78. Fungal Acne 101: What It Is, Common Misconceptions, And The Pacific Touch Routine That Can Actually Treat It

Happy Tuesday, STT Fam! This week, Nichola and I are getting into fungal acne. And I mean really getting into it. Because I cannot tell you how many times we see clients who have been treating the wrong thing for months (sometimes years) without knowing it. We cover: ✨ What fungal acne actually is (and why calling it "acne" is a bit misleading) ✨ How to tell if what you're dealing with is fungal vs. regular acne (the visual clues are more obvious than you'd think) ✨ How antibiotics can actually trigger a fungal flare (yes, even the ones prescribed for your acne) ✨ The everyday skincare ingredients feeding the yeast without you knowing… including cleansing oils ✨ The PT routine for treating fungal acne at home, step by step✨ When to stop treating it yourself and see a dermatologist ✨ Why summer is prime fungal acne season and Nichola's top tips for keeping it at bay ✨ And whether it can come back, plus how to manage it long term Nichola breaks it all down the way only she can.
