Hello February, it's Me

Let's jump right in, why don't we? It's already February, which is crazy, but it's slowly crawling by and I'm oddly fine with it. After a warm Christmas season, I'm trying to cling to the cold weather as much as I can and wear all the layers until the air becomes too thick with humidity and I want to claw my clothing off (not in public obviously).

The Change Up: Skin Edition

If there was one thing I could have told myself when I was a teenager, it would have been to stop picking at the acne that plagued my face and stuck around like an uninvited guest. As a teenager I suffered from really bad acne and no matter what I did, it just didn't go away completely. Oh the woe of being a teenager right? By some miracle once I reached 19, all of my acne had really cleared up and my skin now has the marks from acne scars and some unevenness, but that's a lot better than clumps of zits on parts of my face. Anyways, aside from talking about acne over and over, these days as a 21-year-old, I've started to really try to take better care of my skin. I'm always looking to even my skin tone and fade away the scars from years before. Last month, I decided to change up my skincare routine (if you could even call it that) and invest in some nicer things to put on my face. And I'm working on washing my face twice a day now, rather than once in the shower. Oops.
