Excellent skin care and hygiene are vitally important to remove the excess oils and bacteria that are associated with adult acne. Always follow a strict regimen of thorough cleansing. We recommend Clear Advantage Acne Wash and lukewarm (never hot) water, followed with a hydrating conditioner such as Clear Advantage Refining Toner, and an oil-free moisturizer such as Clear Advantage Acne Lotion. Exfoliate twice a week, and use Bio-Hydria Gentle Exfoliant every day to help the skin rid itself of congestion-causing debris. The Clear Advantage products help regulate sebum (oil) production, remove follicle-clogging debris and kill adult acne bacteria.
For an existing breakout, Benzoyl Peroxide provides unsurpassed clearing, while a claming mask reduces irritation. These products are available at www.ihd.myarbonne.com.
In addition, lifestyle changes can often improve your adult acne. Try to reduce stress, drink plenty of water, and limit your intake of caffeine and nicotine, which may stimulate the adrenal glands and promote oil production.
And always remember never to pick or squeeze pimples, as you'll be left with an even bigger blemish and a scar to remember it by!
Stress and hormonal changes are the primary cause of the re-emergence of adult acne well after puberty. Recent studies indicate that 40 to 50 percent of adults between the ages to 20 and 40 are diagnosed with persistent, low-grade adult acne. Along with several lifestyle changes, including reducing stress and improving diet, there are several products on the market designed to address these problems. Clear Advantage System is a collection of three medicated, skin purifying formulations - all designed to control oil and prevent breakouts.
