Talk about the Sunday Scaries after a weekend of eating food that you know breaks you out.
Dairy is one of those things that generally mess our skin up within 24 hours. You can see it on your chin where you’d have a goatee.
Sad but true 😩
Dairy has IGF’s (insulin-like growth factors), which means it’s loaded with messenger hormones from a giant cow that tells your hair follicle to go nuts, leading to extra oil, inflammation, and next-day acne.
Lactose-free & organic milk don’t cut it either, so just know that. Both of those variations may be healthier for you but still have the same problematic hormones.
Whey protein is the ABSOLUTE WORST for skin and can lead to insane cystic breakouts on the back & body. Super important to avoid whey protein!
Everyone has a different level of dairy tolerance, so we always suggest having it no more than once a week and sticking to goat cheese (hormones are less intense with goat cheese).
If you are the type whose skin just does NOT like dairy (*us raising our hands rn*) then sit tight because we have something dropping real soon 👀 that will help you enjoy the foods you love more often AND wake up to clearer skin! ✨
