Dear Evologie

Dear Evologie,

I may have had my doubts about you in the beginning, but I was under a lot of stress and the quality of my skin not so great. Our relationship started out a bit rocky when we first met. I didn’t give you the full chance you deserved.

So I decided to try you out again, twice a day, every day, and be diligent about it. I am glad for my decision. I have less stress in my life, and less dairy in my diet (hormones), but I still get breakouts around “that time of the month.”

As soon as I persisted with my daily routine, so did you.  I know you are working hard to keep acne from surfacing and I feel so secure in our new routine.

Thank you Evologie for making the surface of my skin glow and stay smooth! And for making the stressful hormonal breakouts less intense, and for being gentle on my sensitive skin. I am happier in life and have less variables. With you, I have been able to find my balance.

I can purse my careers freely, without added worries of my professional appearance as a healthy model. Life is less stressful, with you in my life.

Sincerely,

Briauna Mariah (:

I was working hard on my new role as a New York model and my bad skin was extremely discouraging.

The bad skin caused even more stress–my face is my career!–my agency at the timed scheduled me to see a very expensive dermatologist.  I tried more antibiotics. It was a vicious cycle of stress, hormones, trying to find a solution, and more stress. The whole process of prescriptions, samples, and doctors visits was very aggravating. Near the end of December 2012, I met a terrific,  man on a modeling job who owns a branding company and he wanted to send me some Evologie creams.
