ANECDOTE

Kaylee's Severe Cystic Acne Journey

  • Kaylee suffered from severe cystic acne that erupted in her mid-20s, contrary to doctors' recommendations she avoided typical treatments like birth control and antibiotics.
  • Working with Danielle's clinic, she identified and eliminated 12 unique acne triggers and cleared her skin in two months without scarring.
ADVICE

Check Makeup Ingredients for Acne

  • Use Clearstem's ingredient search bar to identify pore-clogging agents in your skincare and makeup products.
  • Avoid ingredients like isopropyl myristate and ethylhexyl palmitate that are common hidden acne triggers.
ADVICE

Limit Supplements to Balance Hormones

  • Avoid over supplementation with vitamin D, zinc, B12, and biotin as they can trigger hormonal acne by increasing testosterone.
  • Stay under 150% of the recommended daily value for these supplements and consider alternatives like sulfur and silica for hair health.
