Acne in the 30s and onward

47 now, and still using some form of the regimen during the day: pea-sized amount of 5% Benzagel mixed with petroleum jelly and SPF 50 moisturizing sunscreen. Keeps my skin mostly clear. For an uncomm...

It's been a million years since I've posted. I'm almost 46 now, but still need a little help to keep clear. But I'm still using the regimen, more or less: 1 finger BP once a day at night, sometimes wi...

Well, I'm 38 and still on the Regimen. Although, I don't have to be nearly as religious about it to keep pretty much clear. I'll still get a spot or two every few weeks, but I could go months at a tim...

Things are still going well. Had some minor, non-inflammatory spots in the past few weeks, but nothing major. Pleased overall with my skin's steadiness.   Cam >B)

Got a medium-sized spot on my right jawline. It's going to take a few days to calm down, and it's not the kind that comes to a head. Other than that, things are going well, skin-wise.   Cam >B...

One spot on my forehead surfaced yesterday. It was pretty minor, and should be gone--except some pinkness--tomorrow.   Cam >B)

Oh brother. I've been doing the Regimen religiously. It seems as though there's something missing because I'm still getting small break-outs, especially around my nose--not a typical break-out area fo...

Still totally clear. I've even been trimming my beard every few days--something that would typically irritate and cause a spot or two--without incident. I'm feeling bold. Maybe I'll even shave down to...

The switch to the old Regimen has helped a lot. I think using a bar soap is out for me. My skin is less dry, and I'm not getting the persistent irritation spots.   Two days totally clear.   ...

I've been getting tiny spots on my nose for a while now. This is not normally a break-out area for me, but it tends to break out when I'm doing something irritating. Could it be the Cetaphil Gentle Cl...

The scabrous mess under my nose is much less scabrous and messy. With the twice-daily exfoliation with NHSFL, it might even be presentable by tomorrow. At least it's no longer embarrassingly obvious. ...

So the current regimen has been working really well for me.   But I got a cold a week or so ago. And with a cold, I got a runny nose, which I remedied with some good old-fashioned kleenex. Of co...

I've been using the new Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion SPF 15 for Sensitive Skin for a couple of months now, and I can officially say, "IT SUCKS!" It's made me break out in areas that I don't b...

Screw the zinc pyrithione shampoo. Instead, doing the Regimen twice a day on my back as well has cleared it up totally. I have to wear white shirts underneath my coloured ones, but that's a small pric...

The spot on my back is calming down a bit after I dealt with it. I'm still using the dandruff shampoo with zinc pyrithione, and it's keeping my back pretty clear. Just that one spot.   My face is...

Still no new spots, except one on my back. Still it's only one. The Spectro moisturizer is still keeping my skin moist without breaking me out.   All good news.   Cam >B)

Still no new spots. Why do I ever stray from the basic Regimen?   In other news, I got a sample of Spectro's moisturizer for dry skin with my cleanser, and I really liked it. It's really thick an...

The two nasty ones--on my left cheek and to the right of my nose--have shrunk to flat and are now just pink. No new ones to replace them, yet.   It's starting to be consistently chilly here in Va...

So far so good. No new spots. The two nasty ones--on my left cheek and to the right of my nose--are no longer painful to the touch. That means that they'll slowly shrink over the next couple of days. ...

Thanks for the messages, Willow569 and kristen126.   Last night, I found two more of those small, non-inflammatory spots in my beard area--very frustrating. I've been trying so many things--Regi...

Heya Kristin126, congratulations on your success with the Regimen.   Mostly my anti-aging routine now involves light exfoliation and sun protection. I had been using Diacneal for its retinoid pr...

Geez Louise. Well, I have two spots where I don't usually get them: one on my upper left cheek and one to the right of my nose. They both started out really superficial, and I've left them alone, but ...
