Your skin, specifically
Most skincare advice is written for everyone, which is another way of saying it is not really written for anyone. The same ingredient can be exactly right for one person and a waste of money for the next. These questions get me much closer to knowing which products match your personal skin goals.
Tell me about your skin, what you have already tried, and what is actually bothering you. I will send you an email with a link to recommendations chosen just for you.
Those recommendations include affiliate links, which means I may earn a commission if you buy through them. It costs you nothing extra, and it never changes what I recommend.
This is not medical advice. Everything I send you is general skincare education, and completing this form does not make you my patient and does not create a doctor–patient relationship between us. I am not evaluating, diagnosing, or treating you, I am not able to follow up on your skin over time, and nothing I send should be used in place of care from a clinician who can actually examine you.
Please see someone in person for anything medical. If you have a rash, a changing mole, a wound that is not healing, cystic or scarring acne, or anything that worries you, book an appointment with a board-certified dermatologist rather than filling this out. If you think you are having a medical emergency or a severe allergic reaction, call 911 or go to an emergency room.
Do not send medical information. This form is not a patient portal, it is not HIPAA-protected, and what you submit does not become part of a medical record. Please leave out diagnoses, medication lists, test results, and photographs. Your responses are collected through a third-party form provider and handled as described in my privacy policy.
Results vary, and so do skins. I am recommending products based only on what you tell me, so I cannot promise a particular outcome, and no product mentioned is claimed to prevent, treat, or cure any condition. Patch test anything new, introduce actives one at a time, and read the label. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking oral acne medication, or under the care of a dermatologist already, check with your own clinician before starting anything I suggest. Please do not fill this out for anyone under 18.
Affiliate links. Recommendations I send are chosen the same way the edits on this site are chosen: because I use them, or I recommend them in clinic. Some links are affiliate links, which means I may earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Commissions never decide what I recommend, and gifted or sponsored products are labeled wherever they appear. Full disclosures
