Beauty Tips For Body Care
So I'm in my hometown for holidays and decided to go to esthetician with hyperhidrosis issue. It turned out that having botox in my armpits would be a good idea, so while doing it I also asked for a consultation about my face. For reference, I'm 25f with (as I thought) quite decent skin for my age - no acne, no sunspots, just some tiny fine lines. I am also quite confident about my skincare since all ingredients and approaches are backed by science and fit me well (again as I thought). But when we proceeded with a consultation I started to feel terrible. The esthetician is quite famous and has a medical background so I feel like I should trust her with the statements she made... but I just can't. Here is what she told me:My skincare is a disaster since I'm using lower-level brands like Cerave, TO, LRP. She implied that I have blackheads (while it's definitely sebaceous filaments) and that I should switch to medical-grade skincare (she recommended Medik8).I need to have botox in my jaw because square jawline isn't feminine enough. Also in my chin, as she claimed that I tend to do a particular facial expression... which I don't.I need to have fillers in my nasolabial. Well, due to my facial structure I tend to have nasolabial folds but I never thought they are already prominent enough to have fillers at the age of 25.I have rosacea and my mom with the same condition at her age already should have developed severe stage (while in reality my mom only has some minor redness).I have to visit an esthetician every two weeks to "calm down my skin". My skin is calm most of the time unless I'm hot, cold or nervous and I guess it's quite natural to blush in these conditions.She was quite opposed to tret "until I figure out the rest of my routine". She never asked which ingredients I'm using, only the brands.She said I should drop the acids since my face should immediately get red and irritated by using them. It's not... The AHAs+BHAs toner was the only thing that helped me to get rid of CC's.And much more. I don't know how to feel right now. Every time that I come back to this discussion in my mind it literally breaks my heart. Am I indeed doing all wrong? She is a professional and I don't have any education or experience related to skincare. It was probably quite bold from me to assume that I know what my skin needs. I lost all confidence right now and honestly, don't know what do to...Sorry for being chaotic with this story. I still have mixed feelings and English is not my native language.TLDR: First visit to the esthetician and she told me that my skincare is terrible and I have to get botox and fillers everywhere.
