Skincare is one of those things I always feel like I should be better at (and that I’m failing as a girl because of it somehow). I’m lucky as my skin is fine really (I drink a lot of water) so I’ve never really done anything. Selfcare is something I struggle with generally so never found it worth the effort.

I’m thinking as I enter my thirties though I should. Just had a sheetmask and enjoyed it but I have no idea where to start generally in terms of it.

What’s your skincare routine? Is it worth the effort/cost?

    I love the idea of having a routine in a way, think the act of going through it is the self care aspect I would like moreso than the result if that makes sense? Feel like it would help me sleep better too as it’s a way of winding down for the evening

    At the same time though when I’m having a depression relapse even remembering to brush my teeth can be hard, let alone anything else.

    Can definitely see how people get into it though

    The pumpkin thing looks cool! I have something similar that was given to me years ago that I’ve not used. I think I would probably forget to wash it off in the morning

      The process of it can totally be self care. I used to love the Pumpkin Sleeping Pack too. A sleeping pack/mask can be great, particularly one that feels substantial on. Products with great sensorial aspects can be lovely to use.
