Top 10 Causes of Unhealthy Skin

Stress can have noticeable effects on skin. Stress escalates oil production, resulting in skin breakouts such as acne. According to sciencedaily.com, a 2001 study in the medical journal Archives of Dermatology “found that stress has a negative effect on the barrier function of the skin, resulting in water loss that inhibits the skin’s ability to repair itself after an injury.” Stress-related skin breakouts can be reduced through stress management exercises such as deep breathing, keeping a positive mindset and expressing your worries with someone.
