Over the last weekend I did something that I’ve never done before: I went to Sephora, completely makeup-free. Yea, I know, not really a big deal. Well, it is if you’re me and you’ve been struggling with skin problems your entire life. Having clear skin feels amazing, but in a very strange way I feel like I’m losing a part of my identity. Just the other day, as I was washing my face, I noticed a tiniest breakout on my chin…
