I'm scared to look in the mirror these days, so I'm going to start taking care of my skin.

I looked in the elevator mirror on my way home from work today and was truly shocked. Under the fluorescent lights, I looked much more tired and sallow than I'd expected. There was a thin layer of makeup around my mouth, and my complexion looked gloomy overall. I just stood there for a while, stunned. Before, even a cursory wash seemed to revitalize my complexion, but now I feel like I need to start taking serious care of my skin.

Maybe it's because of the seasonal change, but my skin is particularly dry, and I feel like my skin barrier has collapsed. I thought I was meticulous about my home care, but it seems like simply applying a generous amount of moisturizing cream isn't enough. I'm curious if anyone has any special skincare tips for their tired faces after work. Now, I want to find a systematic skin care routine that's perfect for my skin type, rather than simply buying trendy products.

The sudden chill in the weather may have contributed to my poor condition, but I think I need to take care of it before it's too late. How do you regain your vitality? Could you share any recommended products or habits you have?
