Acne.

For anyone struggling with Acne this is for you.

I started struggling with acne during my early adulthood and most people had their fair share during puberty, well that's not how it happened for me. It feels like puberty really hit me in 2020 after covid and then I started breaking out on my face, wearing the face mask really doesn't help. My acne has improved tremendously because I used to have really bad and almost severe acne from 2020-2021 and I felt so hideous because of it. My self-esteem took a big hit but little by little I started to realize this is only temporary and I am still beautiful no matter what. After going through many rounds of treatment for acne with my primary care doctor as well as my dermatologist my skin is finally improving, I did however experience some break out last month but it is the summer months and it's humid... there's a lot of UV rays out because of the sun so make sure you wear sun-screen (even if you're black). that's my little story.

Having acne doesn't take away from your beauty, you are still beautiful. it might feels like everyone is staring but trust me you are still you and one day your face will clear and your beauty will shine even brighter :)
