Stressed out? We get it. Been experiencing more breakouts lately, too? Can stress really affect the skin? 🤔 Turns out, stress causes hormone imbalance which can lead to things like breakouts, acne, dry skin, inflammation flare ups and redness. 🤓 Nerdy paragraph ahead: When we stress out, our body reacts by releasing cortisol (the stress hormone💢). These stress mediators will induce various immune and pro-inflammatory responses. Increased levels of cortisol affect our immune system, weight and skin. In conclusion, stress causes the overproduction of sebum and also exacerbates inflammation. It may also exacerbate the major causes of acne that has already been there in the first place. Stress breakouts are unique. They're sporadic and deep-rooted. And these kinds of breakouts can't be ‘fixed’ overnight. It needs to be dealt with internally first. Then, you can incorporate skincare treatments that will help alleviate and treat the skin issues 🌿 Have you ever noticed that you break out more when you're stressed?
