Hi! I would like to share my skin irritation story. I want you guys to learn a lesson because damn it. This is not everyone's dream.
When this thing happen to me? May 20 2015, Wednesday.
Why? In my conclusion, I think it's because of my allergic (kuno) reaction from cheese sticks. But no, it's not. It actually from a facial mask that I used. I don't think it because the brand that I used. It's actually cheap facial mask that I bought and probably all of you are suspecting that it's a fake facial mask but no. I put the mask on my entire face and I read the instructions that you should remove the mask after 10- 15 minutes. Being a thrifty person, I don't want to throw a wet mask. Girl, I will not throw it unless it's fully dry.. that's what I thought. So, I put the mask for I don't know. 1 hour or so? Just when the face feels completely dry.
Honestly, I feel just.. nothing. I don't feel any itchy or irritation.
But then I woke up..
Day 1
May 20, 2015- Wednesday
Redness on my cheek area
On the side of my lips. Some redness on the other cheeks.
I feel so down that I don't want anyone to see my face. My mom actually blame me for putting too much makeup but I tell her that I don't wear makeup in a daily basis. I just take photos and quickly remove it. I promise.
Day 2
May 21, 2015- Thursday
Morning
After taking a bath
Good thing, all the redness are gone but you can still see some acne marks.
Day 3
May 22, 2015- Friday
Morning
Yay! It pretty.. a little.. nah, I still have those marks. But I'm really happy (see those smiles, huh?) that it became much better.
After taking a bath
Note: This is also the time when I put makeup for "filming" reason. So, It makes my skin a little worse.
I'm really nervous while putting makeup because I feel like it will became worse and yes, it is.
Day 4
May 23, 2015- Saturday
The redness show again because of what I did.
And dry patches are showing up. Even though, I don't even go outside.
Day 5
May 24, 2015- Sunday
I finally change my facial wash. I'm using the Pond's Acne Clear Facial Wash + Scrub, my cousin told me that it can be too harsh. I have dry skin and scrubbing my face every single day will make it worse.
So I try the Pond's Clear Solution Facial Scrub, I only use it when I wear makeup but I use Pond's Perfect Care Facial wash which is very delicate and definitely not scratching my face.
Day 13
June 1, 2015- Monday
This is my face like RIGHT NOW. Cheers for better skin!
I'm really thankful because all my acne are healed. Yes, I learned a lot. Don't leave your facial mask toooooooo long.
I hope all of you learned from my "little" experience. And oh, I went outside two times while I have this face. Definitely a pressure because I'm really afraid that someone will tease me. But my advice is to just be confident on what you have and who you are. You're beautiful. But still, you need to learn to love you skin just like loving yourself too.
Thank you for reading and enjoy your look.
