It took me forever to realize that I needed to heal my skin barrier before trying to âfixâ my breakouts. I was using way too many products loaded with harsh chemicals, and my skin hated it, which only caused more breakouts. Once I switched to simple products with good ingredients and focused on strengthening my skin barrier, I havenât had a serious breakout since. I used to constantly rotate products, but now that my skin is happy with these, I will not switch!
