I don't think I've talked about my huge huge acne breakout (for me)...like ever, but you did see my last post, and let's all agree my skin was not in it's best condition. WHO LIKES ACNE? NO ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I started breaking out really badly after coming back home from California in August (spent two weeks there)....and while I was there my skin was NEVER improving, it would stay the same (with pimples here and there, some were growing), or it would just progressively worsen -- no matter what I did, it was just totally not working at all!!
I was frustrated because my skin had cleared up quite well before going to California, and I was looking forward to a cleaner complexion, but NO!!! I didn't eat the best while in California, okay!! Like who would pass on such good food? Also experienced KOREAN BBQ and ate octopus for the first time in my life (not a really big fan, just not for sea food in general) -- I KNOW BOOHOO.
So anyways, I came back home for SOCAL,and my skin started to improve way more, it was starting to clear up, and then BAAAM huge breakout, even on my cheeks -- seriously the first time in my life that I've ever broken out on my cheeks? Picture is a bit graphic though....here it is:
Okay, I admit this isn't severe acne, but for me this is because it's the worse condition my skin has ever been in. This was when my skin was also doing a bit better, I just can't find the earlier ones, I'll see if I can find them.
Yes, I went to school like this -- only with my skincare layered right on top, with no concealer, foundation,bb cream whatsoever -- I put my skin out there...it's not like I didn't care, I did. I never really cared about what people thought about myself or my skin -- if I'm comfortable then I'm happy. But there were many people who would point it out, like "Janie, you're breaking out! OMG."
Don't worry guys, we are human and human beings are allowed to break out, we aren't meant to be perfect. Now that my skin has recovered, and now that I look back -- man it really was bad, like my bumps were literally three-dimensional??? like you could see it like "Standing up/out'?? is that the correct term, but you know what -- I would rather let people see it openly than hiding it behind makeup just making it worse for my skin. I will do a video on items I used soon!!! So if you're excited comment below or give this a "+1" ??? yaaaaas, :) lol. Don't be insecure about such silly things that people make fun of you for, our human bodies do amazing things to help us get better -- be who you want to be, no actually be yourself!! Stay tuned for future blog posts and reviews and videos!!
Here is my current skin -- one in natural lighting and one in flash. Yes my dark circles are horrible, but I've been loving my skin so much lately!! Want to see a skin care routine?? Just comment down below!! Thanks for reading!!~~~~~
