What are some natural remedies for a flawless skin that actually work?
The Boy Method.
I should really patent this system, because it has actually worked a miracle on my skin in the past few months.
When I was little, I hated my freckles. So one day, using that signature 10-year-old logic, I decided to scrub them off. Naturally, I ruined my skin and had to go to the hospital. While my skin was healing my doctor gave me a special soap to keep the wounds clean. That was my first experience with skincare products and I have used them daily since.
My regimen grew and grew until I was using approximately nine products daily. I was desperate for clear, no-foundation skin that looked like porcelain with freckles. I didn’t understand why it was so hard for me to achieve it. I kept adding new products, switching up my system, and doing everything I possibly could. I was spending hundreds of dollars on expensive treatments to clear it up.
Then, a few months ago, I came across a post with this picture:
And I got to thinking…
Why is this? What makes guys have great skin with no effort and girls go through hell and still have acne?
I came to two conclusions.
- Makeup.
- Stressing about skin causes stress pimples. It’s the cycle of life.
- Magic.
So I just… cut it all off.
Every day since I was ten years old, I have used skincare products and makeup.
But for the past month and a half, I have made a serious change in my lifestyle.
