Meet Our Expert: Dr. Karen Núñez Schmidt
As a naturopathic doctor, my approach focuses on addressing the root causes of chronic skin and gut concerns. With extensive training in botanical medicine and herbal formulations, along with continued education in functional dermatology, I strive to provide a deeper understanding of skin health and overall well-being.
Why I recommend Scrachee?
When I discovered Scrachee, I was immediately drawn to their thoughtful formulations. Their approach to skincare aligns with the principles I value in topical care, making their products a great addition to a well-rounded skin support routine.
As a naturopathic doctor, I appreciate skin-supporting ingredients. Here are some of my favorites in Scrachee’s products:
Neem (From Gold Up Oil)
A plant-based oil known for its skin-supporting properties, traditionally used to help maintain balance in sensitive skin.
1% Colloidal Oatmeal (From Soaked Body Cream)
Recognized for its soothing and skin-protectant properties, helping to temporarily relieve itching and irritation.
Beeswax (From Sleekly Balm)
Helps create a breathable barrier that locks in moisture and shields the skin from environmental stressors.
My Recommendations for Eczema-Prone Skin Using Scrachee:
✔ Cleanse – Opt for gentle, fragrance-free soaps.
✔ Balance – Use Gold Up Oil to support and nourish the skin.
✔ Moisturize – Apply Soaked Body Cream to help protect and soothe the skin barrier.
✔ Seal & Protect – Use Sleekly Balm to lock in moisture and shield against external irritants.
Holistic Skin & Gut Support – Healthy skin goes beyond what you apply topically. I explore factors like gut health, environmental triggers, and nutrition to help guide individuals toward overall skin wellness.
A Whole-Body Approach – Skin discomfort is often connected to deeper imbalances. My approach involves supporting gut-skin balance through nutrition, lifestyle shifts, and personalized wellness insights.
