If you\u2019ve got a troublesome skin issue that just doesn\u2019t seem to want to heal no matter what off-the-shelf product you try, then you know how frustrating, disheartening, and expensive it can be to try product after product and see no results! Or worse than seeing no result, someone else\u2019s \u2018holy-grail\u2019 balm, cream, toner, tonic, or cleanser might actually make your skin worse. It\u2019s just not doing what you expect<\/span>\u2014<\/span><\/i>and you might worry, <\/span>is my skin to blame? Is there something specifically about me that makes these products not work? Do I just have bad skin?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having trouble finding commercially-available skincare products that work for you, we have good news: <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not<\/i> you or your skin, it\u2019s your skincare products!<\/b><\/h4>\n

Just because the products you’ve tried don’t work for you, doesn’t mean that you just have \u2018bad skin\u2019 and can\u2019t do anything about it\u2014it simply means that you haven\u2019t found the right answer for your skin\u2019s needs. You shouldn\u2019t just give up hope and throw in the towel, or let that negative self-talk get to you. <\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen it before, how devastating it can be to feel like your body is to blame. It\u2019s not! If you\u2019ve got problem skin that doesn\u2019t play nicely with the products you\u2019ve been using, hope is not lost. You can still learn what to use, and what to avoid. Healing your skin is possible! <\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what one of our students shared with us, after joining our course:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is probably similar to most people\u2019s stories, but as a kid I did not have \u2018smooth as a baby\u2019s butt\u2019 skin. I had rough, reactive, scaly skin that made me really sad, and look older! I went most of my life believing that \u2018oh well, I guess my skin is just awful,\u2019 and blamed my skin. When in reality it was the products I was putting on it.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>I felt like I tried EVERYTHING out there, the best, the most expensive, even the natural ones made me react. I had a healthy organic diet, so of course it was simply my skin that was terrible.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>Once I started making my own products, I realized that I am just allergic to a lot out there which is why I even reacted to natural products on the shelf. Even if their ingredients were good, my skin may not like them. Making my own products gives me control to narrow down which ingredients my skin likes. I am forever grateful for this discovery.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

So, What\u2019s Going On? <\/span><\/h3>\n

If the products you\u2019ve been choosing aren\u2019t a good fit for your skin, then you can start to shift your perspective and look for an answer to the puzzle of <\/span>why <\/span><\/i>they aren\u2019t working. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here are what we see as the top five reasons:<\/span><\/p>\n
