A sad record of my skin condition today

I've been a bit self-conscious about the area under my nose since the day before yesterday.

But I had a lot to do and I was tired, so I just let it slide. Sad premonitions are never wrong, are they? I got a pimple under my nose.

I applied some tea tree oil with a cotton swab as a quick fix, but ugh... since I didn't treat it sooner, it looks like it's going to last a while. It's really hard and bothersome. If it weren't for my personality, I'd just want to squeeze it all out, but I'm holding back.

It’s tricky to apply patches under the nose because they keep falling off, so it was pointless to even put them on. Thanks to the under-nose patch, I realized once again just how much we use the skin around our noses in our daily lives.

If a cyst had burst, I could at least apply a regenerating cream to solve the problem, but since that isn't the case, it seems like the only option right now is washing with a mildly acidic cleansing foam, applying a soothing serum and cream, and dabbing on some tea tree oil.

Oh! I heard you should never squeeze a pimple under your nose. I heard that the blood vessels around the nose are connected to the brain, so a bacterial infection can be dangerous. I hope my pimple pops on its own quickly.
