Juicy Skin & Coils Kenya

Hormonal acne on the chin and jawline in women is often linked to excess androgens (male hormones such as testosterone). These hormones increase oil (sebum) production in the skin, making pores more likely to clog and develop acne, especially around the lower face.

Excess androgens can also stimulate facial hair growth (hirsutism), especially on the chin, jaw, upper lip, and neck.

Common causes of elevated androgens in women include:

* Polycystic O***y Syndrome
* Insulin resistance
* Stress and high cortisol levels
* Certain medications
* Hormonal fluctuations during puberty, pregnancy, or perimenopause
* Genetics/family history

When acne and facial hair happen together, it can sometimes be a sign of an underlying hormonal imbalance rather than just a skincare issue.

𝐀𝐂𝐍𝐄 𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐄

Many people accidentally make their acne WORSE while desperately trying to get rid of it.

This usually happens because they become impatient and start attacking the skin too aggressively instead of focusing on healing and balance.

Here are some of the biggest mistakes people make when trying to treat acne:

𝟏. 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑-𝐄𝐗𝐅𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐍

This is one of the most common mistakes.

People start using:
-Scrubs everyday
-Strong acids everyday
-Multiple acne products at once
-Harsh soaps several times a day

They think:
“The more aggressive I am, the faster the acne will disappear.”

Unfortunately this often damages the skin barrier.

Once the skin barrier becomes damaged the skin becomes:
❌ More inflamed
❌ More irritated
❌ More oily
❌ More sensitive
❌ More acne prone

In some cases the acne actually becomes WORSE than before.

Acne prone skin needs patience and balance, not punishment.

𝟐. 𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐎𝐎 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐘 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐒 𝐀𝐓 𝐎𝐍𝐂𝐄

Some people start with everything
-Acne serum
-Salicylic acid
-Retinol
-Benzoyl peroxide
-Toner
-Scrub
-Clay mask

ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

Then when the skin reacts they don’t even know which product caused the problem.

Introducing too many actives together overwhelms the skin.

This is why we always encourage people to start slow and build gradually.

𝟑. 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐋𝐓𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐀 𝐅𝐄𝐖 𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒

Acne treatment takes time.

Many people quit products after:
❌ 4 days
❌ 1 week
❌ 2 weeks
❌ 1 month
❌2 months
❌3 months

because they expected instant results.

Skin cells take time to renew themselves. One skin cell renewal cycle is 28-40 days long for most people. You need multiple skin cycles to get rid of issues happening beneath your skin surface.

Inflammation also takes time to calm down.

Most skincare products need several weeks of CONSISTENT use before significant improvement is seen.

Skincare is not magic.
Consistency matters more than speed.

𝟒. 𝐃𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒 𝐎𝐑 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐈𝐃 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒

Some people use bleaching creams or steroid creams because they quickly flatten pimples or lighten acne marks.

However over time many of these products:
-Thin the skin
-Damage the skin barrier
-Cause rebound acne
-Trigger sensitivity
-Increase inflammation
-Cause dependency where the skin worsens after stopping

In many cases the acne comes back even worse.

Never sacrifice long term skin health for temporary fast results.

If unsure whether that cream you are using has steroids or bleaching agents google the product. And if that product has no label with listed ingredients you should be very wary of it.

𝟓. 𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆, 𝐒𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐄𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐆 & 𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐒

I understand. It is very tempting and oddly satisfying.

But constantly touching and squeezing acne:
❌ Increases inflammation
❌ Pushes bacteria deeper
❌ Delays healing
❌ Causes dark spots
❌ Increases risk of scarring

Some acne scars last for YEARS.

𝟔. 𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐍

Many people with acne avoid sunscreen because they think:
“Sunscreen causes breakouts.”

But unprotected sun exposure can worsen post acne marks, hyperpigmentation, inflammation and skin sensitivity.

The key is choosing the RIGHT sunscreen for your skin type.

𝟕. 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐒 𝐓𝐎𝐎 𝐎𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐍

Some people never give products enough time to work.

Every week they buy a new serum, a new cleanser, a new cream, a new exfoliant etc

The skin never gets a chance to stabilize.

Sometimes the constant switching itself becomes the problem.

𝟖. 𝐂𝐎𝐏𝐘𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐄𝐋𝐒𝐄’𝐒 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐄

What works for one person may not work for another.

Some people have:
-Hormonal acne
-Fungal acne
-Barrier damage
-Very oily skin
-Extremely sensitive skin
-Acne triggered by steroids/bleaching products
-Acne triggered by heavy oils or pore clogging products

This is why skincare should be personalized.

𝟗. 𝐅𝐎𝐂𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐒𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐒

Sometimes acne is linked to:
-Hormonal imbalance
-Stress
-Poor sleep
-Insulin resistance
-High sugar diets
-PCOS
-Certain medications

Skincare helps a lot, but sometimes internal factors also need to be addressed. A lot of people tend to ignore advice on sorting out the internal issues yet they are the root cause. If you never deal with the root cause then the problem will never end.

𝟏𝟎. 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐒 𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐁𝐄𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐑

Many beginners jump straight into:
-Strong acids
-High percentage retinols
-Daily exfoliation

Then their skin becomes:
❌ Red
❌ Painful
❌ Burning
❌ Peeling
❌ Extremely reactive

Strong products are not always better.

Sometimes a simple gentle routine works better than an aggressive one.

In skincare, patience usually wins.

Healthy skin is built slowly.

Not overnight.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐈𝐆𝐆𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐘𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐏𝐈𝐆𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍

Many people accidentally make their hyperpigmentation WORSE while trying to get rid of it.

This is because they focus only on “quick results” instead of long term skin health.

Here are some of the biggest mistakes people make:

𝟏. 𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒 𝐎𝐑 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐈𝐃 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒

Yes, these products often work FAST.

However, many of them damage the skin over time.

They tend to
-Thin the skin
-Damage the skin barrier
-Trigger rebound pigmentation
-Cause veins/stretchmarks to become more visible
-Make the skin highly sensitive and reactive
-Increase inflammation
-Cause dependency where the skin worsens when you stop using them

In many cases the rebound pigmentation becomes even darker and harder to treat than the original hyperpigmentation. Sometimes even permanent.

Never sacrifice long term skin health for temporary fast results.

𝟐. 𝐉𝐔𝐌𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐎 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐏𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐒

I understand that hyperpigmentation can seriously affect self esteem and confidence.

But skincare is NOT a race.

Many people rush straight into:
-Strong acids
-High percentage exfoliants
-Multiple brightening serums at once
-Harsh peels
-Advanced active ingredients

before their skin is ready.

This often causes irritation and inflammation.

And when skin becomes irritated, it may produce MORE melanin as a defense mechanism, especially in darker skin tones.

Meaning:
The rushing actually prolongs the journey to even skin tone.

In skincare, moving too aggressively can make progress slower instead of faster.

𝟑. 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐄𝐗𝐅𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐍

Some people use:
-Scrubs everyday
-Multiple exfoliating products together
-Harsh brushes
-Strong exfoliants too frequently

thinking it will “remove darkness faster.”

Unfortunately over exfoliation damages the skin barrier and creates inflammation.

This can lead to:
-Increased sensitivity
-Burning/stinging
-Dryness
-Breakouts
-More hyperpigmentation

Healthy skin heals and brightens better than damaged skin. Protect your skins protective barrier at all cost.

𝟒. 𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐍

This is one of the BIGGEST reasons hyperpigmentation keeps returning.

You cannot aggressively treat pigmentation while exposing the skin daily to UV damage without protection.

Even if you are indoors most of the day or the weather is cloudy, UV exposure still happens.

Without sunscreen:
-Dark spots may keep returning
-Existing pigmentation may deepen
-Progress becomes much slower

𝟓. 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐋𝐓𝐒

One of the biggest mistakes is impatience.

Hyperpigmentation usually develops over months or years.

It rarely disappears in a few days.

Real skincare requires:
-Consistency
-Patience
-Barrier protection
-Gradual progression

Sometimes skin may even look temporarily worse before it starts improving, especially when correcting previous damage. Here is where a lot of people give up and jump product to product not knowing that all they are doing is prolonging their journey.

𝟔. 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐒𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐒

Many people never give products enough time to work.

Every week they are trying a new cream, a new serum, a new "miracle product", a new tik tok recommendation etc

This confuses and stresses the skin.

Consistency is extremely important when treating hyperpigmentation.

𝟕. 𝐂𝐎𝐏𝐘𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄’𝐒 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒

Not every skin can tolerate the same products.

What works for one person may irritate another person.

This is especially true if your skin barrier is already damaged or sensitive.

Skincare should be tailored to your skin's sensitivity, your skin type, skin history, barrier health and tolerance level. Not to someone else's.

𝟖. 𝐍𝐄𝐆𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐑 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐑

Many people focus ONLY on “brightening.”

But damaged skin struggles to heal properly.

Sometimes the first step is not aggressive treatment.

Sometimes the first step is:
-calming the skin
-repairing the barrier
-reducing inflammation
-restoring hydration

That's why sometimes we recommend starting with the Beginner Skincare set for very sensitive skin before we move to targeted hyperpigmentation products.

And yes here you may not see much external change but your skin is healing and your skin's protective barrier is being repaired.

Once the skin becomes healthier and less reactive, it usually tolerates brightening products much better and you can see good results faster than when you try to use those brightening products on damaged skin.

The goal is not just lighter spots.

The goal is HEALTHIER, STRONGER, MORE EVEN skin long term.

Healthy skin responds better to skincare.
