what do we call that? growth 😌
imagining how much further i’d be if i didn’t lose my sunscreen every few days 🥴
i don’t have acne or anything, i’d just damaged my moisture barrier! the products that helped me most were

- @PaulasChoice enriched calming toner
- @stratiaskin liquid gold (this is the biggest thing that helped i swear)
- purito centella green level buffet serum (when i had active breakouts or irritation)
- a solid simple moisturizer
- and SUNSCREEN !!!! (Kao Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence and Dear, Klairs - Soft Airy UV Essence are faves)
ALSO!!!!! @cerave healing ointment or rosehip oil every night

i’m not gonna make a 50 tweet long thread so i won’t go into more detail than that for now lmao but those and a gentle cleanser were my barrier saviors and then after i got that together i started incorporating +
chemical exfoliants into my routine again to help w the dark marks. so now i use:

- Some By Mi, AHA BHA PHA 30 days miracle cream
- Good Molecules Overnight Exfoliating Treatment
- or @OleHenriksen PHAt Glow Facial

once or twice a week.
oh and i use the @beautylish good molecules discoloration correction serum daily (and i have for like a cool 4 months now or something)
