Normalize seeing skin texture, redness, and flares🌿
As we fully enter the summer period, I want to remind everyone we all have the power to help others feel more comfortable in their own skin.
I can happily say that personal contact and shared experience have helped me way more than all the topical treatments.
We don’t often see close-up, non-edited, highly detailed photos of skin textures online or on social media. I know this has affected me, I’ll never forget the day I got my iPhone 14 and hated how I could see all my pores and immediately started scrolling for a product to help reduce them.
Everyone has different genetics, oil glands, and hormone levels and therefore will have differences on their skin!! Having pores is normal!!
We need to normalize and realize that there isn’t one standard and type of skin we should idealize and place on a pedestal.
Our skin is not one size fits all. We all have different and varying degrees of skin conditions, texture, discoloration, and scars that tell the story of each individual.
Normal skin is dry for some people and oily for others. Or even a combination of both…
Like the body positivity movement, it can be challenging to come to terms with your own skin when beauty brands are constantly coming up with new products to solve problems you didn’t even know you had, and remind you of the ones you’ve always been insecure about.
if you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.
BE THAT GIRL, inspire others 🦋
