Just when you think "zits" were a thing of your distance past, you look in the mirror and see blotchy, red bumps. Adult acne can make an appearance even in later years and the reasons are really no different than those in your teen or middle years: hormones, stress, medication and improper cleansing.

While the reasons you have acne may be the same as they were in the past, the care required isn't. Aging skin requires extra care and consideration. Don't put the focus just on the acne but pay attention to your overall health and use products that both nurture and nourish.

Hormones

You can thank menopause for the outbreaks you though were forever gone. A shift in your hormone levels will have you feeling your age but looking like an adolescent but in not a good way. Balance your hormones with soy, Black Cohosh, Chasteberry, Dong Quai, Licorice, Mexican Yam and other herbs. Use a good natural herbal supplement to calm with wild winds of the change.

Stress

Balancing your hormones will go a long way in stabilizing your mood. Vitamin B-Complex and SAMe will help as well. Finding humor instead of frustration in this glorious time of change is critical to your inner joy. Biotin (B7) is especially beneficial for anti-aging.  Check the signs of insufficient Biotin in your diet.

Medication

Talk to your doctor if you noticed an outbreak after trying a new medication. Sometimes just a minor adjustment can make all the difference.

Cleansing

Keeping your skin's correct pH balance of 4.5-5.0 is key. But so is exfoliation, which often gets overlooked as we treat our aging skin. Layers of dead skin and blocked pores are breeding grounds for bacterial growth. Use products that contain both anti-bacterial and natural cleaning agents and oils to help the skin stay hydrated and soothed.

Carly's Clear and Smooth Acne Treatment isn't well known but its users rave about its ability to get rid of acne while keeping the skin healthy. It contains a natural soap solution of coconut, olive, soybean and cottonseed.   It also contains natural shea and mango butters, walnut shell powder, aloe vera, oil from apricot kernels, macadamias, evening primrose and essential oil extracts from Brazilian sweet orange, lavender, Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, Rosemary, Sandalwood and Indian Jasmine.

Unlike most soaps, especially those for acne, it does not contain sodium laurel sulfates or parabens, which can cause outbreaks and allergic reactions in aging skin.

If you suffer from adult acne, give Carly's a try.
