Hiya girlies!
Today I’d love for us to share the little tips and tricks that you’re proud of, things that help you feel like the best version of you! It could be about anything, makeup, hair, hair removal, voice, mannerisms, diet, exercise, fashion, whatever you learned that had a positive impact on your life that could help another girlie learning who she wants to be!
Something I’ve been particularly enjoying recently is finding ladies I particularly admire in media and copying the things they say, trying to match their intonation and expression. I know it’s not an original idea but it can be super fun and very satisfying when you get it right! :3
I’m curious about the acne treatment. My instinct has always been moisturize last.
I think the concern really is that you don’t want your skin to dry up in the area where you’re applying the acne treatment. It will depend on your skin type and whether your skin tends towards oily or dry, but in my case if I put my moisturizer on top then there’s already a significant barrier to my pores in the form of the acne treatment, kinda blocking it from fully moisturizing my skin in that area. Whereas, when I apply the acne treatment on top, the benzoyl peroxide is still effective at breaking down the acne causing bacteria without drying out your skin as much? I can only apply it once a day. If I do it twice, my skin dries out. For the occasional white heads I get, putting it on last has been quite effective.
