Genuinely cannot remember the last time my skin felt this dull. Not dry exactly, just... flat. Like it's just existing rather than doing anything. I'…
autumn is already attacking my skin
The heating came on at school last week and honestly my face felt it immediately. That dry, tight feeling by 3pm. Horrible. I basically just swap out…
my skin has clearly not read the calendar

my skin does not like October apparently
Three weeks into autumn and my face has decided to be dry and oily at the same time. I mean. How. Basically swapped out my lighter summer moisturiser…
right, September skin is not the same skin

skin's already panicking and it's barely October

Right so I've been obsessing over moisturising my face all season but somehow forgot my hands exist until they started cracking around the knuckles. C…
my skin in September is basically a different person
Honestly I don't know why it still catches me off guard every year. Summer skin and autumn skin are just... not the same skin. Mine goes from oily-and…
my skin always throws a tantrum at this exact point in the year
Every single end of August my skin just... revolts. Not in a dramatic breakout way, more like it gets confused. Still a bit oily in the T-zone from su…
ok the one thing I always underestimate this time of year
Honestly I say this every autumn and then completely ignore it until my face starts feeling like paper — slow down the exfoliation. Like properly slow…
