Your skincare guide to healing adult acne and an inflamed skin barrier in a simple and sustainable way, for a lifetime of healthy, clear, and glowing skin!
Eating all the right foods and living a “healthy” lifestyle yet still dealing with persistent acne? I can guarantee you that something in your skincare routine isn't working, EVEN if you are using truly amazing products!
To heal your acne LONG term – we need to *carefully* come up with a skincare routine that supports what I call THE HEALTHY TRIO: a resilient skin barrier, optimal skin pH (acid mantle), and a BALANCED skin microbiome. If your skin is “all over the place” – irritated, inflamed, sensitive and your skincare isn’t addressing those issues – you’re probably not making ANY *REAL* progress.
Just because an ingredient or product is “natural” or “clean” – it can STILL irritate your skin and clog your pores. And yes, “natural” skincare like essential oils or tallow are actually NOT tolerated well at all by SO many people (especially acne sufferers). In fact, MOST “natural” ingredients are actually pore clogging and/or very irritating (👀coconut oil). Very few “natural” skincare products actually work and I can teach you all about them!
S-T-R-O-N-G skincare ingredients like exfoliating acids, retinoids and vitamin C can be VERY helpful, but ONLY if YOUR skin is ready for them! If your skin barrier is still very sensitive and inflamed – those “miracle” products WON'T work on your skin and will just irritate it even more which will cause MORE breakouts (even if you’re eating “healthy”, getting your sleep, and all that jazz)
You NEED TO have a skincare routine that supports healthy skin AND helps you SOLVE your skin issues once and for all! Even if your skincare is “super simple” – those “simple” ingredients can still irritate your skin barrier and slow down your healing journey. AND, your skin may need an additional product that *strategically* targets YOUR acne type which results in CLEAR SKIN without damaging your skin barrier!
Me before & after acne & oily skin
This is the only “Before” picture I have at the moment, and it was taken right before my skin was nearly acne-free. I still had a TON of congestion and skin-colored bumps ALL over my forehead and chin. The “After” picture was after just ONE year of using the RIGHT skincare!
Yes, it took me a full year to fully HEAL my skincare barrier as it was so inflamed and irritated – I could BARELY tolerate ANY skincare.
I had tried everything under the sun except Accutane, including:
➡️ Dermatologists and their prescription creams and medications
➡️Antibiotics (several rounds)
➡️Hormonal birth control pills
➡️Over-the-counter acne treatments (you name it, I tried it)
➡️Professional treatments (peels, extractions, etc.)
…and much, much more.
Finally, I decided to take matters into my own hands, and use my background in molecular biology (in which I hold a Masters's Degree) to learn as much as I could about skin.
I turned to peer reviewed research and trusted dermatology sites and what I had learned allowed me to finally understand how the skin really works.
Once I started applying what I’ve learned, my skin started to heal, and within a year, it was COMPLETELY clear.
Today, I actually enjoy my own skin, something I NEVER thought would be possible! At the age of 36, my skin actually looks better (and younger) than it did in my early 20s!
EXACT skincare routines + products you NEED that heal stubborn adult acne and promote clear, glowing skin.
Take a moment to evaluate your current skincare routine and get an overview of how to proceed through the course based on your skin condition and acne type.
This is a very important phase of your skin journey during which you will eliminate all irritating and acne-aggravating products and practices, and have a routine targeted at your specific acne type.
During this phase, your skin barrier will be healthy and most of the acne might even be gone. You are ready for some skincare routine upgrades and adjustments.
Your skin is now healthy enough to tolerate a much wider range of good products! Yay!
In this section of the course, you will find my FULL product recommendations, safe DIYs to try out, and more!

I am a former scientist with a Master's Degree in Molecular Biology and a certified Primal Health Coach. After battling persistent acne myself for over a decade, I am dedicated to helping people worldwide achieve clear, healthy and glowing skin. I have worked and mentored thousands of people in the past 8+ years, collecting valuable insights into how skin and adult acne work, and I am now sharing it all with you!
You have probably wondered what is actually causing your acne? Is it diet, supplements, skincare, hormonal imabalances…?! Well, I have good news for you! I can PERSONALLY evaluate your situation and explain ALLL about your UNIQUE acne triggers!
The course starts as soon as you enroll and never ends! It is an entirely self-paced online course – you decide when you start and when you finish.
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like – across any and all devices you own, plus all the future updates!
Absolutely not! “Purging” or skin getting worse before it gets better is just a sign that you have raised inflammation in your skin barrier too much. This can even set you back in your clear skin journey as it can lock you into a vicious cycle of acne! My students see steady, gradual progress from the start.
Absolutely not! Usually my students actually have simpler and cheaper skincare routines than they did before. People actually often keep at least some of the skincare products they already own, just use them in a better way.
If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact me at [email protected] in the first 30 days, explain how you followed the guide and I will give you a FULL refund.
No, the course is not limited to the natural ingredients only, there are also more conventional products that are safe to use. However, if you choose to, you can create a 100% natural skincare routine according to the instructions in the course as I provide wonderful DIY recipes and exact instructions on how to use them. If you need an oil-free skincare routine, I also give exact instructions on how to do that and which skincare ingredients and products to use, and how.
NO! Oils don't work for a lot of people, and the course takes that into account and doesn't push the oils. You will get detailed instructions on how to introduce oils if you want to, but you can completely avoid them and create an amazing routine without them. You will get all the info you need to do just that inside the course!
I try my best to! All of the recommended products are from reputable brands, most of which have completely non-toxic formulations. However, it is ultimately up to you to decide what you are comfortable with (mainstream products vs 100% natural ones), and I will have options for you either way!
My favorite question! This course is SO much more than just recommending a cookie-cutter routine for everybody. You will learn to interpret what your skin responds well to and ADJUST your routine accordingly. Not just that, the TIMING of use of different products is very important. You will go through 3 phases: ELIMINATE, BALANCE, and ENRICH, which is super important for the best results. You could, for example, reap great benefits from a product if used when your skin is ready (in the right phase), but it may only aggravate your acne if your skin barrier is still unhappy!
Some of it you can surely find online, but those are just fragmented pieces that are very difficult to put together in the best way for someone who hasn't had as much experience working with people as I have. I have spent the last 15+ years researching so much about the skin, healing my own acne after a decade-long battle, and working with hundreds of women for the past 8+ years, learning first hand what works and what doesn't. In short, you will get a detailed, step-by-step guide to making the best skincare routine for YOU that will save you both time and money! Honestly, I haven't encountered anything like this online course on the internet, so if you did, send it my way!:)
About 20% of it you can find in some form on my blog (yes, even if you read everything on my website, 80% of the course will still be new to you!). Most of it will relate to the importance of healthy skin, and parts that I teach in the BALANCE phase. Chances are that you are in the BALANCE phase already if you have been following my tips from Healthy Skin Glows. However, the majority of the information in the course is completely NEW information, even to those of you who have been following me for a long time, simply because it took me years to be confident in my knowledge and put it all together! If you are currently in the BALANCE phase, ENRICH phase will really take your skincare to a new level!
YES! You can definitely take the course, and actually, benefit from it a lot! It is desirable that you support the health of your skin from the inside too (healthy diet, sleep, exercising, etc), but having a good skincare routine can help you no matter what.
This is very individual, and it will vary from a few weeks to several months or even more. It depends on whether you are also addressing your acne causes (with diet, supplements, etc) at the same time as improving your skincare routine. If you are unsure what to eat for clear skin and what causes your acne, try eating only foods from my grocery list BONUS pdf (you'll find it within the course, in the EXTRAS section) for at least a few months. You can also choose the option to work with me, so I can pinpoint your acne causes and help you eliminate them (as painlessly as possible, I promise!).
NO! It is important to follow a healthy diet to have healthy and clear skin, but if you are already doing that, a good skincare routine, as explained in the Skin Rebalancing Protocol, can help you see significant improvements in your skin! You can also check out my Simple Skin Healing Recipes mini online course that contains not only easy and yummy recipes for clear skin, but also my dietary guidelines overview (which food triggers you may want to explore).
The course includes only skincare instructions (in a lot of detail that you need to get the best results!), and you must go through the course materials yourself. No worries, with the newest updates to the course, this is super easy! It will help you determine your acne type and how to proceed based on that and your current routine (or lack thereof). Should you need more personalized help, you can easily upgrade your package at any time (the price you paid for the course will be deduced), and I will create a personalized routine for you! The personalized plan is more elaborate and I will work with you on your diet, skincare, and natural supplements. This gives you a much more holistic approach to healing your skin and you can check it out HERE.
In the skin evaluation option, I will share with your what your most likely acne triggers are, and tips on how to resolve them (or simply reassure you that certain things you were stressing about, like your diet, aren't actually a problem). In my personalized plan, I provide CUSTOM skincare routine, we work holistically to resolve all the acne triggers (so this goes much more in depth!), plus you chat with me 2 times, have 3 months of email support and my other resources (Simple Skin Healing Recipes online course). Basically, choosing the evaluation option can give you a taste of what it would be like to work with me (while providing you with precious tips and insight!), and you can always upgrade to the personalized plan at any point later by just paying the difference in the packages:)
