Welcome to another episode of The Adult Acne Podcast, where we dive deep into topics that matter to you. Today, we're tackling a subject that's been widely debated both online and offline: acne. Is it a natural skin imperfection or an unacceptable flaw? This question has been brought to the forefront by numerous social media influencers who assert that acne is normal, beautiful, and not indicative of poor health.
In this episode, inspired by these influencers, I will explore and critique their claims. While their messages often come with the best of intentions, aiming to foster self-acceptance and confidence, I believe they might be doing more harm than good. Join me as I delve into why acne exists, what causes it, and why the conversation surrounding it needs a more nuanced approach.
Whether you're someone who deals with acne or you're just curious about the discussions surrounding it, this episode aims to provide a balanced perspective on this often misunderstood condition. So, let's get started!

Welcome to another edition of the Adult Acne Podcast. In this episode, I thought I would share with you my favourite 3 acne self-help books to help you overcome your acne.
As someone who suffered with severe acne for 18-years, I only wished there would have been such resources around to help me overcome my acne. These books are great, especially if you are on a budget and aren't able to afford to work with someone like myself.
So, the 3 books I am going to discuss today are:
Unmasking Acne, by Sam Wood
The Hormonal Acne Solution, by Dr Terry Long and finally
Eliminating Adult Acne for Good, by Leigh Brandon.
