[cringe] “I never put anything on my face.”

Congratulations, it sounds like you’ve been blessed with great skin! Many of us have followed similar routines as you, and it has NOT worked, so we’re here doing a multi-step routine to try to achieve what you naturally don’t have to work on. I’m not jealous of people who have good skin...but the truth is, I’m one of the only people I know that doesn’t have great skin. I’m surrounded by friends and family members with glowing skin...and I have had a shit show on my face (and back) since I was in the 5th grade. I’m 38 years old and still working on this. Trust me, I’ve tried simple routines. I’ve tried no routine. I’m here because working on my skin is the only thing that works for me and makes it better. So honestly, I could care less about what other people do to their skin...but these cringe posts make me feel better. It makes me feel like someone else in the world shares my struggle. If you don’t like a post, keep scrolling. I do not agree with all the comments on here, at all. But I thought the post was funny, and sometimes I need to laugh about these things...because the day to day of facing the world with bad skin isn’t very funny.
