Back in July 2024, the Kissing Booth alum shared her skin condition, perioral dermatitis, which causes "a red rash that circles the mouth. The skin turns scaly and flaky with inflamed bumps. It can itch and burn," as per Cleveland Clinic.

"I'm trying to stop my prescription stuff to make it go away on its own," the Family Affair actress said at the time. "I just stopped it like a week ago, I started using my other skincare and, you can't really see it right now, but it's like coming back. And I have literally no idea what to do about it."
