Adult Acne at 40: The Surprising Fix I Didn’t Expect

Описание: Adult acne at 40 is real, and it can be incredibly frustrating, especially when the pimples show up on the days that matter most. In this episode of The Warm Talks, I share the surprising spot treatment that helped calm my inflamed, hormonal breakouts — a simple baby product you probably already know.

I talk about the small “miracle” I found in the baby aisle, the ingredients that make it effective (zinc oxide, panthenol, and occlusives), and why dermatologists warn that it should only be used as a spot treatment, never all over the face.

This episode is for anyone who has prepared for an important meeting, a presentation, or a big event, only to have a painful pimple appear right on time. Because how we feel in our skin truly affects how we show up, how we speak, and how confident we feel, especially in our 30s and 40s.

Inside this video, I share my experience with adult and hormonal breakouts at 40, the unexpected spot treatment that worked for me, the simple science behind why it helps calm inflammation, why nappy cream must only be used on individual pimples, how I apply it safely in my nighttime routine, and a gentle reminder that every woman goes through moments like this.

This is not medical advice, just my personal routine and research. If you have persistent or severe acne, please speak with a dermatologist.

And if you’re new here, welcome. The Warm Talks is a space where we explore the realities women face in our bodies, in our confidence, and in the way we show up in the world. Feeling good in our skin is not superficial; it’s part of how we speak, lead, and move through our day with presence and ease.

Thank you for being here.
Warmly,
Angie
