some of the nicest things people have said to me
‘I like your skin, it’s all bumpy, like a sensory board, I wanna touch it!’
‘you’re flatter than my face after my girlfriend sits on me’
‘IF YOUR LANKY TREE ASS DOUBTS THAT I CAN EVER BECOME SICK OF YOU THEN YOUR WRONG MY LITTLE GAY FRIEND I AINT GETTING SICK OF YOU NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO YOUR STUCK WITH MY DUMBASS NOW WEATHER YOU LIKE IT IR NOT YOU ARE SO MUCH TO ME AND I CANT SEE MYSLEF WITHOUT YOU 💙’
‘I don’t hate you! You’re one of my best friends!
‘bitch, fuck off, I love you platonically’
just popped a bunch of acne and then wiped over the spots with hydrogen peroxide before washing it, both to disinfect it and because I wanted to see what would happen. it didn't hurt and was just kinda tingly. a little disappointed tbh
I Can't Unseen What I Saw And I Can't Unfeel What I felt.! Sad truth
You will always think N2m will solve your problems until you make N2m. You will think traveling abroad will solve your financial problems until you start living abroad.
You will struggle from getting student visa to looking for a good job, permanent residency, worrying about mortgages, insurance premiums, taxes and stuff,even though you might be more comfortable than when you where in your home country.
When you’re single, you will think marriage will remove loneliness until you get married.
The future and goals are deceptive.
They appear as final solutions to life’s struggles. But they’re mere junctions in the long, complex journey we’re into on earth.
Life is in phases…. but struggle is constant. No matter the money, passport or location, everyone is battling pains per time.
Nothing will take away all struggles. You can only get NEW struggles. Our wish and prayers is that the new struggle should be less brutal than the former, but we must have some discomfort.
It’s an existential principle.
Orderliness is a fantasy, chaos is the rule of nature.
Completely forgot to post this here, but haven’t exactly been punctual with my art Instagram either.
Exploring the theme of "insecurities" and how seemingly simple issues can throw off our whole perception of ourselves. . Acne is painful, as well as unsightly, and is sometimes misunderstood by those who are lucky enough to not struggle with it. . There are many causes, and even more options for healing or maintaining it but everyone's body is different and it takes time to find our own individual solutions. . Hiding away seems to be the easiest but most cowardly option; accepting that it is not permanent and does not reflect your thoughts or abilities has helped me to see past the frustration of this near-daily occurrence and be "brave" enough to not wear makeup on some days. Though it'd be better if it could go away for good! 🙏🏻
boy am i glad that small white dot on my face no one would've mentioned is now a swollen red splotch that can't be hidden

Life is not being fun to me right now.
I haven't slept well in days, I probably have ADHD, I'm stressed out because I want to buy a telescope but there's so much stuff to it and my parents just take it chill and don't care about the complexities, I miss my friends, I barely get to talk to people, and I'm losing people with each passing year and I never know how to get back in touch with them, my parents argue a lot, the whole family is disorganised and nobody talks to each other, I've got a pimple behind my ear that's annoying me, I'm scared of using Acne Cream because it requires daily use and I don't know if I'm up to that and the side effects concern me, and nothing feels like it matters anymore.
I just wish I could run away and see everyone again. And stay in touch with them. And just be happy with them forever.
Advice for mixed skin types be like “treat this part of ur face this way and this part that way” but what they don’t know is that the same exact parts of my face are oily and peeling at the same hekkin time ‘:\
Something about it is just so beautifully human
To me at least, acne is beautiful. I can't really explain why but like it looks good, nothing you need to be ashamed of.
Easy Makeup Tips for a Quick, Flawless Look
When it comes to makeup, I like to keep things simple and efficient, especially on busy days. Over time, I’ve found a routine that works for me and gives me a polished look without spending hours in front of the mirror.
First things first: I always start with a clean, moisturized face. I give my skin a few minutes to soak in the moisturizer—it makes a huge difference in how smoothly makeup applies.
Next, I apply a makeup primer with rice protein. This step is essential for keeping my skin matte and shine-free all day. Having dealt with acne in the past, the "dewy" look isn’t for me, so this primer is a game-changer.
Most days, I skip the heavy stuff like foundation, concealer, and powder unless I’m going for a full-face look. Instead, I focus on enhancing my eyes and brows.
My Quick Eye & Brow Routine:
Brows: I use a brow tint to define my shape and pluck any stray hairs to keep things clean and tidy.
Eyeshadow: Since I have hooded eyes, I keep it simple:
Apply a light, sparkly shadow on the brow bone for a subtle highlight.
Use a darker shadow on the upper lid for depth.
Finish with a white, shimmery shadow on the inner corners for brightness.
Eyeliner: A thin line of black liquid liner on the outer half of my top lid with a small wing works wonders for my eye shape.
Optional Pop: Sometimes, I’ll add white eyeliner on my waterline to make my eyes appear bigger.
Mascara: A few coats to define my lashes, and I’m good to go!
For lips, I keep it low-maintenance with a swipe of clear gloss or Vaseline. It keeps my lips hydrated all day without feeling sticky or heavy.
Life Hack:
If you struggle with oil and shine throughout the day, makeup blotting papers are your best friend. These small, portable sheets soak up excess oil without messing up your makeup. They’re compact enough to fit in a pocket or purse, making them perfect for touch-ups on the go.
This routine is quick, easy, and leaves me feeling confident without overdoing it. What’s your favorite go-to makeup trick? Share it below—I’d love to hear!
Skin Care Struggles and Solutions at 28: My Hormonal Acne Journey
Dealing with hormonal acne has been one of my toughest challenges. At one point, I even tried Accutane. While it reduced some breakouts, it didn’t fully solve the problem—instead, it left me with painfully dry skin and frequent nosebleeds. Eventually, I learned that my acne was tied to PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), which affects hormone levels.
After consulting a dermatologist, I started spironolactone, a prescription medication that helps lower testosterone levels. This reduced oil production, acne, and even some excess hair growth. It was a turning point in managing my skin.
However, I made a lot of mistakes early on that worsened my acne, especially when I was a broke young adult working full-time. I couldn’t afford an elaborate skincare routine, so I mixed products from different brands—like Clinique, Cetaphil, and even Dollar Tree finds. This combination often irritated my skin and likely contributed to more breakouts. The best decision I made was sticking to one skincare brand for my entire routine. I chose Neutrogena for its affordable and effective products, which kept my routine simple and consistent.
Here are the key takeaways from my journey:
💗 See a dermatologist – They can help identify the root cause of your acne and suggest effective treatments like spironolactone.
💗 Pick one brand and stick to it – Mixing products from different companies can cause ingredient conflicts. I had much better results when I committed to Neutrogena’s full product line.
💗 Hydrate and manage stress – Drinking water and finding ways to reduce stress made a big difference for my skin.
💗 Invest in the basics – Even on a budget, prioritize a gentle cleanser, a targeted treatment, and a good moisturizer over random extras.
Skincare is a personal journey, and what works for one person might not work for another. Stay consistent, be patient, and don’t hesitate to get professional advice!
Okay, I asked ChatGPT to make me a monthly planner for taking care of my face. I really want to try it out. It didn't seem like anything was crazy extreme. Here is the result:
Certainly! Here's a monthly planner for facial skincare tailored to someone with sensitive skin:
Week 1:
Day 1-3: Gentle Cleansing & Moisturizing
Cleanse your face with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser morning and night.
Apply a soothing, hydrating moisturizer after cleansing.
Day 4: Exfoliation
Exfoliate with a sensitive-skin-friendly exfoliant (1-2 times a month).
Week 2:
Day 8-14: Cleansing & Hydration
Continue with your gentle cleansing and moisturizing routine.
Week 3:
Day 15: Exfoliation
Exfoliate with a sensitive-skin-friendly exfoliant (1-2 times a month).
Day 16-21: Cleansing & Moisturizing
Stick to your gentle cleansing and moisturizing routine.
Week 4:
Day 22-28: Focus on Hydration
Prioritize hydration with a hydrating sheet mask or a hydrating serum.
Note: Adjust the schedule as needed based on your skin's response. Always perform a patch test for new products, and consult a dermatologist if you experience any adverse reactions or concerns about your sensitive skin.
Remember, consistency is key in skincare, and for sensitive skin types, using gentle, fragrance-free products is crucial to prevent irritation.
