To be honest, I cheat my skin here by using Photoshop. That's the only thing I touch up okay, I didn't even use anything to re-shape my face or body. I have a bad skin condition and I think it's eczema. Seriously, been suffering from it for almost a few weeks or so but it started to get better and I don't even have to go to a dermatologist for advice. Oh btw, this picture is after when I start to figuring out how to cure my face that's why it's easy to Photoshop but before that . . well I'm too afraid to look myself in the mirror already lol.
This is my symptoms or the things I feel on my face:
- Face feeling tight
- Painful to smile
- Rough surface
- Feels like got an extra layer of skin
- Hard to pinch out pimples
- Looks darker than your original skin colour
- When the sun touches your skin, your skin turns red
- Feels like scratching your face
- etc etc. (find more resource in the internet)
So I be sharing with you guys on how to cure eczema or whatever :D (I won't show you my picture of when I haz ze eczema lol too embarrassing later viewers to my blog wont come back).
How long did my face starts to show improvement?
】 Surprisingly! (ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ it's only been less than a week! Ohsumm huh?! （＾∀＾）
First, make sure to know your own skin type (important!) and if you don't know your own skin type then good luck in finding out on your own. For my case I see the product cream/lotion/face wash/etc I use and if I use and suddenly it starts to irritate my skin I throw it straight away! because it's really bad to keep it if your type of skin is rejecting it. If to know whether or not it's good for you, obviously it wont irritate your skin la. Oh and my skin type is "Sensitive & Dry".
Second, maybe this is only good for the people who has the same skin type as mine but you could try if you want but if it doesn't show any improving result by the next few days then I'm sorry in advance. So anyway, buy "VASELINE" . You can find this product at a local store such as Guardian, Watson or any normal shop if they sell any. I apply Vaseline on my skin because since my skin is dry I need something to moisture it. So after washing your face with the right face wash (for me I use Apricot Scrub Gentle for Sensitive Skin, bought this at Jaya 33, Petaling Jaya).
】After a shower use tissue to pat your face until dry and if you don't like using tissue make sure to use a clean towel and use the same technique by patting your face gently. For me I use tissue, it's more cleaner and you can throw it afterwards. I buy everything in Guardian because I trust the place more.
】So after you apply the Vaseline on your Face. Don't care if you see the picture to apply on your mouth, arm or whatever. Just apply it, your face is still a skin. lol! after applying on the areas you think that feels rough then you wait for a few second or minutes. Make sure to put a lot until you feel your face all slimy and stuff.
】Don't wash it off. Instead you use a cotton wool and wipe off the Vaseline and make sure you scratch your face (yes you heard me) then look at your cotton wool, you will see your dead skin/dirt been peeled off. So do this until you satisfied but take note that not all of the area of your skin will going to be peel off easily in a day, remember that. That's why it will only be okay for like a few days or after a week if you keep using my method. Then you feel like your face will get less tighter than before.
】Almost forgot after washing off your Vaseline and pat it dry. Spray using this Orange Blossom & White Lotus Moisture Mist from My Beauty Diary. Also can be found at Guardian.
Third, drink a lot of water in a day. Force yourself even if you hate water. Always use an umbrella if your going out. Do not let your skin be near the sunlight if your still having the problem. Make sure to wipe of your sweat too. Sweat is like... dirty. Don't be too stress too it also can cause bad to your skin like example breakouts. Lol. That's kinda it . . you could still find more in the internet if you feel your not that satisfied.
FYI, Just to remind you all I don't have the flawless skin but choosing the right foundation/concealer for you help sometimes to cover the imperfection XD but I only try to avoid this kind of problems. :)
Good luck. :3
