Social media is lying to you about perfect skin

Don’t believe everything you see on social media 😘

We all go through our reptile eras🦎 shedding exoskeletons at times, so remember to be kind to yourself because nobody looks at your face as closely as you do. I know these current scabs are temporary and voluntary but I used to have intense, painful acne all over my face, back, and chest which would leave pigmentation that wouldn’t fade for months. If I went to a spa or got a massage, they would always ask what was wrong with me because it was so severe. I was embarrassed to leave the house at times and even felt like I was a terrible example of a Korean woman since everyone assumed Korean women had perfect skin.

All that to say, don’t let unrealistic “perfection” on your feed make you feel bad about where you are right now. We are all humans with zits and scars. Give yourself grace, let yourself feel better with some makeup, but also let yourself receive kindness without makeup too. Here’s to us all being works in progress 🫶

(For those curious I had the moxi laser and the little scabs are called “mends” which shed over the course of 1 week)
