My Journey

My Skin Healing Journey

For years, I struggled with deep, painful cystic acne. I tried everything: dermatology prescriptions, multiple rounds of antibiotics, harsh topicals, and even considered Accutane. But no matter what I used, my skin wouldn’t clear—and worse, my confidence began to crumble.

I felt hopeless. I didn’t want to live with acne anymore, but I also didn’t want to take something like Accutane—a powerful synthetic form of vitamin A known for its intense side effects. Instead of masking symptoms, I became determined to get to the root.

That’s when I began healing holistically. I focused on three foundational changes that transformed my skin—and my life.

The Big 3 That Changed Everything

1. Whole-Food Vitamin A (Beef Liver)

Accutane is a synthetic form of vitamin A, prescribed to dramatically shrink oil glands and force skin turnover. I knew there had to be a gentler way. That’s when I discovered the incredible power of beef liver—a natural, bioavailable source of preformed vitamin A (retinol).

I started taking high-quality, grass-fed beef liver capsules and watched my skin begin to regulate its oil production, reduce inflammation, and heal from within. It was like nature’s version of Accutane—without the harsh side effects.

2. Raw Kefir & Probiotic-Rich Foods

The gut-skin connection is real. When I focused on healing my gut by drinking raw kefir on an empty stomach every morning, I noticed massive changes—not just in digestion, but in my skin. My breakouts reduced, my inflammation calmed, and I felt more balanced overall.

Raw kefir is loaded with probiotics and enzymes that support your microbiome. When your gut is healed, your skin begins to reflect that internal balance.

3. Simple, Natural Skincare (Beef Tallow & Honey)

I ditched the 12-step routines, the acids, the benzoyl peroxide, and the harsh prescription creams. Instead, I switched to OneNaturl—my own skincare line made with 100% natural, ancestral ingredients like grass-fed beef tallow and raw honey.

Tallow is rich in skin-identical fats that help repair the barrier and deeply moisturize without clogging pores. Honey is antimicrobial, calming, and helps reduce redness and scarring. Together, they became the only skincare I truly needed.

And if tallow’s not for you, that’s okay—jojoba oil, rosehip oil, and maracuja oil are amazing natural alternatives I recommend too.

Where I Am Now

I no longer fear looking in the mirror. My skin is calm, clear, and glowing—not because I covered it up, but because I listened to my body and gave it what it needed. My mission now is to help others feel this transformation too.

Whether you’re just beginning your skin healing journey or you’ve tried everything like I did—this is your sign to return to nature, simplify your routine, and nourish from within.
