Day 10

Day 10 is much like day 9 - the outbreak continues, and the symptoms worsen.
Today I noticed the spots on my chest got even worse - worse than they ever were before, which is quite something! I also have a lot of newer spots on my face, but nothing I'm not used to from years of acne. 

Spots on chest - Day 10


I did, however, notice very dry hands whilst at work. They felt no drier than usual, but it wasn't until I looked down at them that I realised how bad they were! 

Dry skin on my hands.

I used Clinique Deep Comfort hand cream, but I do think I need to start carrying around the Elizabeth Arden 8-hour hand cream I've been saving. 

It's very strange though, I was talking to my friend about it and said how its almost like my skin is having a conflict with itself - it is somehow managing to be both extremely dry and oily at the same time. She explained that your skin is trying to produce more oil to make up for the extreme dryness, which makes sense. But it's still weird having both oily patches and dry skin that is so tight you can barely smile! 


Anyway, time for dinner! 
Keep the spot-free faith! :)
