THINGS I WOULD TELL MY YOUNGER SELF

🌞 Always wear SPF… UV rays are harmful even when the sun isn’t out. Prevention is better than cure.

🧴To treat skin, more often that not we need to be gentle with it, as using harsh products too often can make skin conditions worse.

👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽 Always, always talk to yourself like you would your best friend. The way we speak to ourself matters & research suggests the more self-compassion we have, the easier it is to cope with stress.

🫣 Skin picking (also known as Dermatillomania) is very common and is thought to effect 1 in 20 people… it’s definitely not weird & is often linked to stress & anxiety.

💦 Get a hydrating serum! They can help to soothe, protect, hydrate & generally keep the skin healthy… I can help to find the right one for you.

💚 Be kind to yourself & your skin. You’re doing your best & you are great.
