Elle Black is on a mission to connect the dots between your hormones, your skin, and your daily life. As the Founder of SAME, a hormone-friendly skincare brand and predictive skin health app, Elle is using her personal experience with Stage 4 endometriosis and her background in product design to build a whole new category of cycle-aware skincare.

In this episode of That’s Derm Good!, Elle joins Janelle to break down why so many people feel frustrated by breakouts, unpredictable skin, and the endless promises of the beauty industry. She shares how SAME combines biometric data (from wearables like Oura and Apple Health) with cycle tracking to help users see patterns and predict breakouts before they happen.

Elle explains how understanding factors like heart rate variability, sleep, stress, and lifestyle triggers can reveal what your skin is trying to say about your hormones. By pairing this data with practical, hormone-friendly skincare products, free of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, SAME aims to empower users to prevent problems instead of reacting to them.

Elle Black also talks about the big picture: creating a supportive community where people don’t feel alone navigating conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, or perimenopause. With personalized insights, protocols, and a feedback loop built into the app, SAME is setting the stage for a new era of predictive, proactive skin health.
