My Story

How did you find ElsaGusa?

 I’ve been struggling with pimples and acne since I was 13. My skin was oily yet fragile, often red, irritated, and sensitive. I tried many methods—facials, antibiotics, and more—but nothing worked. In fact, things only got worse. When I started college and had to do presentations, I needed to wear makeup and remove it frequently. At that time, my entire face was covered with pimples, and it was extremely itchy. A dermatologist recommended Accutane, and I ended up taking it for two and a half years.

However, just three months after stopping the medication, my skin broke out again with acne and pimples. I felt completely hopeless. That’s when I came across Elsa’s book, "Why Isn’t Your Skin Getting Better?" in a bookstore. I took the book home and studied it thoroughly. Soon after, I began online consultations with Elsa.

How long did it take to improve?

With Elsa’s guidance, I was finally able to understand the root of my skin problems and learn the proper skincare routine. I sent her photos weekly to track my progress, and incredibly, my skin started improving in just three months! Thinking back still makes me emotional—something I had struggled with for 13 years got better in only three months!

(Of course, I still get the occasional pimple, but now I know exactly how to deal with it.)

How has your life changed since your skin improved?Once my skin got better, I stopped feeling anxious about acne. I became more confident and even fulfilled my childhood dream of becoming a makeup artist.

When did you become a skincare consultant?In 2018, I went to Taiwan to receive training as a skincare consultant. I got to observe live consultations and saw how patiently and kindly the consultants explained things to clients and taught them how to properly use skincare products.

At that moment, I thought, “If only I had found ElsaGusa earlier.”

Why did you bring ElsaGusa to Singapore?Singapore, like Taiwan, is hot and humid—perfect conditions for skin problems. Many people, especially teens, struggle with acne for years, just like I did.

I'm here to share skincare knowledge from someone who's been through it all—just like Elsa once helped me. I truly hope more people can experience the same transformation I did.
