The Truth About Your Skin Barrier & Why Less Is More – with Robyn McAlpine
Welcome to the first official episode of Your Glow Code and the kickoff of Season 2! Today in this episode of Your Glow Code, we dive deep into the world of corneotherapy with leading skin expert Robyn McAlpine. Robyn breaks down why protecting your skin barrier is the key to long-term skin health and how many popular skincare trends might be doing more harm than good.
She shares the science behind corneotherapy—an approach that prioritizes skin barrier preservation over aggressive treatments. From personalized skincare to the impact of stress on skin health, Robyn emphasizes the importance of a holistic, inside-out approach. She also debunks common skincare myths, explaining why treatments like dermaplaning and micellar water might not be the miracle solutions they seem.
We also explore corneotherapeutic treatments, including Chi Beauty and skin needling, designed to work with the skin’s natural processes rather than against them. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by skincare advice, this episode is a must-listen!
Key Takeaways:
✨ Corneotherapy focuses on preserving and strengthening the skin’s natural barrier.
✨ A healthy skin barrier prevents irritation, inflammation, and premature aging.
✨ Personalized skincare and thorough consultations are essential for real skin transformation.
✨ Stress significantly impacts skin health—mind, body, and skin are deeply connected.
✨ Many mainstream skincare trends, like dermaplaning and micellar water, may be harming your skin.
✨ Holistic skincare considers internal and external factors, not just topical treatments.
✨ Corneotherapeutic treatments, like Qi Beauty and skin needling, work with the skin to support long-term health.
If you're ready to rethink your skincare routine and embrace a healthier, barrier-first approach, this episode is for you!
