Robyn McAlpine is a big skin nerd, skin lover and BS hater. She loves dispelling skin myths and breaking down the beauty industry hype with skin science and common sense, to prevail over fad beauty treatments and miracle skincare products.

Her career began in beauty therapy well over a decade ago and her unbridled curiosity lead her to study corneotherapy, focusing on skin anatomy and physiology of skin cells and their function. This fuelled her passion for skin health and she adapts these methodologies into her practice at SkintifiX, her skin clinic based in Newcastle, NSW.

When not saving skins or creating the best facials on the planet, Robyn loves to travel off the beaten track, hike through the bush, climb mountains and make friends in new places

She believes pineapple belongs on pizza and that you are at your most attractive when you are living a life that you love.
