Beauty Tips For Body Care
I came across some research for habit reversal therapy. This focus was to stop people from pulling their hair, but it can be easily applied for skin picking. This procedure can be easily done yourself and it has a 99% success rate in trials so it is a stong evidence based therapy.Also... And this seems crazy... But the people who really stuck by this stopped in a day so it is extremely effective.Learn to become aware of how often it is happening. Keep track of when and how often it happens.In trials this was the BIGGEST cause of success so if you do anything do this. Really describe in detail what you are doing when you are skin picking to figure out what the first warning signs that you are about to skin pick. What are the urges, sensations, or thoughts that are happening.I am also a fan of 'don't break the chain' calendars. Put a calendar by your mirror and a dot by the days you leave your face alone and connect those dots with a line. You can find easily printable calenders by searching 'Don't Break the Chain'Interrupt your skin picking. This is partly why you have to be aware of when it is happening so you can stop it.Do something that keeps you from skin picking. Clench your fist or grasp an object... Maybe your toothbrush.Seek social reinforcement for leaving your face alone. Tell a trusted friend... Hey I have left my skin alone for 3 days. Or you can post on here!Get treatment for your acne if that's why you are picking.... If you don't have the acne in the first place you can't pick at it!Good luck friends! Feel free to post pics of your calendars or your progress, I'll be more than happy to give you all the praise.
