Mandelic acid is my holy grail acne fighting ingredient, here’s why:
- Chemical exfoliation penetrates the pore & breaks down sebum, bacteria, dead skin, dirt, & everything else that leads to the proliferation of acne.
- Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, & anti-fungal properties treat all types of acne
- Water soluble, helps your skin retain moisture instead of drying it out
- Large molecular weight = safe & effective for all skin types, even sensitive
Mandelic acid (serums) need 10 minutes ALONE on the skin to work their magic before being occluded with a moisturizer, oil, etc.

Nicole started her acne journey with me in January of 2024. She had been dealing with severe, chronic, hormonal acne after coming off of birth control.
First, we scraped her skincare & started her on a full @clearstemskincare home-care routine, this allowed us to remove all pore-cloggers from her routine & get her barrier back to great shape.
We also utilized functional testing to see how the detox of birth control from her system was affecting her hormones. Functional testing is the unsung hero of acne management. I utilize it for clients like Nicole, as well as clients who are struggling with gut & digestion vulnerabilites.
I told Nicole at our first session to give herself one year on the program before she even started to get frustrated. Fast forward 10 months later & Nicole is (almost) completely acne free.
I chose the Oxygen Peel for Nicole’s skin at our most recent appointment. The Oxygen Peel offers just the right amount of acid to offer deep, cellular exfoliation. It also brightens scarring from her previous breakouts, which is now our main focus.
The combination of home-care, chemical peels, & hormonal rebalancing has allowed Nicole’s skin to be healed internally & holistically. Most importantly, Nicole’s journey has taught her how to best support herself on all levels.
Whether you’re dealing with hormonal acne, stress acne, digestion acne, or anything in between, I’m ready to help you heal. LINK IN BIO, I can’t wait to see you soon :).

Acne benders are anything that veers you off course of your acne healing or maintenance journey. They can be travel, vacation, illness, etc.
For me this bender was a long weekend where I was outside of my normal eating, sleeping, exercise, & home-care routines.
The best thing to do is just allow yourself to let the circumstance play out & enjoy yourself if that’s what the occasion calls for. I find more damage is done from stressing about the bender than the actual bender itself.
The goal is that your body & skin are at such a good health balance that when you do have those times, it doesn’t throw you off completely.
Get back into your routine when you’re able to. Life is about enjoyment, we can’t be perfect all the time.

The most consistent feedback I get from new acne clients is struggling with what to eat for breakfast.
Eggs, dairy, & wheat are all acne triggers. They’re also the staples of the standard American breakfast.
Get comfortable with eating non-breakfast foods for breakfast. Steak & veggies, chicken & rice, a souped up protein shake.
When I starting eating a big ole bowl of ground beef for breakfast I noticed longer satiation, clearer skin, & no 2pm slump.

Healing happens first with identifying what needs healing, implementing the changes to heal, & allowing the body to do that healing.
It is not an overnight or linear process!
I tell my clients that if you have been dealing with chronic, persistent, adult acne you need to give yourself one year from the moment you start your journey before you even get frustrated.
Some people clear in 3 months, some people clear in 12 months. Everyone is different.
If you’re ready to heal your acne with a lifelong approach, I’m ready to guide you.
