Having acne myself in 2018, after coming off hormonal contraception, I made multiple trips to the GP. I got a different prescription topical cream each time... with no questions about my menstruation cycle, habits, products or lifestyle factors. Hormonal blood tests were "normal", but my skin was saying otherwise.
The texture and inflammation of my skin was no longer hiding behind makeup,
and social events gave me huge anxiety.
I didnt want people to see me.
I guess no one truly understands how acne feels until you have experienced it, and therefore, years later, here I am helping others to relieve themselves of the confusion, overwhelm and frustration of trying to heal their skin.
