A day when I spent an unusually long time looking in the mirror
It was a day when I spent an unusually long time looking in the mirror. After washing my face in the morning and checking my skin, I felt inexplicably happy to see that my skin texture felt much calmer than before. Recently, my skin condition has been inconsistent, but today, overall, there was less redness, and my skin tone looked much more even. I felt the biggest difference, especially when applying makeup. In the past, there were always areas where my base makeup would cake, but today, I was satisfied because it felt like it adhered much more naturally. I realized that this is what it feels like for the skin to be in a comfortable state.
Lately, I have been paying a little more attention to my skincare. I am trying to drink water more frequently and cut down on my habit of eating late-night snacks. In the past, I used to get very stressed whenever my skin became even slightly sensitive, but now I try not to be too swayed by a day or two of it. This is because I am increasingly realizing that consistent care is ultimately the most important thing for skin. In particular, since I can definitely feel a difference in my skin condition the next day after getting enough sleep, I am trying to maintain a sleep pattern as regular as possible.
Today, I felt like my skin looked exceptionally healthy, so I took a few selfies just for fun. It isn't a dramatic change, but I found the process of my skin stabilizing itself satisfying. In the past, I used to get easily sensitive to even the slightest blemish, but now I feel like I've learned to view my skin's natural progression with a bit more ease. I want to continue taking care of my skin consistently without rushing, so that I can maintain this good skin condition for a long time.
