WRINKLES AND ACNE – AN UNLIKELY MARRIAGE

The Knife Coach® Comes to Your Rescue For All Your Beauty Afflictions

(HealthNewsDigest.com) - Your skin is aging, but you still get pimples and blackheads every so often – and you’re almost ready for menopause! You are not alone. Acne and wrinkles on the same face is a lot more common than you think. It may feel like your hormones are playing tricks on you and in actual fact, they are. Stress also adds to adult pimple problems, which leads to lack of sleep, dark circles, and wrinkle-causing dehydration. It’s a vicious cycle. (Wendy Lewis,Beauty Columnist - HealthNewsDigest.com)

Need help with how to cope? Aim to strike a balance between controlling oiliness and breakouts, and keeping skin hydrated and smooth. Avoid harsh facial cleansers while your skin is irritated or inflamed from acne lesions.  Wash skin with warm water and a dollop of detergent-free cleanser such as Aveeno Positively Radiant Cleanser (www.drugstore.com), with moisture-rich soy extracts. Don’t over cleanse, which strips skin of its natural moisture content.

Apply a small amount of a light lotion while skin is still damp to lock in moisture. True wrinkle creams may be too rich and pore-clogging for blemish-prone skin, even if the date of birth on your driver’s license tells you otherwise. Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins® Mega Mushroom Face Serum (www.origins.com) offers good anti-aging defense without the heaviness of a cream. Another tip is to avoid using a moisturizer by day plus a greasy sunscreen, especially in humid weather. This is where multi-tasking can save your face. DDF Daily Matte (www.ddfskin.com) has SPF15 with a non-greasy texture, perfect for under foundation.

For an occasional eruption, try the Zeno® Pro Acne Clearing Device (www.myzeno.com) to stop it in its tracks, without the drying effects of benzoyl peroxide or drugstore blemish busters.
