For me, this is what "a day in the life of an acne sufferer feels like"

YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING. HOPE THAT PIMPLES THE OTHER DAY DRIED UP. LOOK INTO THE MIRROR & YOU EXAMINE YOUR FACE.SEE OTHER PIMPLES STARTING TO HEAL BUT SAW NEW PIMPLES APPEARED OVERNIGHT. FEELS DEPRESSED AND FRUSTRATED.

YOU NEED TO DO YOUR SKINCARE THEREFORE EVEN DEPRESSED PROCEED TO WASHING YOUR FACE WITH DESIRED CLEANSER. WAITS FOR FEW MINUTES TILL YOUR FACE DRIES. APPLIES TONER/ASTRINGENT. WAITS ANOTHER MINUTE FOR TONER TO BE ABSORBED. APPLIES SPOT TREATMENT OR IF NOT, MOISTURIZER. SINCE IT'S MORNING IT'S ADVISED TO APPLY SUNSCREEN SO THERE YOU GO, YOU APPLY YOUR SUNSCREEN BEFORE BEING "EXPOSED TO THE SUN".

WHEN YOU GO OUT AND SEE PEOPLE AROUND YOU AND VERY FEW (PEOPLE CLOSE TO YOU, FRIENDS OR WHAT) WOULD TELL YOU THAT YOU HAVE "WHITE THING ALL OVER YOUR FACE" (THEY WERE REFERRING TO THE SUNSCREEN WHICH IS VERY HARD TO REMOVE BY THE WAY XD.) THEN YOU CONTINUE WHAT YOU USUALLY NEED TO DO EITHER TO STUDY OR TO WORK. YOU GET THIS FEELING AS THE DAY CONTINUES OF YOUR FACE MAYBE BEING DRY OR OILY ONCE AGAIN. AND WHEN YOU ALSO GET THAT FEELING OF THE NEW PIMPLE STINGING LIKE A BEE WHEN YOU ACCIDENTALLY TOUCHED IT OR THE FEELING LIKE IT IS GROWING OR BECOMING BIGGER (IF YOU GET THAT FEELING, I DO, MOST OF THE TIME) YOU ARE TEMPTED TO LOOK INTO THE MIRROR AND SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING. SOMETIMES YOU WOULD HEAR YOUR FRIENDS/ OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT "A PIMPLE" THAT THEY JUST HAD AND FEELING LIKE HELL AND IN YOUR MIND YOU JUST WANT TO PUNCH THESE PEOPLE FOR OVER ACTING AND BEING SO VAIN.

EVERYDAY YOU LOOK ON OTHER PEOPLE'S FACES AND SEE HOW SMOOTH, CLEAR, AND PERFECT THEIR SKIN IS. YOU FEEL REALLY DEPRESSED AND INSECURE ABOUT THE WAY YOU LOOK. THEN YOU WOULD FEEL LIKE HIDING YOURSELF SO THAT OTHERS WONT SEE YOUR FACE.

WHEN YOU ARRIVE FROM SCHOOL/WORK, SOMETIMES YOU JUST FEEL VERY TIRED TO EVEN WASH YOUR FACE BUT AS A RITUAL YOU FEEL LIKE IT IS NOT OKAY TO SKIP THE " 2 TIMES A DAY" WASHING OF YOUR FACE SO EVEN IF YOU REALLY ARE SLEEPY AND YOUR EYES ARE CONSTANTLY CLOSING YOU STILL CONTINUE WITH YOUR SKINCARE. CLEANSE.TONE.SPOT TREAT. MOISTURE. THEN EXFOLIATE ONCE WEEK. YOU CONTINUE THIS DAY TO DAY PROCESS HOPING THAT THE TIME WOULD COME FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS TO PAY OFF.
