Expectation vs Reality Skin Edition: So what does 40 year old skin actually look like anyways? In a world of filters and fillers its hard to understand what a realistic approach to skincare would look like. There are pores, fine lines, signs of sun damage from years of love the sun and also dark circles from sleepless nights. Which absolutely normal. We all do our best to take care of our skin. But also know there may be seasons when skincare takes a back seat in this journey we call life and THAT’S okay too. I literally washed my face with body wash for like 4 years straight, because I was tired and too lazy to add a regimen to my life. And now, I’m finally taking the time to try and reverse the damage that’s been done and also except my skin for what it is, unfiltered real skin. I was so drawn to intentional skincare there is a process to it. It slows you down long enough to appreciate your skin for what is is and where it’s gotten you. Never again will I be ashamed of showing real skin and showing you real things I am doing to help keep it as healthy as possible moving into this second season of life. Remember, we are all human. And most of the time, there is another version of us we chose not to show on social media. But as your Esthetician and friend, I want to help break the cycle of “Perfectionism” in this industry. You are enough and whole, as is. Xoxo Kimber
