The nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) is best known for its role in resistance to oxidant stress. In this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine , Nrf2‐prolonged genetic activation is shown with devastating effects on skin homeostasis. The study provides novel molecular insights into poison‐induced chloracne and metabolizing acquired dioxin‐induced skin hamartomas or MADISH.
