Most people think a damaged skin barrier is caused by over-exfoliating, using harsh products, or layering too many actives.

But what if your products aren’t the real problem?

In this episode, we break down the real cause of a damaged skin barrier and why inflammation inside the body can keep your skin from healing.

If your skin feels sensitive, tight, red, reactive, or constantly irritated, and nothing seems to work, this episode will help you understand what’s actually happening beneath the surface.

I’m Salmeen, a licensed esthetician and gut–skin specialist. I connect barrier science with gut health and inflammation so you can stop guessing and start healing strategically.

In this episode, me as a licensed esthetician and gut health specialist, explained three acne hacks that work to heal acne. Try these when none of your serum is working.

But just a disclaimer: this episode is not about quick fixes or trends.

It’s about understanding acne patterns, reducing internal inflammation, and creating the conditions your skin needs to finally heal.

If skincare hasn’t worked for you, this conversation will help you understand why and what to look at next.
