In the clinic, the most common question I hear is:

“Is my skin just naturally bad?”

“Is sensitivity a genetic issue?”

The truth is: most skin problems are not genetic—they are habitual.

Based on thousands of cases, more than 70% of chronic concerns—inflammation, sensitivity, dullness, congestion—come from daily habits:

• Over-cleansing

• Insufficient sun protection

• Over-layering skincare

• Sleep deprivation and stress

Skin isn’t “bad.”

Most skin is simply exhausted.

Three Forms of Skin Fatigue I See Most Often

1. Chemical Fatigue

Caused by overuse of acids, alcohol-based products, and excessive exfoliation.

This weakens the barrier and keeps the skin in a cycle of micro-inflammation.

Symptoms: stinging, dryness, breakouts, redness.

2. Environmental Fatigue

Pollution, dust, and UV cause chronic oxidative stress.

This slows down repair and leads to dullness and texture changes.

Symptoms: dull tone, roughness, unstable skin.

3. Psychological Fatigue

Stress hormones trigger oil imbalance and weaken skin tolerance.

Often overlooked, but extremely common.

Symptoms: recurring breakouts, redness, persistent sensitivity.

My Advice: Reset Your Skin Rhythm

Skin fatigue isn’t solved by more products—

it’s solved by consistency and stability.

My clinical recommendation:

“Consistency beats complexity.”

✔ Simplify

✔ Choose stable, clinically validated actives

✔ Commit to a routine for 4–6 weeks

✔ Focus on barrier-first repair

Skin thrives on rhythm, not chaos.
