#81 Is Your Skincare Routine Actually Making Your Acne WORSE? with Cheryl Woodman

Cheryl Woodman is a scientist, award winning skincare formulator, skincare expert, writer and creator of Honesty For Your Skin and The online Acne Clinic. A 1-2-1 coaching practise where she helps people ‘who’ve tried everything under the sun and feel stuck at rock bottom’ re-find healthy, happy skin they feel fantastic in, and she does this in a way which is more friend next door than bow tie wearing professor.

She strongly believes if you understand the underlying biology changes of any skin condition you can be empowered to take back control of your skin health without medication. She believes in identifying the trigger causes of a skin condition and working with your skin’s biology to promote long term healing. She’s also been featured on BBC radio, Which Travel, Top Santé magazine and The Huffington Post.
