busting myths about skincare and acne (a thread):
i’m getting real sick and tired of people thinking that having acne makes you ugly, no. making fun of people with acne makes you ugly. check yourself
having acne is completely natural and normal. having acne on the face, chest, shoulders and back is normal as well. don’t be ashamed of it, don’t be embarrassed. you’re not the only one.
1.“if it burns, it means it’s working”
no! if it burns it means your skin is sensitive, you have an allergic reaction or your skin is irritated. “beauty is pain” does not have to apply with your skin. if it’s burning, remove with a cool damp cloth and let your skin breathe!
2.eating chocolates and sweets actually doesn’t cause acne. eating oily foods has not been scientifically proven to make your skin worse! acne is caused by an oily substance called sebum, so eating those types of food won’t make your skin bad.
oily foods are just not good for your overall health. so be careful with what you eat anyway
3.acne isn’t just caused bc of “ur products not working”, sometimes it’s bc of genetics or u not changing ur pillowcase. change ur bed sheets once a week! y’all are farting, sweating, cumming on ur bedsheets & sleep in the same ones & wonder why your skin is bad. change them!
4.facials are good for the skin
actually, they’re not. studies show that 80% of people experience intense breakouts after facials. facials don’t do much for your skin, the only thing they actually do is help you relax. they’re pretty much a waste of money
when dealing with skincare, you mustn’t aim for the “cleanest”, “clearest” skin ever. it’s not ideal. u will have one or two pimples & that’s okay. aim for the healthiest skin, the happiest skin. please don’t tear your skin away trying to achieve a look that just isn’t possible.
the more expensive a product is, doesnt mean its going to work. inexpensive products r most likely to work the same if not better.

also, ur more likely to achieve better skin using natural skin agents than skincare products from stores, such as aloe vera straight from the plant
and lastly, STOP USING FACIAL WIPES TO REMOVE YOUR MAKEUP. THEY DON’T HELP W SHIT. THEY’LL MAKE YOUR SKIN WORSE BECAUSE MOST OF THEN CONTAIN RUBBING ALCOHOL THAT WILL IRRITATE YOUR SKIN. don’t do it gorl.
this might be controversial but try avoiding taking skincare advice from people. rather go to a dermatologist. because most of the time, their skin is the way it is because of genetics and not necessarily because of what they use.
that’s all i got folks! tell me if you want more 💗
you’re beautiful! please don’t let a little acne get in the way of that. i love you bitch. i ain’t never gonna stop loving you............ bitch.
