eczema and discoloration

You need medication for hyperpigmentation, acid peels are also an option but way too much for skin thats most likely as enflamed and sensitive as yours. I would take very mild skin products ofr hyperpigmentation and let time do its work.

I'm an aveda esthetician so I'm most versed in our shyt and yeah we have a line for discoloration called enbrightment. It works but takes 4-6. Not very cheap tbh (like 150 for full line) but it actually works and ingredients are like 99% natty or some shyt. The big thing with skin care is to find a routine and stick with it. You switch around too much youll end up throwing your skin balance off and shyt looking worse. I would def suggest that line though I use it and its keen. You have oily or dry skin?

I'll look it up but seems too expensive for me. I have aggressively dry skin, if it gets wet, my eczema flares up and I have to scrub the dead skin off and moisturize

I understand but can't really put a price on great skin tbh You don't have to cop the whole line, its entirely possible a product or two will alleviate your issues. Its only guaranteed to "work" if the whole line is copped. I mix and match shyt all the time and have great skin so its up to you. I would def go to a salon and get a facial and consultation (any salon thats worth shyt will do this) and get some irl help as well.

I'll see what else is out there for you tho

Median income for an esti is like 35-40k. I could move to somewhere like seattle and avg 55k. work is 1/4 as hard as cosmo, and you get paid more. I also thought it would be dope to be around gorgeous women all day but thats a tossup since these bytches are more pretentious than any hipster I've ever met in my life. I sit in class wishes death on this lil greek heaux whose "whole life is skin care" but yet asks how to cure her bytch ass boyfriends bacne 5 times

eczema and discoloration

are you the DIY type? you can make your own eczema ointment/oil/cream to try in lieu of otc stuff that may or may not help you. I'm suggesting trying 100% natural and chem free so research the properties of the following:


oils/butters to consider:

organic virgin coconut oil, organic raw shea butter, organic raw cocoa butter

herbs to consider:

chamomile, burdock, chickweed, aloe vera, neem, calendula, turmeric, borage (seeds and/or flowers), lavender, comfrey, witch hazel, marshmallow, nettles

its as easy as finding a few of these herbs locally and letting them steep or infuse in some kind of gentle carrier oil (grapeseed is one of my faves but you can mix n match as you see fit)...you can then apply it topically like a herb packed moisturizer.
if you feeling fancy you can add a wax of some sort and a natural butter (shea, kokum, cocoa) then you can turn it into a salve or balm.

Those products are really good for slick back buns especially the Coconut/Hibiscus Shine Mist and the Gel.
