“When you’re in the thick of it, TAKE THE DAMN PHOTO!!⁠ ⁠ Looking back, I wish I had the courage to take more photos of my skin when it was purging. BUT being in the thick of it, the last thing I wanted was my camera roll filled with pictures that made me so self-conscious. But LISTEN HERE:⁠ ⁠ You are your worst critic, so even when you’re skin begins to heal you will be so hard on yourself, question your progress, and want to give up.⁠ ⁠ BUT THEN you’ll look back at how far you’ve come and realize, holy 💩 it’s working!!⁠ ⁠ I’m human and still find myself falling back into that mindset when a breakout appears on my face. BUT THEN I look at my progress photos and think damnnnnn girl, look at what your skin used to look like compared to now.”⁠ ⁠ So, from one acne warrior to another…when you feel so cringe, can’t stand the thought of taking a photo, think about how one day you will have these photos to look BACK on and recognize you healed your freaking acne!⁠ ⁠ Take the damn picture.” ⁠ ⁠ - #REPOST from @bewellwithcandice because this is important and we couldn't agree more 👏👏
