My Skin Journey

[@OhMother]

This has to be the most vulnerable post I’ve ever shared. My skin has to be the most sensitive topic I can ever talk about. My skin has been one of the main reasons I’ve cried myself to sleep, the thing that traumatized me the most in all of grade school and beyond, and why I use makeup as a crutch. I have tried EVERYTHING. Accutane, antibiotics, birth controls, cut out dairy, drank a gallon of water daily, exercised, used every over the counter and doctor prescribed creams, got blood work, purchased every machine possible…..nothing worked. I truly felt like I was a loss cause and I’d have to deal with this for the rest of my life. Last month during another flair up I decided to do some research one more time. Every dermatologist gave me the same routine and medicine as the last. There has to be more. The creams and pills are not working. Something inside of me is not right and I needed to find a dermatologist who would take their time with me. One who saw me as a person and not a number. Last month I found Amy Black, the owner of @radiancederm. She focuses on healing from within. Finding what is going on inside that is effecting the outside so much. We sat down for over an hour and had the most in depth consultation I’ve ever had with a dermatologist. My journey will be long. But for the first time in a long time I’m excited for my skin and motivated to work hard on it. I will be documenting my journey on my KZbin channel so if you haven’t already, make sure to subscribe to see my skin journey. My hope is to help other moms and women who are in my shoes. . . . #skin #comfortableinmyskin #beauty #skinroutine #skincare #skincareroutine #momskincare #acne #adultacne #pcos #hormones #skinjourney #honestmom #honestmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodjourney #vulnerability #bekindtoyourself #confidence #selfconfidence
