Skin status: meh

It’s been over two months since I’ve updated you on the state of my face! How ever have you survived?

Guys, June was awesome. AMAZING. Most people I spoke to said it would take a good three or four months for the prescription to REALLY get things sorted out. For me, it took a little over four, but it was worth the wait. I went about six weeks with absolutely issues. As those of you who have had or currently have skin issues, six weeks is an incredible amount of time to have not one single blemish.

And then my uterus had to go and screw everything up.

Without going into too much detail, I had some cyst action happening all up in my business for a little while there. Luckily, this cyst action didn’t require anything particularly invasive and everything is a-ok, but it was decided to crank my birth control up a notch because I have what I guess you could call “enthusiastic” ovaries. I’m not sure what that means either, but I’m going with it.

While birth control pills are actually known to help control acne, there can be an adjustment period. I happen to be right in the middle of one. But I will not be disheartened! If clear skin can happen once, it can happen again. I WILL PREVAIL.

Until then, however, I am very thankful for L’Oreal’s Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Concealer. That junx covers up anything. Trust.
