My skin condition today...

Even though I knew I shouldn't eat spicy and salty food, I couldn't resist the temptation last night and ate tteokbokki before going to sleep, so I was truly horrified when I looked in the mirror this morning.

Leaving aside how swollen my face was, three small, red blemishes suddenly popped up around my mouth and chin. Usually, when my stomach isn't feeling well, the signs appear immediately in my chin area.

It seems my skin is really angry because I ate something too spicy yesterday.

I applied an ice pack this morning to just slightly reduce the swelling as a quick fix, but the heat sensation inside my mask hasn't gone away all day, making it so stifling. I'm definitely going to eat a salad for dinner tonight, put on a gentle soothing pack, and reflect on my actions.

I know in my head that skin condition is directly linked to what you eat, but it is really hard to put into practice. Everyone, please be careful with late-night snacks.
