Still breaking out after the dermatologist? Me too.

Things I told myself for 10 years. Do any of them sound like you?

  • “My skin cleared up while I was seeing a dermatologist, then it came right back.”

  • “I bought every product people swore by, and sometimes my skin got worse.”

  • “I looked into skincare programs, saw the price, and quietly closed the tab.”

  • “After 10 years, I still didn’t know why I was breaking out.”

Dermatologist visits helped, but if my habits stayed the same, the breakouts came back.

So I read 1,534 acne studies and built a questionnaire about the everyday habits linked to acne.

How many of these sound like you?

  • My skin only gets better while I’m seeing a dermatologist, then it flares up again
  • I’ve collected products everyone recommends, and my skin stayed the same or got worse
  • When I think about the money and time I’ve spent on acne, I feel deflated
  • I’ve looked in the mirror before plans and not wanted to go out
  • When someone takes a photo, I cover my face first
  • I don’t know why I keep breaking out

I went around this cycle for 10 years.

Try what works for everyone else, and when it doesn’t, go looking for the next thing.
Along the way, my money, my time, and my confidence all shrank. How many times around are you?

Why does it keep coming back?

After reading acne research and sorting through countless YouTube videos and blog posts, I found that the reasons people break out vary quite a lot from person to person. And yet I had only been copying what worked for other people. If I didn’t know what in my own life was getting in the way, any fix would only last a little while.

  • Genetics
  • Hormones
  • Medications and supplements
  • Diet
  • Cleansing and skincare
  • Sleep and stress
  • Contact and environment

Which of these is your acne coming from?

So I decided to flip the order

Before looking for a fix, I’d first find out where in my life the problem was.

Me, before

  1. I copied whatever worked for other people
  2. Even when it calmed down, it came back
  3. I went looking for the next fix

Me, now

  1. I look at where my acne is coming from first
  2. I can see which habits to change
  3. I change one thing a day

So I made a questionnaire

I narrowed down the questions I wanted to ask myself to about 40. Once you answer them all, you can see where the problem was.

1

About 40 questions, 10 minutes

Answer honestly about what you eat, how you sleep, and how you wash and what you put on your skin.

2

Sorted into 7 areas

We connect your answers and show you, in order, which areas matter most.

The Angry Puku character

Hi, I’m Puku.

  • Over the 10 years I struggled with acne, I saw dermatologists and tried expensive skincare. But if my daily habits didn’t change, the breakouts came right back.
  • I realized I couldn’t rely on dermatologists and skincare alone, so I’m building this service to make it easier to check in on my whole lifestyle and change it.
  • I picked each question while reading about 1,500 research papers on acne. The report covers the things suspected of causing acne and the approaches people with acne have actually tried.
  • It’s still a small service, and I’m truly grateful to every single person who uses it. If you share your honest thoughts, I’ll keep making it a little better every day.
