Over the past few years, towards the end of my 20s were the years that I was thriving in my career with many late nights - both working and socializing. Little did I know (or care) that this kind of lifestyle would take its toll on my health & my skin later in my 30s, until it did.

So just like anyone with acne problems, I sprinted to the most famous dermatologists in town, monthly, bi-weekly, or as often as I was told to. I was going through this journey for years and just wishing & hoping that my skin would be clear like it once was, so I could go about my days without having to feel self-conscious very so often. 

But the results were somewhat the opposite of what I’d expected, yes the acne were gone, but only temporary and my health started deteriorating. I became sick more often and yet my acne cycle still persisted.

I was stuck. And really wondered why…

I started doing some serious research, and realized that the solutions I was using weren’t the best or most sustainable for my health & body: topical treatment (was only fixing from the outside), antibiotics (soo bad for your body since it also kill your good bacteria - vital for your health & immune system).

So, I dig deeper, and turned my attention internally to find a more sustainable solution. And with countless of consultations from experts like dermatologists (to understand the cause of acne, not the solution), nutritionists, people with acne problems themselves and vast body of research on naturopathy.

I realized, that duh! We have to fix it from within, from internally in our body system and in our case, in the gut!

So, there is it, the story of how we begin another year-long research, experiments, trials and errors of how we came up with Skin Architect (SKARCH). The brand that we are so proud of that stands for sustainable solution designed to make everyone have happy gut, happy skin & healthy you in long-term :D
