‘And it wasn’t just pimples, it was cystic acne… I would find it really hard to find makeup that would work with me, it rattled me, I could deal with the stuff internally, I can hide things like being bruised and bloated from injections, but I think I felt the worst with my skin.

‘I couldn’t hide it and that’s why I started going, ”I need to put time and effort into something that works.”

Erin said she has a newfound confidence with her skin thanks to the products.

 ‘I did feel a real sense of loss and inadequacy just in my physical self and I think my confidence is something that has swayed up and down my entire life,’ she said.

‘I am so confident some days and others not at all, and for the first time I think I’ve felt what it is like to have days that are really a struggle.’

She added she suffers from adult acne after being diagnosed with polycystic ovaries. 

Erin also recently revealed that she feels heartbroken for her husband, cricketer Ben, who longs to be a father.

‘If it was something that I didn’t want, I wouldn’t be so upset. And when I look at Ben, he is so ready and so desperate to be a dad so I feel a real sense of inadequacy,’ she told Stellar Magazine.

The television presenter went on to reveal that she has mourned over her failed attempts to fall pregnant so far.

‘For someone who was never really very maternal at all, I was shocked by how much it affected me and I felt a real sense of loss of it being a natural process,’ she said.

‘When someone looks me in the eyes and asks how I am going, I can find it really hard to say I am fine when I am not’.
