Hailey Bieberis getting candid about a skin condition that she knows “a lot of other people” struggle with, too.

TheRhodefounder, 27, shared a TikTok this week where she describedher experience with perioral dermatitis, a condition that she described as “resembling acne or rosacea” that often involves “tiny red bumps that form on the lower half of the face” in areas around the nose and mouth.

“This is something that I have had since I was about 19 or 20,” Bieber said in her video. “And I know a lot of other people deal with it and struggle with it as well. I’m having a pretty bad flare up right now so I wanted to share what I use when I’m having a flare up.”

In the minute-long clip, Bieber gave fans a look at her skin, specifically the red spots that have formed. Detailing what she uses during a flare up, Bieber told fans that she sticks to a prescription Azelaic Acid cream, which she said “really helps” with her inflammation.

“And in the day time, I use something called Clindamycin, which is also a prescription you can get from a dermatologist,” she said, noting that the antibiotic helps “stop the growth of bacteria on the skin.”

As Bieber explained, she also uses herown brand’s Glazing milk, which she said is “super gentle” and helps “calm the skin,” as well as SPF during the daytime.

The model then showed off how her skin looked the following morning, noting that it looked “a lot less irritated.”
