At 47 do you still get Acne?

I was just thinking to myself today - Girl! you are too old to get a zit - right in my laugh line the bugger planted itself!

I am in my late 30s and tend to get breakout about a week before my menses come. Herbs that work wonders at clearing up acne are: Echinacea taken orally and applied externally to the skin, Oregon grape root applied as a cream, tea tree oil applied to the skin, oregano and basil oil applied to the skin or taken orally.

Do you drink plenty of water.Sometimes when i eat alot of greasy foods i break out so now i stay away.Sometimes it might the food that you consume.

Some people just aren't meant to have clear skin. I'm only 24, but I still often get pimples and I'm sure this'll continue until the day I die :/ I'm really not happy about this, but it's something I just have to accept.

I'm 34 and still have breakouts. I'm expecting at the moment, so my skin is temporarily clear & glowing, but I know once the baby is born it'll be back just like with my other kids. My mom is in her 50s and still breaks out too. I'd guess it must be bad DNA.

I am 40. I only got acne when I was a teenager. My husband has a fair skin and he is also 40. He gets pimples from time to time especially on his nose. When he talked to a doctor about that, he told him that he has rosacea. He lived in Hawaii many years and he was exposed to the sun a lot. So now he has to do a laser treatment and hopefully that will get rid of it. As for me, I don't have acne but my face skin is very greasy and I don't like that. You see everybody has something heh? Nobody is perfect:-)

I used to break out, but I do not do as much. I try to avoid too much fatty food, which helps. I don't wear makeup and when I am stressed, it is my insides that are affected and down below. I think it is because you do have big pores, because I was breaking out in my teens. You have to be careful of the soap you use. Use on designed for oily skin with an astringent. If you were makeup, get one designed for problem skin that won't clog your pores. I do not know about herbal stuff, but if you go to a health food store and ask the saleslady, she might be able to help you.

my mother is 62 and she still gets them. some skin types are just prone. i'll tell you though..if somebody told me at 13 i'd still be getting pimples at 38,i would have strangled them LMAO!
