Why I FUCKING LOVE the signs
not to sound dramatic but the scholastic book fair in elementary school is the most pure and genuinely happy place i’ve ever experienced in my life
What just happened?
the worst thing about speaking two languages is trying to use an expression from one language that fits perfectly into your conversation but the other person won’t get it
i dont speak two languages but i speak fandom so i sort of get this
things u need to stop putting on your face
- lemons
- citrus in general
- coconut oil
- vaseline
- baby oil on your eyes
- sugar
- baking soda
- toothpaste
- essential oils without diluting it with a carrier oil
- white vinegar
- st ives apricot scrubs
- aluminum powder in highly pigmented eyeshadows (nars and urban decay)
- sunscreens w/ vitamin A in them
a breakdown of y u shouldn’t put these things on your face for saaaaaaaaaas: • citrus on ya face can cause a phototoxic reaction called phytophotodermatitis
• coconut oil is comedogenic and will clog yr pores
• vaseline is horrible for the environment and doesnt actually moisturize, and can in fact trap toxins under the skin + slow cellular regeneration
• baby oil is similar to vaseline in its defects
• sugar particles are too large and if u use them to exfoliate yr face they create tiny lacerations
• using baking soda to exfoliate will fuck up the ph balance of your skin seriously who the fuck thought this was a good idea
• toothpaste doesnt cause any harm as far as i know but it doesnt actually help w acne either. use a spot treatment or diluted tea tree oil
• notice how i said diluted tea tree oil? thats bc if u use essential oils undiluted u could potentially irritate your skin even further. if u have sensitive skin, stick w a spot treatment
• white vinegar, again u will fuck up the ph balance of your face
• st ives apricot scrubs are terrible for your skin they have shit ingredients and the particles are too big D O N O T
• aluminum powder is linked to increased risk of cancer and many other health concerns and since the particles are so fine its easily absorbed into the bloodstream
• vitamin a actually increases photosensitivity and additionally breaks down in sunlight and forms free radicals and it could POSSIBLY have a link to an increased risk of cancer
in general you should just avoid diy skincare at all costs but like skincare products can also be harmful/ineffective. here’s a list of ingredients to look out for. for those on a budget here is a whole tag of drugstore skincare products. (and if u have a little more to spend lush has some great skin products)
just remember that u only have one face and its worth more than diy “skincare” that could potentially fuck u up for life
this has been a skincare psa thank u
ive said this before but creating your own reality is really the best art you can ever make. creating worlds. creating the person you want to be and the life you want to live. im the biggest advocate of thought manifestation
