In August 2019, Walmart launched an exclusive skincare line called Earth to Skin. I only just heard about it when my aunt told me to give it a try because her and my other aunt have been using it and enjoying it. I was mentally and financially preparing to splurge on Clinique but luckily my … Continue reading Earth to Skin: Is it a win?
It's been about two months since I finished my Accutane treatment and everyday I am still in shock that my skin is so FABULOUS. I'm obsessed. Every day, twice a day when I wash my face I cannot believe how smooth my skin is. In July (two-ish months into my treatment), my skin looked like … Continue reading Accutane update: Two months post-graduation
IAMO - I. Am. Missing. Out. I don't suffer from the fear of I'm missing out; I literally AM missing out. I'm twenty-four years young and all I do is wake up, go to work, and go home with a sprinkle of library trips and gym visits in between. I really try not to compare … Continue reading IAMO, not FOMO
On Tuesday I finished my final dose of Accutane and to say I am relieved is an enormous understatement! Hearing my doctor say "You've graduated!" was AWESOME. Not only am I so grateful the journey is over, I'm so happy with the results! After the thousands and thousands of dollars spent, a dozen of Dr. … Continue reading Accutane update: I’m a graduate!!
It's been exactly two months since I took my last "progress pics." I should mention that I really should have taken my previous pictures in better lighting because they barely show the redness. This is how my skin looks today: This is my skin fresh out of the shower with some moisturizer and in much better … Continue reading Accutane update: Five months down
I have been having headaches, well migraines, for almost a year now. Before then, I had never really suffered from headaches. But within the last year, especially the last few months, I have been getting them three to four times a week and they last at least two hours. Sometimes I will take some ibuprofen … Continue reading Headache solution: Putting my faith in the daith
I took these pictures on September 9th, right around my three month mark of being on Accutane. As you can see, my skin hasn't improved much. I still have new breakouts and the redness is pretty bad. However, in the beginning of July, my skin (pictured below) was the worst I had ever seen it … Continue reading Accutane update: Three months down
I have always had bad skin. You can sit there and tell me "It's not that bad!" or "Your skin is clear!" but I won't believe you. No, I don't have skin dysmorphia. I have acne. And I have had it since I was nine years old. And I am tired of it. I remember … Continue reading Why I’ve decided to finally go on Accutane
I am someone who constantly craves change. I am always changing little things in my life (like my phone background or the arrangement of furniture in my room) just to satisfy that craving. Even the simplest of changes are refreshing to me. The one thing I love changing is my hair. When it is short, … Continue reading It’s just hair…
