“This is something that I have had since I was about 19 or 20, and I know a lot of other people deal with it and struggle with it as well,” she said in a video shared to TikTok in which she showed off her irritated skin.
“I’m having a pretty bad flare up right now so I wanted to share what I use when I’m having a flare up.”
Bieber says the condition manifests itself as “tiny red bumps that form on the lower half of the face” around her nose and mouth.
Expert say it is common and can be treated effectively.
They also say women between 25 and 45 are vulnerable to the condition — especially those who use topical steroids and face creams.

Bieber also gave fans a look at her skin in her one-minute TikTok clip, showing them the red spots she had developed.
She added she uses a prescription Azelaic Acid cream to fight it, which she said “really helps” with her inflammation.
“In the day time, I use something called Clindamycin, which is also a prescription you can get from a dermatologist. (It helps) stop the growth of bacteria on the skin,” she said.
The socialite, who married singer Justin Bieber in 2018, added she also uses her beauty brand’s Glazing milk, which she said is “super gentle” and helps “calm the skin.”
She captioned her clip: “Perioral Dermatitis! Lets talk about it.”

Her fans filled the comments section of her post to praise her for being open about her health.
Bieber previously opened up about her experience with the condition in 2022, when she posted an Instagram Story and said she’s had it for a “few years.”
She said at the time she was aiming to be “as transparent as possible about my skin.”
“It gets triggered by different things and usually shows up on my cheeks, around my mouth or sometimes around and under my eyes,” Bieber added at the time.
“Some things I noticed trigger it: trying a new product, a product that’s too harsh, weather, masks, sometimes certain SPF.”
She also suffered a mini-stroke in 2022, which led to the discovery of a heart condition.
