Plant Lens | Spearmint + Hormonal Acne

Spearmint tea has been studied for its anti-androgenic effects in women, including reductions in free testosterone in small clinical studies. Because androgens can influence sebum production and adult female acne, spearmint is one botanical that often comes up in hormonal-skin conversations.

Why is my skin still reacting when I’m doing everything right?

You’ve simplified your skincare. You’re using gentle products. You’re avoiding known triggers. Yet your skin is still red, sensitive, flushed, or unpredictable.
Sometimes, the answer isn’t another skincare product.

Skin reactivity can be influenced by more than what we apply topically. Stress, disrupted sleep, hormonal changes, digestive health, and an impaired skin barrier can all contribute to how our skin responds and recovers.

At Hälsa Fusion, we look beyond the surface.

Through The Hälsa Method, we explore the patterns that may be contributing to ongoing skin sensitivity, while supporting the skin barrier, nervous system, and overall recovery.

When Skin & Mind Meet | The Hälsa Journal

Last night, I attended a workshop on psychodermatology — a field of healthcare that explores the relationship between our skin, nervous system, and emotional wellbeing.

Something the presenter said really stayed with me. He spoke about grieving the body you thought you would have, rather than the one you’re living in.
And I thought, what a powerful way to describe something we don’t often talk about when it comes to chronic skin conditions.

Because eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and acne can affect so much more than the skin itself.
The interrupted sleep. The clothes you avoid wearing. The social plans you cancel. The frustration of unpredictable flare-ups. The emotional exhaustion of trying to find something that works.

And there’s research behind this connection.

Psychodermatology recognizes that our skin can influence our emotional wellbeing, just as stress and our nervous system can influence how our skin functions.

This is something I explore at Hälsa Fusion through a complementary, whole-body approach — incorporating gentle therapeutic touch, nervous-system support, skin barrier care, nutrition, and the internal patterns that may be contributing to skin concerns.

I’ve explored this further in my latest Hälsa Journal, including the research behind psychodermatology and how it connects with the work I do at Hälsa.

THE PLANT LENS | Calendula officinalis 🌼

A flower with a long history of healing.

Calendula gets its name from the Latin calendae, meaning the first day of the month, a nod to its remarkable ability to bloom repeatedly throughout the growing season.

Calendula has been valued in herbal medicine for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and skin-supportive properties.

Rich in flavonoids, triterpenoids, and carotenoids, calendula contains plant compounds that contribute to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.

🌿 Topically: Traditionally used in oils, salves, and botanical compresses to soothe irritated skin and support the healing of minor wounds.
🌿 Internally: Prepared as an herbal infusion for digestive comfort, particularly to soothe irritated mucous membranes.

What I love about calendula is its simplicity. It’s a reminder that supporting the skin doesn’t always mean stimulating it. Sometimes, the most valuable approach is to soothe, protect, and allow the skin to restore itself.

The Plant Lens is where we explore the traditional wisdom and modern science behind the botanicals used in holistic skin care.

You can be using good skincare—and still be doing too much for your skin.

When acids, retinoids, scrubs, vitamin C and corrective serums are layered together, the combined stimulation can become more than your skin barrier can comfortably manage.

This may look like:

• Products suddenly stinging
• Redness that lasts longer
• Tightness, heat or itching
• Dryness and breakouts occurring together
• Skin becoming increasingly unpredictable

The answer isn’t always a stronger treatment or another product.
Reactive skin often needs the sources of irritation identified, unnecessary stimulation reduced and enough time and support to rebuild.

At Hälsa Fusion, we look at your complete pattern—including product overlap, exfoliation, barrier function, hormonal changes, stress, sleep and treatment tolerance.

Stop guessing. Start with assessment.

HÄLSA LENS 🌿

Whole-body skin care can include the small moments you make for yourself.

Choosing a blend. Letting it steep. Taking a few minutes to sit and enjoy it.

At Hälsa Fusion, botanicals are part of both my treatment room and my tea-making practice. How a plant is prepared matters—a topical infusion, an extract and a drinking tea each have different uses.

Custom teas are available, thoughtfully blended around your flavour preferences, daily routine and ingredient suitability.

If you’d love a blend of your own, send me a message or ask at your next appointment. 🤍

Cleavers 🌿

A humble little plant for lymphatic support.

At Hälsa, I’m especially I use cleavers for its ability for fluid movement, puffiness and gentle lymphatic care.

One of my favourite ways to work with it is externally: preparing a cleavers infusion and incorporating it into skin and lymphatic rituals alongside gentle facial massage and manual lymphatic drainage.

🌿 Traditionally used internally as a lymphatic herb
🌿 Can be prepared as a tea or topical infusion
🌿 Pairs beautifully with gentle lymphatic practices

Have we started doing too much to our skin?
More actives. More exfoliation. More layering. Stronger treatments. More pressure to correct every pore, line and bit of texture.

But skin is an organ—not a surface that needs to be constantly perfected.
It already renews, sheds and works every day to protect us.

Sometimes the question isn’t what else can I add? It’s what can I take away?

Less stimulation. More barrier support. More recovery. And a little more respect for what healthy, normal skin actually looks like.

Your skincare hasn’t changed—but suddenly your skin has.

Products you’ve used for years may start to sting. Your skin might feel drier, flush more easily, break out differently, or simply take longer to settle.

During our 40s, changing hormonal patterns can influence hydration, barrier function, collagen and how resilient our skin feels. Add stress, disrupted sleep and everyday demands, and skin that once felt predictable may begin behaving very differently.

It doesn’t necessarily mean you need stronger skincare. Sometimes it means your skin needs a different kind of support.

In the latest Hälsa Journal, I’m exploring why skin can suddenly become more sensitive in your 40s—and what may be happening beneath the surface.

🌿 The Plant Lens | Rosemary

Rosemary is so much more than a culinary herb.

From a skin perspective, I highlight its antimicrobial properties and its relationship with circulation.

Rosemary has shown antibacterial and antifungal activity, as well as activity against Demodex mites — which becomes particularly helpful when we look at acne-prone and rosacea-prone skin.

I also think of rosemary through a vascular lens: a stimulating, moving plant with an beneficial relationship to circulation, inflammation and the appearance of redness.
