Adult Acne Care

You’re not 13 anymore. Why does your skin think you are? So frustrating – especially when you’re worried about wrinkles too! So unfair! Unfortunately, those teenage acne products may be too tough on your older skin, leading to redness, flakiness and dry skin.  As our skin ages, its ability to regenerate slows down – our skin is more fragile than younger skin. This can make it harder for adult skin to improve the appearance of acne, enlarged pores and uneven texture.

Olay Professional Pro-X Clear Acne Protocol is a 3-step-system with skin-clearing salicylic acid and skin-tone-smoothing vitamin B3 and ginger root. The system balances moisture levels and minimize the appearance of oily skin throughout hormonal fluctuations. (Nice!) And it is supposed to reduce the look of enlarged pores and uneven texture in just 4 weeks.

The Murad system sounds amazing. 92% of users experienced a reduction of acne breakouts in just 3 days! It works to reduce blemishes and wrinkles for a clear, more youthful complexion.

Featuring the latest scientifically advanced formulas containing anti-bacterial Silver, encapsulated Salicylic Acid and Kombucha Collagen Defense™—you’ll have breakouts and wrinkles running for cover!

The two-step Reversion Acne Control System by Therapon controls three of the primary factors causing acne: excess oil, bacteria, and clogged pores.

Other acne products attempt to combat acne with Benzoyl Peroxide which is less effective at eradicating bacteria, is only a mild exfoliator and is irritating in higher concentrations. Reversion Antimicrobial Wash eradicates 99.9% of bacteria found on the skin surface for up to 12 hours and helps control excess oil on the skin surface. Reversion Acne Medication is comprised of Lactic and Salicylic Acid and effectively exfoliates the skin surface, preventing clogged pores and future breakouts.

Do you get adult acne? What are your secret weapons?

  1. I love the Murad line, but I’ve never ponied up to pay for the full set (I’ve only used samples). My current go-to is Olay Total Effects for acne… which I hope is not discontinued now, thanks to the new set you’ve posted. 🙂
