Adult-onset acne, it’s a thing, apparently a BIG thing. A study published in the Journal of Women’s Health found that of the 2895 women studied 45% of women aged 21–30 and 26% aged 31–40 had clinical acne. When I hit 30 out came the sun damage, pimples, puffiness and enlarged pores.
I spent a lot of money and time trying to find a solution. I felt completely defeated at times. Have you ever cut out coffee, dairy, gluten, eggs and nuts for weeks only to have your acne get worse?! Talk about torture.
I finally started to see noticeable and consistent changes in my skin when I started using these products, focused on balancing my hormones and supporting my lymphatic system.
Here’s my Top 5 Skincare Products for Breakouts and Acne Scars
- Juice Beauty’s -Green Apple Peel Pregnancy Mask
- Great for my sensitive skin!
- Gentle exfoliation with AHAs from apple juice and lemon.
- Immediately noticed a difference in the brightness of my skin.
- Helped clear my acne scars after using it consistently over a period of 3 months.
- Clean ingredients, formulated without parabens, petroleum, propylene or butylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfates, pesticides, phthalates, mineral oil, artificial dyes or synthetic fragrances.
- Origins’- Out of Trouble Mask
- It helped prevent and treat my acne when I used regularly.
- Worked on my bacne (back acne).
- Didn’t dry my skin out.
- Formulated without parabens, phthalates, sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, mineral oil, DEA, petrolatum, paraffin, polyethylene beads, formaldehyde & animal ingredients.
- Skin Gym Jade Facial Roller
- Roll out and up from the middle of your face, think gentle-lifting upward strokes first, and then down the neck. I finish with a quick criss-cross pattern over my outer jaw joints.
- Supports the lymphatic system, this system helps remove foreign bodies like bacteria from the bloodstream. Stagnation can cause fluid retention and a buildup of foreign bodies.
- Skin eruptions (breakouts) are a visual sign that something is imbalanced. Don’t ignore these signs. When I have any sign of imbalance, I support my elimination channels with exercise, lots of water, eating more fiber and fermented foods, dry skin brushing, and supplements to support my liver, kidneys and lymphatic system.

- A SPF that doesn’t clog my pores!!
- Soaks into my skin.
- Reef friendly sunscreen
- UVA and UVB protection
- Derma- E’s Vitamin C Micellar Cleansing Water
- Takes everything off without drying my skin out.
- Love the price
- Stable source of vitamin C that supports collagen, need I say more.
