Hard truth: Not every breakout is a "purge."
Sometimes your skin is just... reacting. And not in a good way.
⠀
If your flare-ups last longer than a few weeks, aren’t in your usual breakout zones, or came on after trying something new (👀 beef tallow), it might be time to rethink your routine.
⠀
Purging happens with active ingredients that speed up cell turnover. Not every bump is a detox.
