Here are some frequently asked questions about skincare:
Why do I have acne breakouts when I’m already in my 30's?
You thought you were done with acne after your teenage years, and are horrified to find yourself dealing with acne in your 30s.
There are several causes of adult acne. They are stress, unsuitable skincare products and cosmetics, and hormones. Stress causes your oil glands to go into overdrive - clogging your pores. The use of unsuitable skincare products and cosmetics can lead to clogged pores if the texture is too rich or too drying, as the skin overcompensates by producing more sebum. And hormones cause the sebaceous glands to overact resulting in clogged pores and breakouts.
How does stress affect my skin?
Stress can cause your skin to break out. When the brain perceives stress, it triggers the adrenal glands to produce stress hormones. These thicken the hair follicle's lining, causing pores to clog, resulting in blackheads and whiteheads. If bacteria get trapped, it will result in a large pimple.
Stress also produces adrenaline which takes blood away from the skin. So, when you are stressed, your skin will look pale and dull. When stressed, the skin is stopped from reproducing healthy skin cells which causes dead layers of skin to show and this causes wrinkles and age spots.
