILL suffer from adult acne at 40! I do think that diet is most likely the cause of adult acne. I also think environmental issues as well. Such as high humidity, dirty pillow cases and so on.

I'm 28 years old and I started having adult acne last year. I was desperate and I tried just about anything. I spent crazy amount on money on different products and I reached a point where I didn't even want to try anything else because it seemed to only make it worse. Then, I was told by me sister-in-law to use the Clinique products which are doctor recommended (I didn't know that). So, I've bought the 3-step Anti-Blemish products by Clinique and OH MY GOD!!!!! My skin is so soft, my blemishes disappeared and my boyfriend can't stop touching my face and he keeps on telling me how soft my skin is! I definetely recommend to anyone with adult acne to try these products, they will give you your self-confidence back!

I am 22 and my hormones are changing...AGAIN!!!! Trust me I CAN tell. Allways had nice skin. Until...dun dun dun...NOW! Well for about 6 months now, my lovely chin has been coverd with little red spots accompanied by one or two real BIG poppers! I have been a vegetarian for over 6 years. When I went vegan for a year, my skin was magnificat! What I beileve to be some of the issue as of late: MY Hormones - check. Eating way to much cheese and milk - check. Not eating enough veggies and fruit- check. Eating way to many carbs - check. OK soo I've allways been a runner and a dancer, plant trees in Bristish Columbia for a living. Active and healthy, but not eating enough whole raw foods as of late. Such as: Almonds, avacados, spinach, blueberries, strawberries, flax seed oil, leafy green salads, red/orange/yellow peppers, REAL unprocessed protein (know where it comes from and what's in it!!!!) Soooo for the last two weeks - I have been eating this way again + running and hula huping. Also changing my pillow case regularly. Not OVER scubbing the affected area, but dabing clean, mosterizing with NATURAL oatmeal/coccanut based cream. Ooo la laa! My skin is improving! ~~~~~~~~If you do not have dry skin and need a quick fix for a date tonight - warm up some water throw in some salt and apply to the affected area all day - this may help to dry it out (not a long term solution).

There are four important factors that contribute to all acne, teenage and adult. These factors are: hormonal imbalance, retention hyperkeratosis (build up of dead skin cells), inflammation, and Propriani Acnes bacteria. As you age your skin cell turn over cycle slows down, resulting in an excess of dead skin that must be removed in order for the natural sebum to work it's way to the surface of the skin and do it's job- maintain a healthy balance to keep bacterial invaders out of the body. Also as you age your hormone levels can change, and when they do, you can get acne when skin was clear before. It is important to seek the consultation of a professional at the onset of adult acne to control symptoms and minimize scarring.

I have had acne since I was about 13...I'm 22 now. Tried everything, antibiotics, the pill...mine seems to be stress AND hormone related. I'm in the UK and I went to see a dermatologist. All he did was take one look at me and suggest I go onto roaccutaine, which is the one someone was talking about before, causes depression and lots of other things. The negatives outweigh the positives in my opinion. Not sure what else I can do for it now, my Mum suggested laser, so may be something to look into...but I don't see how that's going to stop them coming up? Am always looking for new products/advice to follow. Just hoping it either goes away, or I find something to stop it someday!
