Stress & Skin: Understanding the Mind–Skin Connection Behind External Skin

Stress is one of the most overlooked — yet powerful — contributors to premature ageing, inflammation, breakouts, sensitivity and impaired barrier function.

This advanced Murad PRO workshop explores the science of stress and skin, helping skin professionals understand how psychological, environmental and lifestyle stressors directly impact skin health — and how to treat it effectively.

This is where neuroscience meets skincare.

✔️ What stress actually is and how it shows up in the skin
✔️ The stress–brain–skin axis and its role in ageing and inflammation
✔️ Cortisol’s impact on collagen, barrier function and skin recovery

✔️ Cultural and lifestyle stressors affecting modern skin
✔️ The mind–gut–skin connection and its relevance in clinic
✔️ How Murad addresses stress-impacted skin through intelligent formulas and whole-person care
