⚡ Stress Can Physically Alter Your Skin Barrier
Chronic stress doesn’t just “make skin worse”—it actually weakens the skin barrier at a biological level.
High cortisol levels can:
- Reduce your skin’s ability to retain moisture
- Slow healing
- Increase sensitivity and irritation
👉 That’s why conditions like eczema, hives, and even acne often worsen during stressful periods.
