🌀1. Your skin barrier controls more than hydration.
It helps defend against environmental stressors and regulates water loss.
🌀2. Breakouts aren’t always caused by “dirty” skin.
Oil production, hormones, inflammation, occlusion and genetics can all play a role.
🌀3. Pigmentation requires patience.
Melanin production can be triggered by UV exposure, inflammation and hormonal changes.
🌀4. Skin can be dehydrated AND oily.
Dehydration refers to water content—not your skin type.
🌀5. Professional treatments work best as part of a strategy.
A facial can give your skin a boost, but long-term results come from combining professional treatments with the right home care.
