Visiting a dermatologist in Australia helped Stephanie Philpot establish a link between anxiety and eczema. Stephanie emphasizes how mental health profoundly affects day-to-day life and overall quality of life, underscoring its importance alongside medical treatments for skin conditions.
During the summer of 2020, Stephanie searched for suitable sunscreen for her sensitive skin, contacted a brand, and asked if they had sunscreen samples. Although the companies didn't have samples, they offered a refund if she didn't like the product. While this was a common practice for many brands, it didn't sit well with Stephanie. She realized that throughout her life, she had often wasted money and time on full-sized products that didn't work for her eczema-prone skin. So, Stephanie did something about this common issue: she began to offer skincare samples to people with sensitive skin.
Through her blog and the
Eczema Sample Store, Stephanie hopes to empower others with eczema to embrace their whole selves and find products that work for them. Stephanie's entrepreneurial venture is a testament to the power of personal experiences and her desire to positively impact others facing similar challenges.
