Far from being a mere teenage memory, acne is affecting more and more adults, even after the age of 30 or 40. Stress, diet, hormonal imbalances… The causes of these late-onset blemishes are numerous, and sometimes unexpected. While conventional treatments can be harsh, there are natural solutions to soothe inflammation and restore clear skin. Let's explore these lesser-known factors of adult acne and the steps to take to get rid of it.
1. Stress, the silent disruptor
Have you noticed that your breakouts appear after a stressful period? It's not a coincidence. Chronic stress stimulates the production of cortisol, a hormone that disrupts the sebaceous glands and promotes skin inflammation. The result: clogged pores, subcutaneous pimples, and blemishes that are difficult to clear up.
The soothing touch: incorporate relaxing rituals into your routine, such as a facial massage with the Green Aventurine Anti-Blemish Roll-On . This stone, known for its soothing properties, helps relax facial muscles and rebalance the skin. By combining it with a purifying serum, you offer your skin a moment of relaxation that reduces stress and its effects on the skin. Another excellent way to soothe stress is to practice an acupressure massage with the Ridoki Gold Acu .
2. A diet that promotes inflammation
Did you know that some foods can worsen adult acne, even if they seem healthy at first glance? Dairy products, high glycemic index foods (white bread, refined cereals) and processed vegetable oils promote inflammation and stimulate sebum production.
Nutrition tip: prioritize foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, walnuts, chia seeds) and antioxidants (berries, green tea) for more balanced skin. Complete your routine with a decongesting action using the Cryo Roll-On , whose cooling effect helps reduce inflammation and tighten pores after a stressful day or a heavy meal.
3. Disrupted sleep, the enemy of the skin
Chronic sleep deprivation can disrupt hormone production and slow cell regeneration. The result: a dull complexion, blemishes that are slow to heal, and skin that marks more easily.
The relaxation reflex: adopt an evening ritual that promotes relaxation (yes, it's not "just" to feel good for a few minutes, it will improve the quality of your sleep!). A few minutes of massage with the Green Aventurine Roll-On , followed by an application of the Cryo Roll-On upon waking to awaken the skin and reduce puffiness, can make all the difference.
4. Poorly managed sweating after exercise
Exercising is excellent for the skin, but not cleansing your face after a workout can lead to bacterial growth. Sweat mixed with sebum creates an environment conducive to breakouts, especially on areas like the chin or back.
The perfect post-workout routine: after your workout, cleanse your face with a gentle gel, then apply the Cryo Roll-On to instantly soothe your skin and tighten pores. Its refreshing effect is ideal after an intense session.
In conclusion: adopt a holistic approach to address adult acne and achieve clear skin
Adult acne is often a reflection of an internal imbalance. By identifying these often-overlooked causes and adopting simple steps, it's possible to achieve healthier skin, naturally.
Our favorite duo: the Green Aventurine Roll-On for a relaxing and rebalancing massage, and the Cryo Roll-On to soothe inflammation and decongest the skin. Two invaluable allies for an effective and natural anti-blemish routine.
