Anti Aging

47 with normal to sometimes a little dry in some spots. 

I use an eye cream and moisturizer. Sometimes I may use vitamin C oil. It seems the more I try to take care of my skin the more it breaks out. I feel the only anti aging I am seeing is the acne of a teen on my face. Acne has never been an issue for me. Could some of this possibly be hormonal? 

Any recommendations?

Re: Anti Aging

@Jenmoore817,  your breaking out could entirely be hormonal. Is there a specific area of your face where you are prone to breakouts? Or a particular time of the month? Do you find yourself experiencing more breakouts after you've tried new products or the vitamin C oil? Have you seen a dermatologist? That would be my first recommendation. 

 

Like you, acne was never an issue for me when I was a teen. Then, at some point as an adult (probably starting in my mid-to-late 30s?), I started breaking out periodically - sometimes not just periodically. It gets better, though, at least for me, it took a while, along with a combination of dermatologist recommended treatments or prescriptions, changing my diet, moving to a more simple and minimal skincare routine, and just the passage of time.
