Your skin is information, not a flaw.

When we’re still breaking out despite doing everything “right,” it’s usually a sign something deeper needs attention, and the liver is often where we start.

To our beautiful clients and community,

As many of you know, we built this business together as sisters and sadly, our incredible dad has passed away.

If you’ve noticed we’ve been a little slower at responding to emails over the last few weeks, it’s because we’ve been staying close and making some final memories with dad during this time.

Our doors will be closed for a short period while we take time to grieve and be with our family. We truly appreciate your patience, kindness and understanding.

If you have an upcoming appointment, we will be in touch if it needs to be rescheduled. If you don’t hear from us, please assume your appointment will be going ahead as usual.

We will still be checking calls and emails and will respond when we have the capacity to do so.

Thank you again for all of your support and understanding during this time.

Karina & Kylie

Whether you’re thinking about starting, already taking one, or have recently stopped — this is where we come in.

GLP-1 medication can be a powerful tool, but nutrition is what makes the results sustainable.

What determines the long-term outcome is everything happening around them:
Your nutrition.
Your muscle mass.
Your metabolism.
Your relationship with food.
Your habits once the medication stops.

Before starting, we assess the foundations firs, nutritional status, deficiencies, bloodwork, eating patterns, and whether there’s anything likely to impact your experience.

During treatment, the focus shifts to protecting what rapid weight loss can compromise:
Muscle.
Nutrient stores.
Energy.
Metabolic health.

And after?

This is the part most people aren’t prepared for.

Because maintaining results requires more than appetite suppression. It requires a way of eating that actually works long term, without restriction, fear, or constantly “starting over.”

If you’re considering a GLP-1 medication, here’s what we’d want you to know first.

The medication can be a powerful tool, but preparation is what makes the difference between short-term results and long-term change.

Protein, nutrients, movement, mindset, this is the part that often gets skipped, and it’s the part that matters most.

ACNE-SAFE FOODS, FULL LIST + WHY ↓

Alliums (garlic, onions, leeks, shallots, chives, scallions)
→ Your body makes glutathione (it
master detox antioxidant) from the sulfur compounds in these.

Cruciferous veg (broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, bok choy)
→ These help your body break down and clear excess oestrogen, which is a big driver of hormonal breakouts.

Omega-3s (salmon, sardines, walnuts, chia seeds, flaxseed, mackerel)
→ Lower the inflammation, that’s making your breakouts red, swollen, and slow to clear.

Fibre (lentils, chia seeds, oats, apples, sweet potato, flaxseed)
→ Feeds the good bacteria in your gut and keeps hormones moving out of your body the way they should.

Antioxidants (blueberries, spinach, sweet potato, pecans, pomegranate, green tea) \
→ Fight the oxidative stress that’s breaking down your skin and slowing repair between breakouts.

Protein (eggs, salmon, lentils, tempeh, beef, pasture-raised chicken)
→ Your skin can’t rebuild collagen, repair tissue, or balance hormones without enough of it.

Save this for your next grocery run.

GLP-1 medications are changing lives, and we’re not here to debate that.

But there’s a part of the conversation that often gets missed, and as a nutritionist, it’s the part we care about most: what happens to your muscle, your nutrition, and your relationship with food while you’re on them.

We put together the full picture so you can make an informed decision, whatever that looks like for you.

I’m a naturopath at a cheese stall, let me explain...

If you’re constantly breaking out, it’s worth looking beyond skincare and beneath the surface.

Dairy isn’t always the cause, but for some people, it can be a missing piece of the puzzle.

For some people, dairy can influence inflammation, hormones, and breakouts, but the answer isn’t simply cutting it out forever.

Because it’s not about removing foods for the sake of it. It’s about understanding what your body is actually responding to.

If you’re on a GLP-1 medication, or considering one, the way you eat matters just as much as the medication itself.

Because when appetite is significantly reduced, it’s not about eating perfectly, it’s about making every bite count.

Supporting your body with enough protein, fibre, and key nutrients becomes the difference between feeling depleted versus steady, energised, and well.

This isn’t about restriction. It’s about strategy.

A lot of what we see in clinic isn’t lack of effort.

It’s misdirected effort.

Clients come in doing all the “right” things, or what they’ve been told is right, and their skin is still reactive, inflamed, and not improving.

Here’s what’s often making things worse:

- Over-washing, stripping the barrier and disrupting the microbiome.
- Cutting out dairy, without ever addressing the gut driving the reaction.
- Layering actives, five at once, no strategy, and a compromised skin barrier.
- Treating the skin topically, while completely ignoring the hormonal cycle underneath it.
- Starting supplements, new ones every few weeks, with no consistency or clinical direction.
- Labelling it “hormonal acne”, and accepting it as something you just have to live with.

This is where most people get stuck, because it’s not about doing more.

It’s about doing the right things, in the right order, based on what your body is actually asking for.

If you’re ready to approach it differently, we’re here.

This isn’t anti-medication, it’s what you deserve to know before you start...

GLP-1 medications are being prescribed more than ever, often positioned as a simple solution for weight loss.

But clinically, we’re seeing a different side emerge.

- Nausea and vomiting, especially as doses increase.
- Muscle loss, not just fat loss, and this has long-term metabolic implications.
- Nutrient deficiencies, B12, iron, calcium, vitamin D.
- Slowed digestion, which changes how food is tolerated and absorbed.
- Weight regain, commonly seen once the medication is stopped.

These are parts that don’t get talked about.

Because when you understand what’s happening beneath the surface. you can protect your metabolism, your muscle mass, and your long-term health while using these tools.
