Adult Acne?
I have it, never had a pimple problem as a teen. my aunt said she has adult acne as well, and the dermatoligist said the best stuff to get is Cetaphil…anyone have experiences with it? or any other non-prescription suggestions?

I have the same problem, and so does my daughter, so I got some cetaphil thinking since it is gentle and all it would be good for both of us. I havent seen any improvment at all in using it for a month. I now have started using an oil cleansing method and seeing some relief…who would think in my 30′s Id be dealing with this!
I’m 28 and had moderately bad in my late teens. Then for like 5 years nothing, I was completely clear. About a year ago, I started getting pimples again. I tried everything, Proactiv, special detox diets, anything to rid myself of it. Then I went to the dermatologist and he gave me a couple tips.
1. Stop using my Mach 4 and start using a 2 blade cheaper razor. He said that the closer shave you get, the more irriation you’ll have.
2. Less is more. Don’t try and use so many products that all promise the same thing. You don’t really need much.
3. He told me to use Cetaphil. I’ve heard of it, but never thought of buying it before. Well I got the face wash stuff and the lotion, and it worked as well as anything I had ever tried. I had never used moisturizer/lotion an maintained clear skin. The stuff works wonders…hope it works that well for you.
Good luck. Oh, get the smallest bottle you can first…in case it doesn’t work for you. Usually something will work for me for about a month and then stop working. Cetaphil is the only thing that has continuously worked over a long period of time.
It’s nothing horrible. This happens to many, especially younger adult (under 30). Try getting a daily anti-acne cream that will clean your skin. Also, your skin is probably very oily, so if you want it to be better, use a drying cream aswell.
Or go see a beautician and ask her about it. =)
Good luck with getting rid of your acne =)
Acne can be embarrassing at the best of times. I would try going into a site called Epinions.com and find out what users are saying about various products. Good hygene which involves regular bathing helps a lot. Good internal health is a major contributor to healthy skin. Consider going to see a wholistic health professional, they have some great supplements. Try and stay away from the junk foods. Below is an article I found that might be of interest to you.
I my self had adult acne and hated it!! I was been using Arbonne Clear Advantage and it cleared up my skin!! I have now moved to a different line with Arbonne and my skin is still clear! I still get a zit time to time but that is my hormones! I have been trying to balance my hormone as well but that has not been as easy!
Hey kg22,
I used to have horrible acne I can’t even tell you how bad it was. I found http://www.my-info-portal.com/acnefree.html and bought it for like $40 and it seriously cured my acne.
Like seriously IT IS GONE. I don’t even have ONE LITTLE PIMPLE!!!!
After using this I can’t believe it’s only $40 and after you use it you won’t either haha
The trips I took to the dermatologist cost me WAY more than that lol and the CRAP they gave me just made my acne worse~!!!!! uhggg… lol
Oh and it also guarantees it will cure your acne in 3 days or your money back.
Anyway I hope this helps!
Love Samantha
