Understanding Acne: Myths vs. Science
Let’s talk about acne. Almost everyone experiences it, yet it’s still so misunderstood. In this episode, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned—from the science behind what’s really happening in the skin to the reasons why acne is more common (and more chronic) than ever. We’ll talk about hormones, stress, gut health, and why the old approach of “just dry it out” doesn’t work. I’ll also explain how new, microbiome-friendly ingredients can treat acne gently and effectively—without irritation, and even during pregnancy. If you’re dealing with acne or supporting someone who is, I hope this episode helps you understand the condition better and gives you new tools to treat it with care.
