As we get to know our skin over the years, it can be difficult to keep up with what our skin wants alongside the evolving factors such as age, seasons, products etc. We\u2019ve all had our fair share of battling with spots and blemishes, popping up when we least expect it. Just as we think we\u2019ve missed our adolescent acne phase, the possibility of adult acne or post-adolescent acne can come along and be a hindrance when it comes to treating your skin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a few reasons and factors that may aggravate acne, and in this article we\u2019ll talk through possibilities to try to clear acne but also habits and routines you can incorporate to prevent adult acne from rising. There can be numerous factors that can influence your skin, whether that’s environmental aggressors or even hormone fluctuations. Skin can be full of surprises and knowing what your skin wants, finding the balance through products and a good skincare routine can be key factors in preventing the rise of blemishes and spots occuring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Does Adult Acne Occur? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Adult acne, also known as post-adolescent acne, can occur just after adolescence at around 25. The factors that cause adult acne are very similar to the factors that cause acne in adolescents.\u00a0 Ultimately, adult acne can also occur in your 30s, with the main cause being hormonal shifts throughout adulthood. With your skin producing too much sebum (oil), and therefore resulting in clogged pores that leave your skin with spots and blemishes. There are numerous products on the market from Obagi\u00ae, that can do wonders to your skin, are scientifically formulated to partner with acne prone skin and target adult acne in either preventing or containing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasons You May Have Adult Acne<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The four factors that directly contribute to acne are: excess oil production, pores becoming clogged by “sticky” skin cells, bacteria, and inflammation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.  Not Listening to your Skin’s Needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not listening to your skin’s needs can ultimately lead to making your skin feel worse, and if you have acne prone skin, treating it right and listening to what your skin needs can ultimately help when it comes to clearing and treating your skin. As the occurrence of acne produces excess oil and cloggs pores, the use of the right skincare products to treat or prevent this can be key. With key ingredients like that of Obagi Medical\u2019s Obagi360\u00ae Retinol 0.5 <\/a>and other gentle exfoliators with Lactic Acid products like Obagi Nu-Derm\u00ae Fx Exfoderm\u00ae Forte<\/a> can be wonderous when it comes to clearing but not aggravating the skin. Encouraging exfoliation and increasing cell turnover is ideal to target and regenerate acne healing, revealing newer and brighter skin.                                                                                                                                                                                                       <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Stressors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It can be tempting to continuously clean the skin, convincing yourself it will help clear those clogged pores before forming. However, irritating the skin and over-cleansing can lead to your skin feeling irritated and red due to the intense disturbances on the skin’s surface. It\u2019s important to use a frequent skincare routine, as regularly as the products recommend typically at the beginning of the day and at the end of the day. Using products that are specifically formulated for sensitive skin can be a good alternative to monitoring and reducing skin irritation from acne. These products will ensure you\u2019re receiving the right amount of cleansing, but they\u2019re also not irritating the skin and leading to an increased redness and dryness. Pure Obagi offers a range of sensitive skincare products such as the SUZANOBAGIMD\u2122 Foaming Cleanser,<\/a> perfect for that deep cleanse, whilst not stripping the skin and causing skin irritation. Rich with antioxidants to protect the skin against future stress factors, it\u2019s an ideal cleanser for those struggling with skin stressors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.  Hormonal Changes <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some people are simply genetically predisposed to have acne and family history can contribute to adult acne, an annoying uncontrollable factor. However, maintaining and caring for your skin when you either have a family history of acne or a fluctuation of hormonal changes can be key for success. Encouraging the use of Obagi products within a skincare routine to maximise each product’s ingredients effectiveness, is something we are passionate about, and at Pure Obagi, we have put together a range of bundles and skincare sets to level up your skincare routine as a whole.
