Ever Wonder Why Your Skincare Isn’t Working?

Top 5 reasons your skincare might not be working.

Let’s be real, there’s nothing more frustrating than feeling like you’re doing all the things for your skin and still not seeing results. As an esthetician who works hands-on with acne-prone, sensitive, and reactive skin, this is one of the most common concerns I hear.

Here’s the truth: healthy skin isn’t just about applying products and hoping for the best. It’s about strategy, consistency, and understanding your unique skin. So, let’s break down the top 5 reasons your skincare might not be working and how we can fix it together.

Top 5 Reasons Your Skincare Isn’t Working:

1. You’re adding products or ingredients that aren’t right for your skin.
What works for one person might cause breakouts, irritation, or sensitivity in another. Layering trendy products, strong actives, or DIY hacks without a personalized plan can set you back. Your skin deserves a curated, expert-approved routine tailored just for you. If you’re new to skincare start with the basics, think cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing, and of course SPF. Shop here.

2. You’re not following lifestyle or dietary guidance.
While I’m not a doctor or dietitian, I provide lifestyle insights and guidance that are known to support clearer skin — think minimizing triggers like excessive dairy, high-glycemic foods, or pore-clogging habits. These small shifts can make a major difference when paired with your homecare. SBC guests always have access to exclusive resources, eBooks, handouts, and more!

3. You’re inconsistent with treatments and adjustments.
Your skin changes with the seasons, hormones, stress, and more. That’s why regular check-ins (every 4-6 weeks) are key, not only for treatments but to tweak your routine. If you’re in my Acne Bootcamp, you know we’re constantly refining based on your progress. I recommend those part of my Acne Bootcamp come in every 2-3 weeks.

4. You’re not communicating with me.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here as your guide, and my guests have access to me and resources designed to support you in between visits. Updates, questions, concerns — communication is everything!

5. You’re missing out on exclusive resources.
When you’re part of my community at Skin by Cynthia, I share handouts, guides, and education that make your journey easier. Whether it’s ingredient knowledge, lifestyle tips, or a better understanding of your skin type, I’ve got you covered.
