How does perioral dermatitis differ from other skin conditions like acne, and why is it important to make a proper distinction?
So, let's dig into the world of skin health, with a focus on perioral dermatitis (PD), a skin condition characterized by red, inflammatory eruptions around the mouth. We break down the importance of tackling internal health issues like gut health, stress, and diet, emphasizing that vibrant skin comes from within. As we chat about our own experiences and share knowledge from the Clear Skin Solutions program, you will learn about the interconnectedness of the gut, brain, and skin, and how addressing stress and nutritional imbalances can lead to clearer, healthier skin.
The conversation also covers vital skincare tips for managing PD, highlighting ingredients to avoid, like irritants, fragrances, and harsh chemicals, and those that can soothe inflamed skin, such as hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and ceramides. We advocate for a simple, nurturing skincare routine paired with a nutritious diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods and omega-3s.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Perioral Dermatitis (PD) and Its Causes
- Dietary Triggers and Hygiene Factors Influencing PD
- Gut Health and Its Connection to PD
- Stress Management and Mental Health in Relation to PD
- Skincare Practices and Recommendations for PD
- The Psychological Impact of Skin Conditions
Join us on the next episode where we'll peel back the layers of the toxic components hiding in skincare products. Learn how to identify harmful ingredients and protect your skin and overall health.
