Dealing with hormonal acne can feel like a never-ending cycle—just when you think your skin is under control, another breakout pops up.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Hormonal acne is common, but that doesn’t make it any less frustrating. The good news? With the right routine and a bit of patience, you can manage those breakouts and feel good in your skin again.
In this blog, we’ll explore what hormonal acne is, why it happens, and how to care for your skin to reduce flare-ups and boost your confidence.
Spoiler alert: blu beryl’s gentle, plant-based skincare has some great solutions to help along the way.
Hormonal acne is exactly what it sounds like—breakouts triggered by hormonal fluctuations. It’s most common during periods, pregnancy, and menopause, but it can also show up during times of stress (because cortisol, the stress hormone, likes to stir things up).
If you’re experiencing hormonal acne, it’s likely you’ll notice:
Sound familiar? If you’ve been there, you know how much hormonal acne can impact your mood and self-confidence. But don’t worry—there are ways to manage it.
When it comes to hormonal acne, less is more. Overloading your skin with too many products can disrupt its natural balance and make things worse.
That’s why gentle, plant-based skin care products are the way to go—calming your skin without triggering further irritation.
Hormonal acne-prone skin needs a cleanser that removes impurities without stripping away natural oils. Over-cleansing can lead to dryness, which only encourages your skin to produce even more oil. Not what we want.
Our Powder-to-Foam Cleanser gives you that perfect balance. It transforms from a smooth powder into a creamy lather, gently removing dirt and excess oil while respecting your skin barrier. Plus, it’s packed with natural clays and mushroom extracts to keep your skin feeling clean and refreshed—never tight.
It’s a myth that oily or acne-prone skin doesn’t need hydration!
In fact, skipping hydration can trigger even more oil production as your skin tries to compensate for dryness.
That’s where our Hydration Serum comes in. Lightweight and fast-absorbing, it locks in moisture without clogging pores. Formulated with Schizophyllum commune ferment filtrate, this serum also supports your skin’s microbiome, helping to maintain a healthy balance—key when dealing with hormonal acne.
When it comes to treating hormonal acne, harsh spot treatments can often do more harm than good. Instead of drying out your skin, look for products that support the healing process while also tackling uneven texture.
Our Age Control Serum is the perfect multitasker. While it’s great for reducing the appearance of fine lines, it also contains Schizophyllum commune carboxymethylated beta glucan, which helps calm inflammation and fade post-acne marks.
This makes it a great option for balancing hormonal breakouts and promoting smoother skin.
A healthy skin barrier is your best defense against breakouts, redness, and irritation. Hormonal acne can weaken the skin’s natural barrier, making it more vulnerable to environmental stressors.
Using a skin barrier repair cream or a lightweight moisturiser helps keep your skin protected and balanced. Our approach focuses on simple, plant-based ingredients that nourish the skin without overwhelming it.
Managing hormonal acne isn’t just about what you put on your skin—it’s also about taking care of yourself from the inside out.
Here are a few lifestyle tips that can help reduce flare-ups:
