Beauty Tips For Body Care
Two years ago, I suffered the worst hormonal acne outbreak of my life. It was on my chin, my chest, even my back - deep cysts and angry red marks. I was too ashamed to be seen without makeup, and wore clothes that would cover as much of my skin as possible. My confidence was wrecked. I was single, and my skin issues made me stop dating. I caught myself thinking "how could anyone love me like this?"And then one day my little brother said something to me that stuck with me."You are more than just your skin. So what if you have skin problems? So what if it's pretty bad? It doesn't make you any less deserving of love or happiness. It doesn't change who you are, or make you any less smart, or kind, or strong. It's just your skin, and you are so much more than that. If someone looks at you and only sees your skin and judges you for it, they're not worthy of being in your life anyway".I realized he was right. I felt like I didn't deserve good things anymore, because I was flawed.I decided that I wasn't going to let my skin ruin my life anymore. I stopped hiding myself away the way I had been, and stopped promising myself that I would start living my life again once my skin cleared up. I started to love myself again, instead of focusing on the parts of myself that I hated.And you know what? One day, when my skin was at its absolute worst, I went on a date with a man who saw me for everything that I am - not just my skin.You deserve happiness. You deserve love. You are more than your skin troubles. Don't let your skin be the only thing you see of yourself. There is so much more to you than that.
