Meet The Prescriber: Whitney Yeboah

We’re all familiar with Skin + Me’s dermatologists on The Dose, but today we’re introducing you to the Prescribing Team. Our Prescribers are our in-house pharmacists tailoring your personalised solution every month and making sure you get exactly what you need from your Daily Doser. Say hello to Whitney 👋

What made you want to join Skin + Me?

“After developing cystic acne as an adult, I started educating myself more about my skin so that I could get it under control. All this research fostered my love for skincare. 

“I found my whole experience with acne anxiety-provoking. For me, it highlighted the need for an accessible specialist dermatology service in the UK. It’s so hard to get a dermatologist referral these days, especially for acne.

“Joining Skin + Me has been the best career decision I’ve made. I love working with such an innovative team, I love supporting our customers and the best part of the job is seeing real progress and peoples’ lives change – there’s never a dull moment.”

How did you become interested in pharmacy?

“I’ve always loved maths, business and chemistry – they were my favourite subjects at school. When I applied for university, I knew I wanted to go down the formulation and medicinal chemistry route. Pharmacy ticks all the boxes for me, combining consultation skills with formulation knowledge and business management – perfect.”

What does your current daily skincare routine look like?

“I start the day with CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser and moisturise with CeraVe Moisturising Lotion. I use SPF everyday, always La Roche-Posay Anthelios Fluid Sun Cream SPF50.

“In the evenings I double cleanse with Garnier Micellar Water and then CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser.I use my Skin + Me Daily Doser and follow again with CeraVe Moisturising Lotion.”

Do you have any holy grail products that you swear by?

“My CeraVe Cleanser and my SPF – I can’t live without them.”

What do you get up to in your spare time?

“I love to read – I’m a big fan of self-help books on personal growth and development. One of my faves is a book on mind management called The Chimp Paradox by Steve Peters. 

Oh, and I’m also partial to a weekend brunch! Who doesn’t love a Mimosa?”

A quick ask around party season skincare. How do you keep your skin looking fresh? Any tips?

“For the party season, my biggest tip is keeping the skin super hydrated especially as it gets colder. Switch up your skincare routine and opt for more gentle cleansers and hydrating moisturisers. I already use the CeraVe moisturising lotion all year round which is a good option – key ingredients to look out for are ceramides and hyaluronic acid.”
