No age group is immune to acne. My mama had a bit at age 92. She tended to rub her face a lot. It wasn't a lot just one pimple here and there. Mostly her forehead and cheek. She would often get headaches .. 71 1/2 year old me too … we rub and the bumps appear. She also had chin hairs and would pick at them. I or my husband would pluck them out for her. Sometimes a hair follicle gets irritate and will cause a bump.

I have allergies .. not just to pollen, but things like smoke, perfumes, detergents, fabric softeners and air fresheners. I am also allergic to some medications. These cause a fine rash. I am also sensitive to whatever is in crackers and chips. I get a fine rash on my face and chest .. used to include my upper arms .. when I eat a dozen Ritz cracker or a serving of animal or graham crackers. The culprit does not seem to be flour .. I think it is one of the preservatives. I have stomach and esophagus problems and am limited on which foods they like. They love crackers and cookies. Homemade cookies I do fine with, but rash comes with packaged cookies. I should start making my own crackers to avoid the processed foods.

To help your skin with acne and rashes I recommend using Cetaphil bar cleanser. It looks and feels like soap.. but contains no soap. It needs to stay on for at least 20 seconds to kill bacteria. I just give my face and neck a real good massage with it in the mornings. I usually take my shower in the afternoon or evening and use the cleanser instead of soap. It is fragrance free .. but everything has a natural smell .. to me smells like a mild Lava Soap that my daddy used to wash his hands with after work. Not unpleasant. After patting dry I use lotion or creme … Cetaphil is my brand.. but any Non-comedogenic (means will not clog pores) lotion or creme that is gentle on the skin you prefer. Cerva is good brand too. If you have aloe plants you can use the aloe on your skin. Mama would get rashes in the foods of her body and that really helped .. if it did not I then used apple cider vinegar and between the two I kept down what the liquid wash did not. I was not using the Cetaphil cleanser yet.
