I got an Aqua Peel after work yesterday, and I was shocked by the amount of sebum I have.
The blackheads on my nose were so bumpy and dark that they couldn't even be covered up with makeup, so I hurriedly booked an appointment yesterday and went to get an Aqua Peel on my way home from work. The esthetician used a machine to thoroughly suck out the contents of my pores, and I was truly horrified when I saw the clumps of sebum and dead skin cells floating around in the machine's container after it was over...
I was so embarrassed I wanted to hide in a mouse hole lol. It felt a bit like a mini vacuum cleaner sucking my face, so it was slightly irritating, but after it was over, I applied a soothing pack and then a modeling pack, and when I looked in the mirror, my nose was literally sparkling. When I touched it, all the rough bumps were gone, and it felt completely soft and smooth! I finally deeply understand why everyone goes to get their pores cleaned regularly. For the time being, I'm not going to use nose packs at home; I'm just going to quietly make sure to check in at the dermatologist.
