Am I the only one whose skin is a mess in this weather? Today's Skin Diary

Maybe it's because the weather has gotten so hot so suddenly lately, but my face is in terrible condition. I woke up this morning and was truly shocked when I looked in the mirror. My nose and T-zone are super oily and shiny, while my cheeks are so dry that they're flaking off like dead skin cells. It’s a total disaster.

On top of that, when I washed my face and applied my basic skincare products, I felt a slight stinging sensation even though they were the ones I usually use. I suddenly got scared, wondering if my skin barrier has completely collapsed. It’s upsetting that my skin condition has hit rock bottom right at the start of June, and I feel at a loss as to how to manage it. Tonight, I’m definitely going to drink plenty of water and just apply a generous amount of mild moisturizing cream before going to sleep.

I am currently participating in the Creation Fairy Challenge in the Maypure community, so I am writing this post to record my skin condition every day. I am curious how others are taking care of their skin during this transitional season or early summer weather. If anyone else has suddenly had a breakout like me, please share some words of comfort in the comments.
