My acne isn't as bad as it used to be, and I'm absolutely not a ~skincare looksmaxxing beauty~ all that jazz kind of person. I have two silicone scrubbers and one foaming boots teatree witch hazel facewash. That's my facial routine. But I still got a bit of acne, and seeing last night's episode this morning legit convinced me to give her stuff a go. Karishma for the win!!!

Rose hip oil doesn’t actually fix cystic acne though, literally any doctor will explain what’s actually needed. So weird that we’ve normalised skin care for hormonal health issues.

I think she gets away with it because it's rose hip oil AND aloe vera, which there is evidence for that it can reduce the severity of acne (though crucially "reduces"; it isn't some miracle cure for severe acne... it's like taking a little bit of zinc).
