What’s on this episode? We’re glad you asked…

Acne, Pimples, Blackheads and Everything In Between

Let's be clear: Breakouts, acne, blackheads and enlarged pores are 'normal' and having them doesn't define your worth. But if you're interested in learning about what actually causes blemishes and the skincare ingredients you can use to manage them, this episode is for you.

Plus, Michelle has some fun busting A LOT of pimple myths, including whether junk food, chocolate or being 'dirty' causes them. And as always, we give our favourite product recommendations.
