What is the Allergy-Acne Connection?  If you have environmental allergies or even food sensitivities, they could provide clues to your persistent breakouts.  Sensitivity in one area can contribute to sensitivity in another area. As part of my online skincare coaching service, Eval by Email ® Online Skincare Consultation, vital information about your skin’s history is gathered along with full names of all the products you use from head to toe.   One section that may surprise you is dedicated to listing your allergies -- anything related to food, environment, cosmetics and even medication.   Why do I need such details about everything  topical or ingested?   Is there a connection between allergies and acne breakouts?
