As more and more protein granules accumulate inside older cells, they take on a slightly bumpy exterior. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: medium;"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Continuing to move up closer to the surface, these protein-stuffed cells start to flatten and smooth out, and various waxes, fats, and sugars glue all these cells together to form the brick-and-mortar-wall-like top layers that make up the protective, slightly acidic barrier we call the Acid Mantle. These days, you might hear it referred to as "the skin's natural barrier". <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><span style="color: #274e13;"></span></p></div></div><a href="https://acnewhisperer.blogspot.com/2021/03/4-ways-to-reduce-keratosis-pilaris.html#more"></a>The AcneWhispererhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01489926625474390800noreply@blogger.com0Chicago, IL, USA41.8781136 -87.629798213.567879763821153 -122.7860482 70.188347436178844 -52.473548199999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645659386014368711.post-44178528680732672692021-03-03T01:49:00.000-06:002021-03-03T01:49:10.422-06:00How To Manage Body Acne<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><span style="text-align: left;">I speak extensively about facial acne on this blog, but in addition to tweaking skincare and make-up habits, people who suffer from Adult Acne also sometimes have to deal with acne on various parts of the body.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UvrzD_EBIRM/YD710VRmMTI/AAAAAAAADIA/-j9TKXrDbbg1a83j-2cMgpiW7t06riZMACLcBGAsYHQ/how%2Bto%2Bmanage%2Bbody%2Bbreakouts.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="Here are 8 ways to win the battle with your body acne.

Friction is especially a factor in cases where exercise is not followed immediately by a shower. Adding to the mix is one of the biggest issues of all; pore clogging ingredients in dryer sheets being deposited from clothes and bedding onto the skin. <br><br>In order to feel confident baring your skin as the weather warms up, here are a few tips and suggestions on clearing up existing body breakouts and keeping them away for good.</span></div><span><span style="color: #274e13;"></span></span><a href="https://acnewhisperer.blogspot.com/2021/03/how-to-manage-body-acne.html#more"></a>The AcneWhispererhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01489926625474390800noreply@blogger.com2Chicago, IL, USA41.8781136 -87.6297982-2.4403712863321445 131.74520180000002 86.196598486332135 52.995201799999975tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645659386014368711.post-19778984623932395122021-02-17T22:53:00.006-06:002021-02-18T14:46:26.626-06:008 Steps To Reducing Redness<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Georgia; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wsI47KZ-K9s/YC1fePHh8hI/AAAAAAAADGk/eE5_BTuuMbo11TdheWFNnUUcuQP-7zPGQCLcBGAsYHQ/8%2Bsteps%2Bto%2Breduced%2Bredness.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="There are many sources of skin redness, but the right skincare routine with the right products can help no matter what is causing your redness!" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="800" height="453" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wsI47KZ-K9s/YC1fePHh8hI/AAAAAAAADGk/eE5_BTuuMbo11TdheWFNnUUcuQP-7zPGQCLcBGAsYHQ/w402-h453/8%2Bsteps%2Bto%2Breduced%2Bredness.jpg" title="There are many sources of skin redness, but the right skincare routine with the right products can help no matter what is causing your redness!" width="402"></a></div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #274e13;">In my previous post, "</span><a href="https://acnewhisperer.blogspot.com/2021/02/adult-acne-or-is-it-really-rosacea.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Adult Acne? ...Or Is It Really Rosacea?</span></a><span style="color: #274e13;">" </span></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: medium;">I went over the differences between adult acne and rosacea and how to tell exactly what kind of breakouts you're experiencing.

However, for people with acne, or even just skin on the oilier side, dryness can be quite baffling, becuase we're just not used to it. On top of that, this kind of dryness can have many people breaking out more in the winter than in the summer, even though the opposite may seem to make more sense. Dryness isn't not just about itchiness, flaking, tightening, or redness. Personally, my skin always used to look far worse in winter as an adult, with more breakouts, dullness and redness. My oily adult skin always looked its best in summer. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: medium;">Knowing what to do about winter dryness starts with an understanding of how it happens in the first place. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><span><span style="color: #274e13;"></span></span><a href="https://acnewhisperer.blogspot.com/2021/02/surviving-winter-dryness-with-adult-acne.html#more"></a>The AcneWhispererhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01489926625474390800noreply@blogger.com1Chicago, IL, USA41.8781136 -87.6297982-37.483114235579144 131.74520180000002 90 52.995201800000004tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645659386014368711.post-71869204440434311932021-01-27T16:30:00.003-06:002021-03-20T15:14:30.511-05:00Breakout Stakeout - Common Causes of Adult Acne<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: medium;">Have you ever had an acne breakout as an adult that you <i>didn't</i> try to explain yourself?

There is no question that friction and heat from mask wearing play the greatest roles, but there has to be meaning in the fact that for so many the acne also gets bad in areas otherwise designated as "hormonal"; the jawline, sides of the chin, inner cheeks, and lower central forehead. Stress must play a roll, too!</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span></span></span></p><a href="https://acnewhisperer.blogspot.com/2021/01/the-year-of-maskne-adult-acne-experts.html#more"></a>The AcneWhispererhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01489926625474390800noreply@blogger.com0Chicago, IL, USA41.8781136 -87.629798213.567879763821153 -122.7860482 70.188347436178844 -52.473548199999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645659386014368711.post-13931425341198445532017-10-06T20:00:00.000-05:002018-12-26T13:45:23.076-06:00Sensitive Skin?

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">By the yearly sales of moisturizers in this country alone, you would never know that only 10% of the world's entire population actually has genetically dry skin. The rest of us with dryness issues all have **<i>dehydrated</i>** skin. The problem is, the skincare industry often doesn't seem to understand this concept. The result? Genetically oily skin that's leaching water all day long gets <i>lubricated</i> with heavy, often pore-clogging, moisturizers instead of hydrated, and truly dry skin still doesn't get the replenishment of lipids, cholesterol or water that it loses all day long, either. How does this relate to the possibility that your skin isn't actually sensitive? If you have Adult Acne, or even just raw, irritated skin, it's actually not a safe assumption that breaking out from products means your skin is sensitive!</span></span><br>

A Solution For Your Ingrown Hair Blues...<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px;">As the summer months transition into autumn, chances are that you’re wearing more jeans, yoga pants, leggings, etc. You may also have noticed an upsurge in the severity of your ingrown hairs along your bikini line and even extending down your inner thighs.</span> <span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px;">Since I began performing waxing services over 18 years ago, I have long noticed that the frequency of ingrown hairs along the bikini line seems to increase during changes in weather, particularly from warmer into colder months.</span><br>
<br>
<img alt="If you notice more frequent or severe ingrown hairs when the weather changes." border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D7JbAXVsVjo/VC2f0m3UrZI/AAAAAAAAAbM/k-1K4ZVXR18/s1600/ingrown-hair-jeans-friction-pressure-rubbing-tight.jpg" style="text-align: center;" title="Ingrown hair issues can increase with introduction of rough material as the weather changes. Find out what you can do about it on The AcneWhisperer Blog." width="640"><br>
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;"><br></span>
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">So many questions about this phenomenon have run through my mind...</span><br>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: 20px;"><i>...Is it me? ...Is it my waxing technique?</i></span></span></span></blockquote>
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">If so, why would there be more ingrowns at that time of year? And why would the frequency of my clients' ingrown hairs increase compared to other months? If this really was connected to my waxing technique, why am I noticing more ingrown hairs on the sides of the client's bikini line rather than all over? ...</span></span></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px;">I also had to wonder why the ingrown hairs would also exist in those same outer/side-areas in people who had never even been waxed at all.</span><br>
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px;"><br></span>
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 15px;">Instead of focusing on myself, I began to ask my clients about their ingrown issues.</span><br>

Naturally, the time around Valentine's Day brings up questions about the chocolate-breakout connection.

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Do you have new jawline and neck breakouts that are bad enough to have you running to your doctor? Don’t go making an appointment just yet… This winter is cold but the weather keeps fluctuating. Sometimes it's humid with snow, sometimes bitter cold and dry. Nothing else bears the brunt of freezing cold like your skin. But you know what, while everyone is familiar with the drying and chapping effects of frigid winds, very few people take into account how the weather might affect adult acne. What makes winter different, why would adult acne breakouts be any different than now?</span><br>

<span style="font-family: "georgia";"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #274e13;">If you think the task of
removing eye makeup is a simple no-brainer, my </span><a href="http://www.acnewhisperer.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">experience</span></a><span style="color: #274e13;"> with hundreds of adult
acne clients over the years shows a different picture. Why?
It’s just removal of makeup, what’s the big deal?<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia";"><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: large;">Removal of a stubborn
coating of mascara involves quite a bit of rubbing. Thing
is, depending on the material used with makeup remover, it can also involve microscopic
scratching. This results in two really

from a different angle.</span><span style="color: #274e13;"> </span><span style="color: #274e13;">After asking at
Sephora, or perusing </span><a href="https://www.pinterest.com/acnewhisperer/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Pinterest</span></a><span style="color: #274e13;">, there's no doubt that you've come across the

<span style="color: #274e13; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #274e13;">Working on my </span><a href="http://www.acnewhisperer.com/"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Adult Acne Online Coaching</span></a><span style="color: #274e13;"> program, helping
people adjust their home routines to clear their breakout issues, coming across
some kind of DIY facial oil, mask or cleansing oil is an almost daily
occurrence. Between Pinterest, beauty
blogs and Facebook, the skincare consumer is bombarded with all sorts of advice
on how best to deal with acne in general, but particularly on how to save money
and health by making your own products right in your own kitchen. I can’t blame anyone for trying these
things. Who can possibly object to
saving money and guarding their health?</span></span></div>
