We see this every day in the clinic: people buying the exact products their friend uses because “it worked for her,” or filling their basket with products recommended by influencers.
The problem? Your skin is unique.
Not only does everyone have different skin types and concerns, but our skin also ages differently. Factors like genetics, lifestyle, sun exposure, hormones, and overall health all play a role in how our skin changes over time.
What works for someone else might not work for you at all - and sometimes it can even cause irritation, breakouts, or a compromised skin barrier.
In fact, many of our clients come to us with sensitivity, irritation, and damaged skin barriers after following generic skincare advice online.
Effective skincare isn’t about copying someone else’s routine. It’s about understanding your skin, its current condition, and what it needs at each stage of life. That’s why skincare should always be personal, not copied.
