Ailna's Foundation-free story

Hi Haley, 


Here is my full story:

One and a half years ago, I started to get acnes and pimples. During that period, I didn't pay attention to what I ate and what cosmetic products I should use. Complicated skincare routine and amounts of high-sugar and high-protein diet were ruining my face, as well as my body. At first, I didn't have any correct ideas on what was going on. I even used more and more skincare products to save my face. And to cover those pimples, I used thick foundation to fake a "perfect" skin look. But situation actually went worse and worse.


After getting inspired by some beauty YouTubers, I decided to quit using foundation. In the beginning, I had not done any makeup for 1 month. My skin got a good rest and no more new acnes popped up since then. For now, I only use concealer to hide my severe dark eye circles. Even though there are a few acne scars existing on my face, I don’t cover them. Now I feel more confident without putting foundation on. What foundation-free changed is not only my skin look but also my mentality.


In terms of the skincare routine, I began to simply use toner, eye cream and emulsion, and the only function of these products is moisturising. I also changed my diet habits: when I can't help drinking bubble milk tea, I would order a no-sugar one; I stopped eating sashimi and any other high-protein foods. 


Now my face is less likely to break out even if sometimes it needs to adapt to a new “environment” (new living places, new products ,etc.).

Thanks for listening to my story.
