yes it is in fact there are people who have acne that are in their late twenties going into their thirties. what you can do to get rid of it is to go to a dermatologist ( it can be pricey) or you can try acne products in the stores oxy,neutrogena,biore or you can try proactive (i know a lot of people who have used it and it worked). Hope my advice help and you get rid of your acne because believe me I'm fighting with it too!

This is very normal, matter of fact you won't see the end of acne until your mid-twenty's; of course this may not be the case.
Yet what we eat influences our skin's state. Thus if you have a diet high in sugars and oils...you guessed it you will have oily skin.

yes this situation is very normal acne doesnt naturaly come from puberty. you could get it if you touch your face a lot with your hands or something like that.

It could be a # of things. It could be in your genes, your skin may be irritaed by different things, (makeup, types of soap, etc). Makeup was my worst problem and i went to cvs and got some of that acne free blackhead terminator stuff for acne and it cleared mine up. But it can come from diffrent things.

Normal, and very aggravating. Drs will range in solutions from keeping your face clean (like we forgot that!) to antibiotics and topical creams. The best luck I've had is with Cetaphyl face wash. You can find it in any drugstore and Walmart, etc.

Normal, unfortunately. I had acne until 40 and still have occasional breakouts!

YES. It is a shame but anytime your hormones are having a problem acne comes back, independent of age.

yes, it's normal. even after u go thru puberty, your body still changes until u are an adult. (like after 20) but if u r an adult, then u may have adult acne, because ur hormones still flunctuate. try proactiv, it works!

Yes. I have heard of people getting it when they are like 30. Somtimes it comes later in life when you never even had it as a child. So don't sweat it. Pro-Activ works well.

I am 27 and I still have issues with pimples. I believe as long as you have hormones that can flucuate, then you may have breakouts.
