Today We Talk About

Emily's personal journey with acne- one of her most insecure times of her life.

Emily's intense breakouts starting at age 18; which lead her to being on Accutane and the physical and emotional struggles of being on such an intense drug

Emily's personal journey of getting clear; but then having flare ups of acne again at age 25 which lead her to an elimination food diet to help better control her inflammation

Emily really understanding her skin after becoming an esthetician and how diet and products can trigger acne

Spirulina and B12 are Emilys Kryptonite

Let’s talk about what acne actually is?

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become inflamed due to oil plugging the hair follicle. Sebum is a breeding ground for certain bacteria which can cause inflammation within the hair follicle… bacteria gets trapped, puss forms.. hello acne.

How we treat acne at the studio:

  • Face Reality Skincare
  • Mel received Face Reality Acne Finalist of 2021
