Your gut is home to a whole ecosystem of bacteria that support your overall health, including your skin. A healthy gut helps reduce inflammation, absorb nutrients, and maintain balance in your body—all of which are reflected in your skin. When the gut is out of balance, it can lead to skin issues like breakouts, dryness, or sensitivity. Supporting your gut through a balanced diet and supplements can make a real difference for your skin.

Your Brain: The Stress-Skin Link

When you feel stressed, your skin often shows it. Stress triggers the release of hormones like cortisol, which can lead to increased oil production, breakouts, and even a weakened skin barrier. Managing stress through activities like mindfulness, relaxation, and exercise can help keep your skin calm and healthy.

Your Skin: A Window to Your Health

Your skin can give you clues about what’s going on inside your body. If you notice more breakouts, sensitivity, or changes in texture, it could be a sign that your gut or stress levels are out of balance. By taking care of your body’s internal systems, you can help your skin look and feel its best.

Simple Steps to Support Your Gut, Brain, and Skin


  • Nourish Your Gut:  Eat a diet rich in fibre and probiotics, and consider adding skin-friendly supplements that support gut health.
  • Manage Stress:  Take time for yourself each day with simple practices like deep breathing or a walk in nature to reduce stress and support your skin.
  • Care for Your Skin:  Use products that protect and nourish your skin barrier, especially when you’re feeling stressed or your skin is reacting to internal changes.

At GLO Skin Body, we’re here to help you take care of your skin from the inside out. By understanding the connection between your gut, brain, and skin, you can create a routine that supports your whole body—and reveals your healthiest, most radiant skin.
