WHY AM I GETTING ADULT ACNE?

I’ll give you the best acne treatment for adults that targets the possible sources of adult acne. These are steps you can begin immediately to reset your mind, body and spirit.
BREATHE
Inhale. Exhale. Sounds to simple, right? We breathe without thinking about it. If we didn’t, well, we would cease to exist. It’s not IF you breathe, it’s HOW you breathe. When we are busy bees running from one task to the next, we tend to take quick, shallow breaths. Breathe deeply. Place one hand on your belly and one on your heart. Inhale through your nose, letting your breath expand your belly then chest. Let your breath fill your body as if you are filling a glass of wine from the bottom to the top. This is triggering the part of your nervous system responsible for rebalancing the systems of the body. Plus, your lungs are the pump for your detoxifying lymphatic system. Before each meal, practice breathing exercises for 1 to 5 minutes. Repeat a skin healing mantra in your mind: “I am beautiful, even though my skin is not perfect.” “My skin is healing.” “I trust my body to heal my skin.” Think about the oxygen of your breath infused with the message of self-love permeating every cell of your being.
GET YOUR SWEAT ON

SKIN REGIMEN BY COMFORT ZONE
Your home skin care ritual matters and if you are dealing with aging and acne it can be difficult to know what to use. The best treatment for adult acne is Skin Regimen by Comfort Zone. It targets the internal and external factors causing stress in the skin. The Skin Regimen protocol for adult acne is:
Step 1: Prepare
Cleansing Cream: Mix a pea size amount with water. Apply later to skin in upward circles. Rinse off the pat dry. Use morning and night.
Enzymatic Powder: FAVORITE PRODUCT ALERT! Great for absorbing that excess oil. I see immediate results after I use this. Sprinkle a half teaspoon of powder into you hand, add water, rub between palms to foam, then apply to skin in gentle, upward circles. You can also make a thicker paste by using less water and leave on your breakout for 5 minutes. Rinse with water. Use every day when flared then three times a week in the morning or evening after cleansing to maintain.
Step 2: Recharge
Microalgae Essence: Contains unicellular algae to stimulate cellular metabolism. This will speed new healthy cells to the surface, clearing and energizing your skin. Press 3 to 5 drops into skin after cleansing working upward from the neck. Should absorb into skin quickly. If it doesn’t, use less product.
Step 3: Correct
1.85 Hyaluronic Booster: Contains macro, micro and cross-linked hyaluronic acid. Three kinds?? I know!! What this means is hydration retention, absorption, and protection from enzymes that degrade hyaluronic acid. Product wise, hyaluronic acid is your best line of defense against aging. It holds 1000 times its weight in water, keeping your cells healthy and your breakout healing. Dispense 8 drops into the palm of your hand. Use the fingertips of your other hand to apply the product to your face. Start at your forehead and work downwards adding more product as needed. Use morning and night after cleansing and Essence. Just like the Essence, this should absorb quickly into the skin.
Tea Tree Booster: This handy spot treater contains tea tree and alpha hydroxy acids, working overnight to zap those zits. It contains Use in the evening on blemishes.
Tripeptide Cream: This is a light moisturizer. Don’t freak out! It’s okay to use a little moisturizer even on breakouts. It will lock in the hydration you want for your cells and protect your skin from moisture loss and the environment. Dehydrated skin could exacerbate your breakout. In the morning, use a pinki dab amount every day after booster.
·Step 4: Reset
