I myself come to realise that stress was my trigger, being a mum, the daily chores, working full time, studying, managing kids ensuring they get my time, helping them with homework etc and then working on the business. It all took a toll on my body and then when I spoke to my dermatologist she mentioned that although I may not feel stressed, it could be my body's way of showing it is stressed. So although I was not 'feeling' stressed I ensured I had a routine in my lifestyle where I would relax and just take time out for myself.
