With and without makeup

Beware: pictures of me without makeup.
WARNING!
CAUTION!
I'm done warning you. Now you're on your own.



Since the beginning of December, my face has been having bad breakouts. I’m not sure why, because I had been using the same natural, locally made face wash from Faerhaven, coconut oil moisturizer, and makeup products, but I had to figure something out. I went out and bought green and tan concealer. Green concealer, I thought, was stranger. Green? Really? Apparently it blocks out red marks, and my face was full of red marks. As you can see, it still is. I’m doing a pretty good job of covering it up, and my face has stopped breaking out so much. Before December, I didn’t have many problems with my face unless I slept with my makeup on. I had old red marks from acne scars but I would get zits maybe once every week or two. Once December hit, they were all over my cheeks and jawbone. I figured my breakouts were from stress because between November and December I had mad projects, tests, quizzes, exams, all lined up one after another nonstop. I ran out of coconut oil, and it’s kind of expensive, so I decided to try olive oil instead. I found out on Pinterest that you can use it as a moisturizer, too. So I guess it’s been about a month now, maybe more, and I’ve been using olive oil as a moisturizer after I wash my face at night. So, as you can see, I do a good job of hiding my nasty red marks/scars and I’m not hiding it from anyone. Obviously, I wear makeup. It’s no secret. Here are the before and after pictures of me with and without makeup.







Good luck!
