Real Talk about My Face

Alright everyone. This is what my face looks like with no makeup, bangs pulled back, and eyes closed.

What advice do you have for the acne? Is this bad enough for accutane? What factors do I need to weigh against each other? I eat vegan (so at least no dairy hormones), but desu not the healthiest of vegan diets. I also don't shower every day. Would showering more get rid of it?

Also, I was wondering if the unevenness in the eye/eyebrow area seems bad to you guys. I've been (strangely enough) complimented on my facial symmetry before, but to me, the asymmetries sometimes really stand out and even impact the way I see myself. (For some examples, my right eye and eyebrow are set a bit higher in my face than their left counterparts.)

I was additionally wondering if you guys think the mole on my upper lip looks bad. I tried to get it removed, but it appears to (mostly, at least) still be there or have regrown.

You can give opinions on other stuff, too, and my overall appearance. I already plan to lose weight, even though I'm not overweight. (I just seem to disproportionately store fat in my facial area.)

Thank you!

I would kiss you

Thank you. Also, nice trips.

However, this doesn't say much unless I know if you see most young women this way. Like, if you'd kiss almost anyone, it's not really a compliment anymore. (Not implying you're that way; I just don't know.)

There's no problem with your eyebrows. Also mole on the upper lip doesn't look bad. Overall you have a very beautiful face.

Get a lip lift, go to the gym and get off my website roastie

I'm not sure what to tell you when it comes to the acne, mine luckily just went away as I got older (am 21 now)
Still got a ton of bacne but ayyy its not visible right? Besides washing your face more and maybe using a mint mask, might just go with age.
But anyway, despite the acne, I think youre a cute. I'd date you. And that mole shouldn't even be on your mind, really, if you didnt point it out I probably wouldnt have noticed it. You over think the minor flaws you have.

No sugar you stupid attention whore. No milk is good. Muh symetry, stfu. Normal face, some pimples. You are female, guess what your cycle will always give you acneface to some degree because your hormone Cocktail changes regularly. How in the fuck do people do not know and understand the biology of their own fucking body. I hate you retards

I fixed my acne/other face shit like this.
Put alot of layers and run just run, you will sweat all the poopoo out of your system.
Movement ia life...

Hey first off I would try to contact you doctor to try doxy first as its way less intrusive in your life but if that didn't work I'm sure you would get accutane most likely 10 mg as they aren't that bad, as for your diet you would probably need some like iron supplements. I'm currently on 40 mg of accutane so ama

Aww thank you! It's so interesting how differently people see looks. Some people see me as like a 3 to 4 out of 10.

Wht would you say I should work on, though?

How much are lip lifts usually? Also I'm a bit worried about being judged about having had "work done" or that it'll make my face look fake.

I have a gym membership and run very occasionally. I just need to start working out much more often and maybe cur calories a bit.

Thank you! Part of the reason I think about my flaws a lot is that there are plenty of people who find me average or unattractive, and some people have told me (presumably after reading my description of my crush) that he's out of my league or unrealistic. He also doesn't follow me back on Instagram or Twitter :(. He does sometimes view my Snapchat stories and we're friends on Facebook, though.

Isn't Jow Forums glorious?

I should shower ASAP after finishing, though, right?

I also swim sometimes - one of my fave exercises. Does that help too?

Do you have Tricare? I'm wondering if insurance covers those things.

That's a face I would let drain my bank account. You're fine.

wash your face daily
eat real food
exercise
brows are fine, mole is irrelevent (to me at least)

Swimming in general is very beneficial
In a nutshell when you sweat alot all your sweat glances sweat.... So its being cleaned.
And of course you should shower.... You just pulled out all your icky from your pours.

See a dermatologist. Unlike this foreign basket weaving forum, they’ll actually know what will help your skin.

Im done with this teen bullshit site.

Fuck off with your social media crap, he does nit follow me boohoo. Grow up, crushes are for young teens. Having an actually writen out list of a dreamy bf is either for lil 12 year old girls or someone who is so far up their own ass and away from reality that they see fucking rainbows.

Stop eating sugar. Work out legit. Not that girly bs that at most harms your joints. Cut down the caffein because I know you fuckheads are Zombies who dont function without their sugar water "energy" drinks. Shitty food literally makes you dumb because you lack essential elements that your brain needs to function.

Back on topic. You aint fat. Just flabby and not toned. I can tell you are weak af even for a woman.

You're thinking WAY too much about appearance, suspiciously so.
It either a real insecurity or you just want attention. Either way, your appearance is fine, pretty average. Don't get too flattered by the lonely spergs here: how healthy (both physically and mentally) you are is the most important aspect.

In any case, the acne is slightly bad but that's because you're still young. Wash your sheets and pillow covers regularly, eat well, and use some topical ointment (accutane, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid) before you go to bed, and wash your face with warm water and soap after waking up.

Carefull how you wash it. The wrong soap and it gets worse real quick

Swim and sauna. Wont sweat that much in at most luke warm water.

>I also swim sometimes - one of my fave exercises. Does that help too?
The chlorine in pools is the WORST thing for your skin. It dries it out, irritates it, and makes it more susceptible to acne.

My teen acne got a lot better once I stopped swimming it every day.
Also, STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE. Not even to pop them. They're the WORST thing you can to yourself.

>That's a face I would let drain my bank account.
This is one of my favorite compliments I've ever gotten. Screenshotted.

>wash your face daily
I already do, generally. My facial skin is naturally oily.
>eat real food
What are some good vegan examples? Arguably my biggest dietary vice is oily, salty food. Should I cut down on those?
>exercise
I need to get on this more often.
>brows are fine
Thank you.
>mole is irrelevent (to me at least)
For some reason, I think it looks good on Marilyn Monroe, but I'm critical of my own. I think it may partially be due to color of it and location.
Thank you. Sounds good.

How expensive is that? Would talking to my general practitioner be enough? I have an appointment on the 29th to get an IUD, so maybe I could address it then.

>What advice do you have for the acne? Is this bad enough for accutane?
You don't have it that bad. I suppose regular skincare (cleaner + moisturizer) and good food will be enough. I found that stress and lack of sleep is also a factor in my case.
>Also, I was wondering if the unevenness in the eye/eyebrow area seems bad to you guys.
I don't know what you are talking about. I stared a bit and your brows look fine to me.
>I was additionally wondering if you guys think the mole on my upper lip looks bad.
Looks cute.

>How expensive is that? Would talking to my general practitioner be enough?
A family doctor is NOT a dermatologist. He/she'll just tell you what you find here: general advice. Dermatologists might or might not be covered by your insurance plan. If you live in Ameriburger land, make double sure since IUDs are covered but some dermatology treatments aren't (anything cosmetic, i.e. clearer skin).
Before anything, check that.

Also, try out non-prescription topical ointments before committing to the super expensive brand name shit. It's usually not worth the money.
A nightly wash with benzoyl peroxide, available at any pharmacy (look at the active ingredients on the back of a bottle/container), has worked for me since I turned 19 and I have never looked back.

>Grow up, crushes are for young teens. Having an actually writen out list of a dreamy bf is either for lil 12 year old girls or someone who is so far up their own ass and away from reality that they see fucking rainbows.
So you really think proper adults never get crushes?
>Cut down the caffein because I know you fuckheads are Zombies who dont function without their sugar water "energy" drinks.
Caffeine is not a major issue for me. Maybe 2 or so caffeinated coffees a week, probably tops.
>You aint fat. Just flabby and not toned. I can tell you are weak af even for a woman.
Idk how you can tell from a face shot, but you may be right.

>You're thinking WAY too much about appearance, suspiciously so.
>It either a real insecurity or you just want attention
Kinda both, honestly. I get insecure, and then seek validation and advice. I don't even know how many similar things I've posted on Jow Forums and reddit.
>It either a real insecurity or you just want attention. Either way, your appearance is fine, pretty average
This is kind of why, though. I don't want to be average or below, to the point where generally only "lonely spergs" find me beautiful.
>Wash your sheets and pillow covers regularly, eat well, and use some topical ointment (accutane, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid) before you go to bed, and wash your face with warm water and soap after waking up.
Thank you. Keeping a routine is tough for me, though.

>The chlorine in pools is the WORST thing for your skin. It dries it out, irritates it, and makes it more susceptible to acne.
>My teen acne got a lot better once I stopped swimming it every day.
Swimming is one of my fave ways to work out, though. :( It's almost full-body and I've read it can burn tons of calories. Is there any way to avoid the harmful effects?
>Also, STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE. Not even to pop them. They're the WORST thing you can to yourself.
Zits can be more uncomfortable when they're unpopped. What else can I do?

This is my bare face when i dont have any make ups or any face powder but i am so proud of my scars and acne marks on my face.Because of it,i attained my dreams and goals as a teacher and counselor and having a high demands when it comes in work.

Thank you. I will probably try addressing these before changing anything drastic.
>I don't know what you are talking about. I stared a bit and your brows look fine to me.
It's obvious to me, but I guess that's because I look at pics of myself a lot. What I see sometimes makes me feel awful.
>>I was additionally wondering if you guys think the mole on my upper lip looks bad.

Thanks! :)

A nightly wash with benzoyl peroxide, available at any pharmacy (look at the active ingredients on the back of a bottle/container), has worked for me since I turned 19 and I have never looked back.
I've been using an exfoliating wash with salicylic acid fairly often. Should I try the benzoyl peroxide instead, or perhaps in addition?

Sorry for not properly quoting the last part. My last question is the end of my response to you.

How did your skin issues help you in your career?

Just wash your face every after outdoor chores youv'e done.

I consider my skin issues as "pursuing" But for me,if accutane doesnt work.Just wash your face every after outdoor chores youv'e done.

I hardly ever do outdoor chores, except for walking the dog, but I still have acne.

Just sleep early in the evening( 8pm or 9 pm) and if you find any changes to your face,then continue that suggestion.

if your acne has lessen to that suggestion.

What do you eat? aspartame makes me break out.

>Just sleep early in the evening( 8pm or 9 pm) and if you find any changes to your face,then continue that suggestion.
Haha I usually go to sleep at 2 a.m. or later. How will changing that change my skin, though?

I eat vegan. That is pretty much my only restriction.

What is aspartame in? I think some diet sodas, right? I hardly ever drink those anymore, but I do sometimes drink regular soda.

>This is kind of why, though. I don't want to be average or below, to the point where generally only "lonely spergs" find me beautiful
Barring any make up or clearing your skin, the only way to 100% make yourself above average is by having a killer body, through diet and exercise.
Even butterfaces (which you aren't) can be incredibly sexy. Add a bit of makeup, your face, and that? Well, let's just say you can afford to be picky with your men because you will be very in demand.

Use your insecurity to its advantage and WORK FOR IT. Don't be lazy, don't procrastinate, be . Since you like swimming, Google some exercise routines and do them every time you go to the gym, in addition to regular cardio and moderate strength training.

There is no way to avoid the effect chlorine has on your body. I tried everything and it's just how the chemical works when it comes in contact with your skin.
To reduce its effects, shower IMMEDIATELY after a session and you should be fine. The exercise is worth the hassle.
>What else can I do?
Nothing. Leave them unpopped.
Let them pop naturally. It might be gross and uncomfortable, but it beats getting more acne.
If it's ingrown, go to a doctor to get it drained, since it's an abscess.

>Should I try the benzoyl peroxide instead, or perhaps in addition?
NO! Never stack topical treatments. Stick to one treatment at a time, since those chemicals are really harsh on your skin. Do switch it up and see if it works for you, after a week or two. You might not even need to go to the dermatologist.

Family doctors usually refer you to a specialist if you ask for something outside of their scope. Again, make sure you're insured for a dermatologist (probably not).

When you sleep late, you’ll notice that your skin actually secretes more sebum, and this probably explains why it results in new acne. Again, from what I’ve read, a lack of sleep will promote stress and that causes an increase in the substance cortisol in the body. Cortisol, in turn, causes the skin to secrete more sebum, which results in acne. Dr. Gil Yosipovich, professor of dermatology at Wake Forest University School of Medicine suggested that stress-related inflammation may be to blame for the breakouts. “Our research suggests that acne severity associated with stress may result from factors others than sebum quantity. It’s possible that inflammation may be involved.”
Another factor connecting sleep deprivation to acne is the increase insulin resistance, which can contribute to one being acne-prone according to this medical article on acne causes. This is because insulin resistance can increase glucose or sugar that is one of the major causes of acne.

Cut out some foods from your diet for a month and see if it gets better, if it does then try to single out the culprits. Getting tested for common allergies is also an option, most general practitioners should offer this. Check for mold in your house.

Sorry to the people I haven't responded to yet, but I think I'm going to sleep soon. I will respond if the thread is still alive when I wake up.

For acne it’s pretty simple but takes s lot of discipline. Don’t drink any soda or consume corn syrup of any kind or quantity. Sugar good, corn syrup bad. It’s good that you don’t consume dairy of any kind or quantity. And this might sound weird but don’t over wash your face, except for once in the morning or after you’ve been sweating or your face is otherwise dirty. If you’re just sitting in an office all day or walking around not doing anything physically demanding there’s no need to, it’s pointless.

And I know everybody has their weird fruit juice remedies but try s mixture of lemon and baking soda on the big troublesome ones. Leave it onfor say 30 minutes then rinse it off.

Upper lip looks fine.

Noticed you said your face is naturally oily. Contrary to popular belief there’s nothing wrong with that if it’s just in your genes. I knew a dude in high school we used to call the reflector cause he was dark skinned as shit and this dudes face was always the shiniest.

...anyway yeah that’s not bad. If you want to follow my diet I make a lunch box with 1 serving of almonds, peanuts, broccoli, a hard boiled egg, and some fruit like sliced apples, everyday. Then I’ll eat whatever other healthy choices I come by. It’s not s fun diet at all and it gets boring really fast but it’s good for you.

every time I see you posting

That is not true, that is my face.

What about it?
It’s not supposed to be a quirky username, it’s just so people have an idea of who’s on the other side of the screen. There’s a lot of young people on this board and I think that it helps for relatability.

To be honest, you look fine. When I look at your face, I don't really notice anything wrong with it. Sure you have some acne, but that goes away by washing your face and changing your pillowcase. Otherwise, you look fine and if I knew you irl I would probs ask you out.

Pretty average, nothing to note beyond a few skin blemishes, maybe your chin is odd, but it's probably because I'm thinking of chins from a man's perspective of them needing to be big square and sharp.
Eyebrows are always odd when you stare at them for too long, but I guess they might be on the longer side idk.

Overall yeah definitely pretty cute, but it's hard to say really when looks like you took a photo in a character creator scene in a game.

Apart from the obvious skin issues, you look pretty.

I think they were just saying seeing "black m22" makes them think of blink182.

You have Body Dysmoprhic Disorder, you should seek help

Didn't you post on soc before compliment fishing? Cringe

Oh, haha. That would be weird.

Acutane was one of the few good decisions I've made. Just go for it.

>How much are lip lifts usually
He's trolling you, you're fine. Gym is never a bad idea though.

Cmoon the best part is missing :your eyes!

You probably look good with make up, but who doesn't.
Pretty average looking to be honest.

Lemme suck the stress out your titties.

Good news. You're beautiful despite the acne.

Would you like to takr 3 dicks at the same time?

Well just to let you know OP you're not ugly and don't take this the wrong way but you look like someone I would date and I'm sure a lot of guys would also find attractive. If you have issues with your acne just be careful on the kinds of products you use some can burn your skin and make it red or peel. Your eyebrows look ok, I can see the one on your right looks like a bit is missing but I'm not someone that will make a big deal out of something like that and I'm sure guys won't either. Shape, form, and anything else I see is fine and a few pounds isn't something I'm going to lose my head over either. I think guys will only be bothered if you happen to be really overweight to the point it's unhealthy.

Tldr Don't worry about what you look like now, you're fine.

STOP WITH THESE FUCKING CAMWHORE THREADS

I think you look great.

exercise to sweating, and shower, drink lots of water. that routine should help dissipate oily skin, and so will age.

your overall appearance is not unappealing. Round faces tend to reveal pleasant smiles.

work on having a non-suck personality.

Use doctor bronners tea tree soap on your face in the morning and at night, don’t use anything else. If you need to moisturize, use a TINY ant of coconut oil. Use lukewarm water, not too hot or too cold, drink a lot of water, get a lot of sleep. Acne should go away. The mole is fine, and the asymmetry is too smal to be a big deal. Most people are uglier than you.

If you're not a poorfag, check out curology
It's the strongest stuff you can get that doesn't require an actual prescription

Yeah I think you are worrying about appearance too much. In regards to the acne I found a mild foaming cleanser to work fine when I had acne.

Sweating against acne? Do i have to exercise ir can I just go somrwhere hot

>This is one of my favorite compliments I've ever gotten. Screenshotted.
I'd legit let you findom me if I knew you irl

>alright everyone. This is what my face looks like with no makeup
So you're a beautiful young woman? I didn't read anything else you wrote, but I'm sure life is so hard for you sweetheart.

1) wash your face once a day with a bar of irish spring
2) do not ever touch your face

99% of disgusting red sores and acne is because of people not keeping their fucking hands off their faces

Would be your paypig/10

I read all this to agree with >20462856
do not touch your face. Instruct people to yell at you if you do. Wear gloves for a couple days. Keep your hands off. You're cute enough too.

...

Hey everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been responding like I said I would. Today hasn't been very good and I just didn't feel up to it. I have been reading responses, though, and I will read the ones after this one too (if there are any). I also may start replying again, idk.

so when are you making me your paypig?

Hi butiful. Send bobs and vegana pics plz. I hav cancer.

Do you ever think about sucking on ad ick while having one in your ass?

Skin ID worked for me

Don't know if they make it anymore

It's much less harsh then a Dermatologist

Your acne isn't that bad to warrant a trip to one.

A 40$ cream will do

desu hard to tell anything worthwhile without eyes open or a profile

This is me with different lighting and makeup. However I usually wear glasses during the day and don't have makeup, so this isn't what I normally look like.

I believe this was around New Year's Eve.

What's your body look like? That's pretty important to men too. You have a 6/10 face but if you have a nice body you'd be able to easily get the majority of men.

She ain't fat, sperg. It's what we've been saying all thread, that she's average.

If she wants to be more than that, she's going to have to work for it.
