Face Mapping 101:
What Your Skin is Trying to Tell You
Ever wondered why the same pesky pimples keep showing up in specific areas? It might be time to look beyond your skincare products and consider what your skin is saying about your internal health. Chinese face mapping, an ancient practice known as Mien Shiang, suggests that breakouts on different areas of the face correspond to imbalances within the body.
At Glo Younger, we take a holistic approach to skincare. Because true glow comes not just from treating the surface but from nurturing your overall health and wellbeing.
The Face Map Explained: What Your Breakouts Reveal
Forehead – Digestive Health and Stress
Breakouts on your forehead are often linked to digestive issues or stress. A poor diet or irregular sleep patterns may also be culprits.
Skinvestment Tip: Hydrate, eat unprocessed foods and prioritise quality sleep. A consistent routine can ease both skin and stress.
Between the Eyebrows – Liver and Detox
Pimples between the brows may indicate that your liver is overworked from alcohol, dairy or heavy foods.
Skinvestment Tip: Take a break from alcohol and enjoy detox-friendly foods like leafy greens to support liver function.
Cheeks – Lungs and Environment
Breakouts on the cheeks can reflect respiratory health or environmental irritants like pollution. Dirty phones and pillowcases can also aggravate this area.
Skinvestment Tip: Wash your pillowcases regularly, clean your phone and avoid smoking where possible to support your skin and lungs.
Nose – Heart and Circulation
The nose is linked to heart health and circulation. Breakouts or redness here may reflect stress, high blood pressure or a salty diet.
Skinvestment Tip: Manage stress, monitor your blood pressure and reduce caffeine and processed foods.
Jawline and Chin – Hormones
Hormonal fluctuations often show up along the jawline and chin. This can occur during menstruation, pregnancy or periods of stress.
Skinvestment Tip: Balance hormones by managing stress levels, eating well and staying active. If persistent, speak to a healthcare provider for additional support.
Around the Mouth – Digestive System
Breakouts near the mouth are often related to digestive issues or food sensitivities.
Skinvestment Tip: Identify potential food triggers and introduce probiotics and fibre-rich foods to promote gut health.
Why Holistic Skincare Matters
Chinese face mapping teaches us that skin issues are often connected to the body’s internal state. Addressing these imbalances alongside quality skincare can lead to more sustainable results.

Aging youthfully is not about chasing perfection but about embracing self-compassion and making choices that nurture your body and skin every step of the way. Breakouts become an opportunity to understand and care for yourself more deeply.
