#046 After seeing thousands of patients in clinic, it became clear that more often than not, the issues I was seeing were related to using TOO MANY products rather than not enough.. Pair this with the current social media climate of 10 step ASMR routines and it's easy to see why so many of us end up with damaged skin barriers and worsening skin concerns when we are seemingly doing "everything right".
On Today's episode I'm breaking down how to simplify your skincare routine to get the best skin of your life!
