[Personal] Turns out my skin was dry this whole time!

Beauty Tips For Body Care
For years, I've struggled with acne and breakouts. I've used harsh face washes and lotions for oily skin, overwashed, and for a time even used the dreaded apricot scrub(!) Despite this, I've still had breakouts and misery.Then, one day it hit me like a sack full of bricks: my hair is dry. I have to be very good about keeping it moisturized, and don't wash it too much. So maybe my skin is the same way?Turns out that was true.So now, I use raw Shea butter as a night moisturizer, and wash it once a day with African black soap. In the morning, I use those Yes to Cucumber cleansing wipes for sensitive skin. The results were practically overnight, and more dramatic than I could ever imagine.I should've seen it coming. Overwashing hair causes it to over-produce oils to try to compensate. Skin is the same way- so basically now I feel stupid, but my skin is clear now, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
