Skincare expert Ariane Turner has spent the last 20 years sharing her knowledge about skincare with her readers and social media followers—putting an emphasis on education. At the ESSENCE Wellness House, Turner called in some backup to get to the bottom of some of your biggest skincare question right now. Dermatologist, co-author of Fundamentals of Ethnic Hair-The Dermatologist’s Perspective, and author of 90 Days to Beautiful Hair, Dr. Crystal Aguh and dermatologist and dermatologic surgeon Dr. Michelle Henry dropped by to weigh in on protective styles, alopecia, hair shedding and “maskne” (acne caused from wearing face masks).
