What is it about your 30's not only do you have to deal with the fact that mini skirts are a distant memory but your skin seems to just let you down. Crying or Very sad

I had great skin in my teens and 20's and then all of a sudden I turn 30 and it is like BANG I have reverted to a teenager with breakout galore. My beautician said that your skin changes every 7 years and my friends in their 40's say it gets worse because after the acne comes wrinkles. Does anyone have the same problems and advice on this Question

ah, that sucks. Confused

have you considered giving either retin-a or copper peptides a shot? both can potentially attack the double front of both acne and wrinkles, so they may be worth investigating. retin-a is a prescription retinoids ... copper peptides can be purchased from www.skinbiology.com. there's actually a recent thread regarding copper peptides that you might want to look into. in any case, if you're a cp newbie, start slow, and gradually increase to super cp, COP2x, etc. hope this helps!!

I think it is due to my indulging more - chocolates, drinks....whereas when I was a teenager, I had a very healthy diet, got regular excercise and so benefited my skin.

So, now, I have tried to cut down on my food indulgences and try to get regular moderate excercise. I see my skin improves if I eat more fresh vegs than not.

What is good is that the skin is quite adaptable - you can reverse the effects if you take care of it. Here's wishing you well.

I'd recommend proper exfoliation. I think that the circulation gets a big sluggish as we age. Manual and chemical exfoliation should help get the good skin of your 20s back. I, for one, have a healthier diet and lifestyle from my 20s but don't appear to be benefiting much from that!!!! Use of JM Bioclear, Epidermix II and other goodies have made a good difference. Take care.

I think this time your acne is associated with a hormonal change. You should go and see a dermatologist.

I'm sorry you feel so sad right now. I had great skin when I was a teen but once I hit 20s it's bad bad skin, only now, in my 30s my skin is starting to behave and is nice back to me.

For Acne, I seriously would ask you to go see a Derm, they will be able to give you something to fix it, internally or externally. I tried in my 20s all kinds of treatment, only much later in my 20s then I went to a doctor and Differin and eventually retin A fixes my acne.
