Menopausal Acne

J.,
I had the same thing happen to me when I turned 36. I started using a sample of Mary Kay cleaner and moisturize, in a week I was sold because all the acne cleared up and my skin is back to normal. I have to be honest I was so happy to be back to my old self I became a consultant:)
Anyway Mary Kay is my suggestion but I would say if you can get samples of any product you are interested, take it. You have to fine what will work for you and I know you will.

Hi J.!

I started getting acne when I turned 30! I changed my makeup to all natural with no harsh chemicals and changed my face cleansers so they are also all natural without any harsh chemicals. Now I get an occasional pimple but no where near as bad!

If you would like to know more about the products I use please let me know I would be happy to share it with you

Hi J.,

I am a representative for Sensaria Natural Bodycare. One of my coworkers had a hysterectomy and developed extremely oily skin & acne. She has since gone on Sensaria's skincare regimen for oily skin and panics when she starts getting low. She ran out of the cleanser once and began breaking out terribly. The products are naturally based and affordable. Please let me know if I can help you with anything.

I have had luck using Reflex on myself, my oils but I think the stuff I found at Lush is pretty good too. All of it is pricey, but like what I use: it's all organic!

Check it out at Somerset. My son was not too thrilled as it is overwhelming in scent, so if you are sensitive to scents too as I am, be prepared! ;)

Sure it's acne and not rosasea. If it is rosasea you can get medication ... or eliminate caffeen from you diet. If your cheeks are really rosy with little bumps it's probably roseasa and not uncommong for you age.

I'm 34 and have always had breakout kind of acne...nothign severe but there was almost always multiple blemishes on my face...
I'm not sure if it will help you, but I started using Bare Essentuals makeup...ya know the swirl tap and buff from the infomericials?...and on emonth later my face is COMPLETELY clear. I don't even wash my face every night. I cannot believe that it was my makeup causing all that...and I used higher end makeups like Clarins, Mary kay, and sometimes loreal. My face cleaners when I used them were almost always more expensive lines. Nothing worked.
But this is amazing...you'd think I work for the company the way I sound but it's true!

Go see a good dermatologist. It may not be acne. You may have developed an allergy or something else may be going on. The dr can tell you what is causing the breakouts and exactly how to treat it. If you are trying to treat it as acne and its not you will only make it worse. I know how fustrating this can be since I had perfect skin when I was young and now have to deal with a butterfly rash from my lupus. Sometimes it is horrible how people can treat you just because your face is broken out. Hang in there and go see the dr. Dermatologists realy can help.

Hi J. - The Proactive system really works well and isn't harsh on your skin. You may want to give it a try. I empathize with you. Tanning works well for me, too.

Hi J., I have been using estroven, it's a herbal supplement that has been helping with my night sweats and other perimenopausal issues. It is an over the counter supplement available at most anywhere and you can get a coupon at their website.

Hi,

I'm wondering what your skin care routine is.... Sometimes just changing it may help. I'm a Mary Kay Consultant and MK has a lot of great products you might want to give a try. Maybe you just need to change the type you are using, such as not using for dry skin but more for acne prone skin. Let me know if I can help in any way.

My company works with a manufacturer of a product created for exactly this! It is called PrevaDerm Anti-Blemish Formula and will certainly help you. If you want more information, I am available to serve!

Tea tree oil. It's a miracle cure. You can find it at any health store or at wal-mart for 1/3 of the price. It comes in a little 1-2 oz. jar. I dab it on with a cotton swab. It doesn't take much at all. Also, the Proactiv products really work. I empathize with you.

As we get older our body changes. I would suggest you take a look at what you are eating! Diary products are a big culprit. Try doing a food diary for a couple of weeks and then pay attention to when your acne seems to get worse.
Hope this helps!

Hi Janyne,

I would strongly suggest that you look into the Clarity line of facial care products on my website at www.warmspirit.org/rochellemorton. Our products are all-natural and there is a 30-day money back guarantee. The Clarity Blemish Cleansing Gel is formulated specifically for acne and blemish-prone skin and helps to restore balance to your skin. Sometimes, the drugstore cleansers contain harsh chemicals and extra preservatives and fragrances that cause more irritation rather than addressing our issues. I have a customer that is in her 40's who uses this product every day and night and swears by it. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Hi J.! Try Rodan and Field's "Proactive" acne series, worked WONDERS for me! It is just a cleanser, toner (which I never used) and lotion. I can't remember the website right now, but google it and you can order it.

Hope this helps

ProActiv worked very well for me. I use to get big sytic acne, since I've been using Pro Active it has cleared up my problem in a dramatic way. Best of luck. K.

ProActiv, ProActiv, ProActive! It works and it is easy and it is relatively cheap...look online.
