Adult acne is surprisingly common, and if you’re dealing with it, you’re far from alone. Here’s a closer look at why acne can persist well beyond the teenage years—and what you can do to support clear, balanced skin at every age.
- Hormonal Shifts
Hormones don’t stop influencing your skin once you reach adulthood. Fluctuations related to monthly cycles, stress, or even hormonal conditions like PCOS can increase oil production, making the skin more prone to acne. Ingredients in our Face Essentials Pack for Oily Skin are formulated to balance oil production, helping you manage these fluctuations and keep breakouts at bay.
- Diet Matters
Certain foods, particularly those high in refined sugars and dairy, can trigger inflammation and cause blood sugar spikes, both of which may lead to breakouts. Instead, try incorporating more nutrient-dense, whole foods—think leafy greens, berries, and foods rich in Omega-3s—which support skin health from the inside out.
- Sleep’s Impact on Skin
Quality sleep is critical for skin repair and regeneration. When sleep is compromised, it impacts stress and hormone regulation, both of which play a major role in breakouts. Prioritising rest can benefit your skin as much as it does your energy levels.
- Managing Stress
Stress triggers the release of cortisol, which in turn can boost oil production. Chronic stress doesn’t just affect your well-being; it affects your skin too. Small daily practices—whether it’s a brief walk, deep breathing, or simply unwinding with a book—can help lower stress, reducing the likelihood of stress-induced breakouts.
