Hailey Bieber may be known for her glazed donut complexion, but even she gets plagued with the occasional blemish. The rhode founder took to her Instagram Story on July 17 and shared a bare-faced selfie, opening up about her experience with perioral dermatitis via the caption. The photo is a close-up of Bieber's mouth, which has a few small blemishes surrounding it.
"Perioral dermatitis flare," she captioned the photo. Per the Cleveland Clinic, perioral dermatitis is a red rash that circles the mouth ("peri" means "around," and "oral" means "mouth") and can often look like acne. Usually flare-ups can be caused by the use of topical steroids, oral contraceptives, using heavy moisturizers and creams, or even chewing gum, though Bieber noted that her flare-ups have been the result of factors like traveling, sleep deprivation, stress, hormones, and sensitivity to certain skincare products.
