Eczema doesn’t just flare from allergens or products…
Your stress levels play a MAJOR role.
When you’re stressed, your body releases cortisol. And when cortisol stays high for too long, it weakens your skin barrier, increases inflammation, and makes eczema flare-ups more frequent, more itchy, and harder to treat.
Managing stress can improve your skin more than you think.
Simple things like quality sleep, deep breathing, regular exercise, hydration, and a consistent skincare barrier routine can calm both your mind and your skin.
