Your skin health and inner well-being are intimately linked. Taking care of your skin goes beyond surface-level treatments. 

Sarah Karaolides from Sarah Kay Skin Studios, a wellness-focused skin studio in New York City, shares her holistic approach, emphasizing the importance of diet in skin health, particularly highlighting the potential negative impact of dairy, gluten, refined sugar, and processed foods on the skin. Stress management is crucial for maintaining healthy skin, and Sarah advises clients to find ways to reduce stress, such as switching from coffee to tea. She suggests using natural kitchen items for skincare, including Greek yogurt, honey, oats, and turmeric, for various skin benefits.
