Quitting skincare
Hi everyone,
I’ve been using skincare since I was around 20 — from multani mitti (which once led me to a dermatologist), to aloe vera gel, to a more structured routine with Cetaphil cleanser, Simple moisturizer, and the COSRX essence.
Now I’m 27, and honestly... nothing has changed. I still struggle with hormonal acne. Some days my skin looks clear, and then it flares up out of nowhere. I’m truly fed up.
What makes it harder is seeing my brother, mom, and dad — all with naturally beautiful, clear skin — who don’t use a single product. And then there’s me, trying everything and still suffering. Why?
Right now, I feel like letting it all go — quitting skincare completely and just freeing myself from the pressure. I’d really value your suggestions. Is it okay to just stop? Will my skin heal on its own?
