19 and still having skin problems?!
Damn you, mirrors with ultra bright light which make me see all my pores and imperfections on my face. And damn the mirrors which actually make me look kinda good, only to find out later that they showed everything better than it looks in real life.
Too bad that the stress I’ve been feeling for the last 6 months has its obvious effect on my skin (and that’s it’s forming a chicken-and-egg situation). It has been worse.. but it also has been way better. About 2 years ago my skin was a lot worse because of picking and having all kind of little wounds. The scars from that period are completely vanished now. So why do I keep getting all this scarring now from really little spots and why won’t it fade away, even when I’m using special skin products? It’s summer and I want to be able to get ready with just a little layer of foundation on my skin and not having to worry about it all the time. Every time some parts of my face seem to get better, other areas are showing new problems.
Patience. Time is all it takes. And good care and NO picking. And sun! (although sunlight can also damage your skin, causing permanent scars by ‘burning’ spots into your skin..) Wish it didn’t make me so insecure.
