ABOUT

Hi there! My name is Melanie Cheung and I am the creator of SKINFOGRAPHIX.

 

Growing up with acne since the age of 12 had a significant impact on my self-confidence and mental health. The condition of my skin led me to spend hours doing copious amounts of research in hope to find products which could help improve my skin. From topical treatments to Chinese and western medicine to facials, I have experienced first-hand many methods which are said to be able to treat acne. In hopes to find the ‘holy grail’ solution to ‘fix’ my skin, I found that overusing an abundance of products, which were marketed towards ‘fixing’ acne, did more harm than good to my skin. This was the biggest mistake I made during my skincare journey as using these products adversely damaged my skin barrier and worsened my condition. This was when I learnt that simplifying my routine and learning about the individual active ingredients and finding the right combination to be integrated into my routine was more important. 

 

Over the years, I learnt more and more about the uses for these different ingredients as well as other skin conditions that exist among the individuals around me. Seeing those around me struggle with their own skin issues, I wanted to create this blog in order to simplify the information I learnt from my research and collect it into an interactive and informative website. With this blog, I aim to guide others who are going through the same situation I went through to take better care of their skin, in hope of alleviating their physical and emotional distress. Thank you for visiting and supporting my blog and stay tuned for more posts to come!

 

With love,

Melanie
