yeah I’ll have to have a look round, I have been more stressed recently and my periods have been irregular x
I'm 36 & have struggled my whole life! I currently use the me+ range from Superdrug, & have experimented to get to a routine that works for me.
2x a week: bha+aha exfoliator
Every other day: polyglutamic acid serum (they call it a booster)
2x per day: hyaluronic acid cleanser & ceramides moisturiser
Every night: cica gelly mask
As needed, morning & night: succinic acid anti blemish treatment
Mine is definitely hormone related - I have pcos - and gets worse a few days before my period.
The ordinary niamacide+zinc serum should help
La roche posay is gentle on my sensitive skin, but what worked for me was going on 'the pill' (one with high estrogen)
I’m in the same boat at you, never a spot in my teen life. Now I’m 26 and I’ve got acne. Its got to be something in the air, my sisters face is the same. It’s really odd isn’t it! Niamcide works a treat xx
aw good to know I’m not alone!! Thanks x
The only thing that helped mine was going on the pill unfortunately. Flared hugely during pregnancy and on,y went again when I went back onto the pill 😔
