Tips and tricks to be confident in your own skin
By: Carolina Malis
We live in an internet-ruled, where social media and our phone take a toll on our everyday life decision, and while some great things have come out thanks to the power social media platforms can offer individuals, it has also distorted the real world with images of perfect bodies, faces, skin, and lifestyles, so sometimes it can be hard to feel confident about what you have or how you look in comparison to social media stars.Being confident in our own skin can be hard at times, especially when we have access to so many other people we can compare ourselves with. When talking skincare, real skin has been threatened by multiple kinds of filters, photoshopped pictures, and fake skin-perfection goals, but skin is not perfect, is not poreless, and is not spotless. Our skin is different from everyone else’s, meaning no one but you knows what it truly needs to be healthy, or why it’s struggling.But no matter your skin’s condition, there are some little steps you can take in order to start building up your own shield in order to be comfortable and in charge of how you see yourself, and how to appreciate the skin you’re in.

Unfollow people who make you feel bad about your skin
We all follow hundreds of people that live the lives we want to live, wear the clothes we want to wear or have the complexion we want to have, but there’s a line where seeing these people and their lives regularly only reminds us of that unattainable goal, so we end up feeling worse about ourselves than we already did. If that’s your case, consider muting or unfollowing these people for a couple of days, weeks, or even months in order to not compare your skin with theirs on a regular basis.
Healthy doesn’t mean perfect
