Kristina Schulman has opened up on her long-term battle with a skin disorder.
‘The Bachelor’: Kristina Schulman Opens Up On Her Struggle To Deal With Her Skin Disorder
The star has been very vocal in the past about how she has been suffering from dermatitis. This condition causes the skin to become very irritated to the extent that it becomes red and flaky. And she made no efforts to hide the struggles that she had to go through in trying to overcome the condition.
In a post to her fans on Instagram, we can see a video of Kristina’s skin throughout the years as it shifts between mass irritation and cleanliness. The post was captioned by the following comments: “After years of quietly dealing with perioral dermatitis (PD), I wanted to open up and share my journey.
“I hope we can create a community where we can openly share our journey and success stories.” Despite her struggles to overcome the condition, it has not stopped her from trying to pursue a cure. Some of her efforts included a dairy/gluten-free diet, special make-up products and specialised detergent that aims to cater towards sensitive skin.
Although it was brave for Kristina to make those changes, it does beg the question of what she has to do in order to remove the problem. A certain section of the fans had suggested that the star should focus on being comfortable with who she is rather than trying to become over-consumed in tackling the problem. And yet, it is easy to say that when you are not suffering the problem yourself.
Former stars of the franchise, though, praised Kristina for her efforts. Ashley Iaconetti wrote: “Sharing this is going to make so many people feel less alone in this,” while Sarah Herron stated: “Kristina! This is so so so beautiful. Thank you for being willing to share. So many women are feeling deeply connected because of you right now. So powerful, this will only be the beginning of your healing.” It was very brave for Kristina to make herself vulnerable to the whole world. And there is no doubt that her actions have given others the confidence to tackle their own issues.
