𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐧

skin can change how someone is perceived on my dead pug named teddy. a hmtn but with glowy clear skin can come off way more attractive than someone with better bone structure but horrible skin

𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐯𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬

good skin can distract people from bad bones (to a degree), it makes the face look softer, healthier, and more pleasant to look at.
BUT
a low high-tier normie w/ flawless skin still gets mogged to death by a chadlite with subpar skin. the bones always win in the end but good skin can give you that +1 or +2 illusion boost fr.

these are tiny lil dots all over the skin, mostly on the nose, cheeks, or forehead.
they're normal but yeah they still gross me out lol. not smooth = not optimal.

𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬

they're like open pores but on steroids(shoutout @BlendedBlade) but they look larger, darker, and more noticeable.
gives that dirty appearance even if you wash your face. not sigma, its smegma and needs fixing.

acne is just yucky. it can really descend you hard, especially if it's cystic or covers big areas.
unless ur hmtn+, severe acne is instant subhuman

use a gentle cleanser morning & night
salicylic acid unclogs & exfoliates
retinoids (like adapalene or tretinoin) = GOAT for texture + acne
clay or charcoal masks 1–2x/week to suck out gunk
look for non-comedogenic products (won’t clog pores)

and pls for the love of mumbaidon’t pick at them that just makes it worse

🕳 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬

open pores are mostly genetic (unlucky ah )
BUT you can still minimize their appearance with the clogged pore routine above

exfoliate 2–3x/week (chemical exfoliants > physical)
niacinamide is great for tightening and controlling oil
consistent skincare = smaller-looking pores over time
not perfect, but can make a visible difference

𝐀𝐜𝐧𝐞

𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐝:

cleanser w/ benzoyl peroxide (BPO) or salicylic acid
add a topical retinoid like adapalene

𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞:

might need oral antibiotics (short term use)
accutane is your last hope if ur skin quality is that caca. brutal but effective but you will prob have to start moving like a vampire if u get on ts icl(skin becomes sensitive to sunlight)

𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞

once you’ve cleared up the junk, maintenance is KEY
get a facial every 3–6 weeks (helps clear out stubborn stuff + glow up, how long you should wait depends on your skin type)
stay consistent w/ your routine
always remove makeup/sunscreen at night
drink water too, ik it’s cliché but it helps a lil

𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐬?

see a derm. like yeah scrolling on hygiene tiktok is fun but don’t listen to some rando talk about what worked for their skin

dermatologists can give you prescriptions that actually work
save time, money, trial & error
( insurance might cover it too if it’s acne-related )
