I’m purging after a chemical peel and the most hideous pustule has sprouted forth from my face. Whenever I get a zit here and there I feel so intensely grateful because my skin was terrible as a kid and young adult and I never thought it would be possible to have clear skin! šŸ’Œ it really puts things into perspective for me and reminds me of how far I’ve come

I got a facial for the first time yesterday and she squeezed every flaw I didn’t know existed out of me. ā€œSome of that was probably in there for years,ā€ she said. Now I can’t stop thinking about having my impurities painfully removed again.

Weird as hell at first but beautiful beautiful skin when you push through the purging stage. God grant me the serenity… šŸ™ˆ

also kind of hate this, but as an almost-25-year-old woman with constant cystic acne it makes me feel like i’m taking care of myself as best i can.
instead of dropping money on tiktok ā€koreanā€ skincare that makes you have ā€œglass skinā€ i can talk to a literal doctor.
although i’m starting to think the idea of ā€œclear skinā€ is perhaps unattainable for me, i can at least try until i’m too tired to care.
i’ve been trying for over ten years now…no end in sight.

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too šŸ’Œ
