Breakouts & Acne

Stress increases cortisol, which boosts oil production and clogs pores—leading to acne.

Dry & Itchy Skin

Stress affects your skin’s barrier, causing dehydration and irritation. You may notice flakiness or redness.

Rashes & Hives

Increased stress triggers inflammation and weakens immunity—causing sudden hives or flare-ups.

Premature Aging

Chronic stress leads to fine lines, dullness, and reduced collagen production, making skin look tired and aged.

Worsening Skin Conditions

Stress can flare up eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea, making skin harder to manage.
