21.01.2022 D I E T - R E L A T E D breakouts // . . These generally occur when something in the diet is not agreeing with us, it can be due to the types of food (ie. dairy and sugar driving inflammation); organs may be struggling to process certain things like sugar, alcohol and fatty foods; digestive system not functioning optimally or there could be a disruption to or an imbalance of the microbiome (to keep it super simple).... Breakouts caused by the diet are often seen along the forehead, around the eyebrows and temples, between the eyebrows and around the cheeks, but it can also be seen all over the face, ultimately depending on the individual and what’s going on internally. We address these breakouts by addressing the diet. How often are you having gluten / dairy / sugar / soy / refined foods? How does your body react after you eat certain foods? Take the time to pay attention to how your body responds to foods and how you feel afterwards, this can tell you a lot about what does and doesn’t agree with you. Try doing a food journal for a week noting symptoms you feel after eating certain foods and paying attention to bowel movements too (your says a lot about what’s going on internally). Acne, breakouts, congestion, oiliness, dryness, dehydration, sensitivity are all indications that something internal or external isn’t working efficiently or is imbalanced. It’s just a matter of diving deeper and finding the root cause @_augustobm

02.01.2022 H O R M O N A L breakouts // . . For women, these tend to occur around that time of the month. For some it will be up to 10 days before their cycle begins, for some it will be a few days before and for others it can be during or after their cycle has finished.... Hormonal breakouts tend to appear around the jaw and chin areas and can be deep and inflamed. Other factors that can influence hormones include soy-based foods and food products, food additives, stress, endocrine disrupting chemicals and foods high in insulin-like growth factors that stimulate the rapid production of skin cells and sebum (skin’s natural oils) creating imbalance and chaos on the skin. Hormonal breakouts need to be addressed through the diet, assessing hormone status (especially for PCOS-type cases), addressing stress, lifestyle & environmental factors as well as looking at what products (personal care, fragrances, cleaning, etc) are being used consistently that may be influencing or disrupting normal hormonal functioning.

01.01.2022 S T R E S S related breakouts // . . Stress, diet and hormonal breakouts can all be inter-related as stress influences our hormones and diet; and our diet affects our hormones and mood, which can lead to stress. It’s a vicious cycle if all factors aren’t addressed.... Breakouts due to stress can be seen in our hormonal areas of the face (jaw and chin), it can also be seen on the forehead, around the cheeks or all over the face. It’s important to address what’s causing the stress and work on strategies to better manage stress. Address eating habits when stressed and look for healthier alternatives. Personal self-care is key, looking at how you’re taking care of yourself through your habits and daily rituals, diet, movement, sleep, thoughts and beliefs, aspirations, connections and downtime. Addressing stress will benefit the both the diet and hormones and in turn benefiting the skin
