Deep Dive: The Role Your Barrier Plays In Skin Health

There are so many things that can impact our skin barrier! Dr. Michelle Wong gives us a quick refresher of what the skin barrier actually is, how inflammation links up to the skin barrier and what we can do to repair a broken skin barrier.

Q: I always seem to have an impaired barrier while my friends can get away with using strong acids with no problems. Is everyone’s barrier tolerance different?

Everyone's tolerance is different and you need to do what's right for your skin! Dr. Michelle explains why this is a thing and Amy tells us what happened to her skin when she pushed her skin to far!
