Summer skin damage hits differently and according to celebrity facialist The LA Facialist, aka Candace Marino, many people are accidentally making it worse. In this episode of The Beauty Authority, NewBeauty’s Director of Aesthetic Content Tatiana Bido sits down with Marino for a candid conversation about melasma, sunscreen confusion, overdoing active ingredients and why “healthy glowing skin” doesn’t always mean your barrier is actually healthy.
Marino also shares the treatment that triggered her own melasma, the summer skin habits she wishes people would stop doing immediately and the barrier-first skin care philosophy she’s bringing back from Korea. If your skin feels reactive, inflamed, flaky or suddenly darker this time of year, this episode explains why.
