I bet almost everyone in the beauty blogging world would probably know about their skin? Or even, their skincare? Well most. There are people who seem to think they know it all. I, for sure, am not a know-it-all person.

On my previous blog, I blogged about skincare as though I knew everything about it. In fact, I don’t! I just don’t. I am still learning. Every since leaving the skincare industry (work wise), I’ve learnt about my skin. I learnt how dry & sensitive my skin is. It still is! What’s worse? Acne was added. Sigh. This couldn’t get any worse? I was clueless as to how am I going to cure this acne of mine. So I looked through my skincare routine to see if there was anything wrong. Nothing was wrong. I just needed to switch up the products. I switched my skincare routine once in a while. I went from a very high end (and bloody expensive) cleanser to Cetaphil and, my toner to a Garnier astringent. I also switched my moisturiser. If I tell you this, don’t follow. Everyone is different. We all have different skin type. You might have sensitive skin too but it doesn’t mean you should use the same product as I am? No. Find something that could cater to your skin.

Okay back to skincare talk. I did that routine for 6 months. After a good 6 months, my acne stopped. I was surprised. Well, that recovery was also because I didn’t give a fuck what people were staring at. Yes, I got stares. After not giving a fuck about it, my skin became better. Although scars appear to be obvious, I am happy that my skin isn’t at a worst state. Oh, excuse my French. It just had to be said. If you get stares, don’t care for it! One thing I learnt throughout this process, I can’t wear face oil. I find that it clogs my pores. You know what happens when your pores get clogged.

If you care so much for your skin, stop caring what other people are thinking or even staring at. Find the solution. Go to a dermatologist if you can’t solve it. Once you stop caring what other people are thinking, everything will go as according the way you want it to be.

Also, just because a blogger blogs about a certain product doesn’t mean you should purchase it too. Rather than spending so much money on products and realising those products aren’t working on your skin then complaining it was a waste of money, keep the money and save up for a dermatologist. Remember, beauty products have expiry dates. You don’t want to pile it up and regretting about purchasing the product once you find out it has expired. If you have found the right product for you, good! Keep it. Don’t remove it from your routine just because someone else says it isn’t working on them.
