    i broke out with heavy acne when i started seeing this one guy for the past year......we broke up and my skin cleared. i genuinely believe an exchange of energies/hormones even have something to do with it

      I'm not sure about the dynamics of your relationship but I know stress also absolutely plays a part in developing acne and can effect hormones. Since letting go of toxic relationships, my acne definitely decreased.

      lmao my ex broke out a lot when we were dating and he never has acne
      but he was the one that was crazy, he was always questioning my motives and asking me to rate boys that i dated before.
      oh gosh. it was a nightmarr

      marina alyssa this comment is soo POWERFUL...with my ex I never felt beautiful...always wore makeup....as soon as we broke up I stared checking myself out in the mirror like “DAMN IM FINE” love my skin with no makeup now...GIRL we really dodged a bullet with that one 😅

      Many other youtubers are saying lifestyle is the most important factor, too. Also, for a lot of people, part of the reason they are not able to treat acne more efficiently actually is that they are using the wrong products, or over cleansing, etc. For skin care specialists and dermatologists, it’s kind of their job to talk about products and make sure you don’t pick the wrong ones for your skin.

    Acne is such an emotionally draining process. I had severe acne since I was 15 until my 19 years. As you said, my skin is far from the social idea of "perfection" but I'm fine and ok with it and I love it now. It's also a self love and self understanding journey. Even though the face has such an important meaning for us socially and personally, it's not what we *are*.
    I can't say you are going to have clear skin one day because it works out differently for everyone however, here are some advices I have for u guys:
    1. Try to detach yourself from the idea of: "if I have clear skin I'll be happier". Loving yourself just the way you look on the outside is a priority and the first step.
    2. Drink water and exercise without any make up on!
    3. Clean your skin twice a day.
    4. Try to find a good moisturizer. (Even if you have combo skin or greasy skin).
    5. Don't touch your pimples! Let them be.
    6. Don't over do tonics or scrubs.
    7. Try to avoid mirrors at first. You need to learn how to see your reflection without judging or wanting to touch your scaring/pimples.
    8. Try other ways of loving yourself that doesn't equal to "checking yourself out at the mirror". Positive mediation is a great way to do so.
    9. Talk about your struggles with acne openly.
    10. Trust your body and sleep!

      Cristina Barquero-Mora don’t use a physical exfoliant , use a chemical exfoliant it’s way better for the skin (bha, aha,pha) there is one for every skin concern :) even dry skin. Don’t use soap on your skin, the ph level isn’t good for the skin. Use a ph mild cleanser (example: cosrx ph cleanser)

      I don’t know why I cried when I read this comment. I went from perfectly clear skin all my life to acne struggles in the past 2 years that came at a time of deep depression, self-hatred, and an abusive relationship. I know how much of a lesson this has been, and I know it’s brought me deeper within 💛

    I will probably always have acne. Started when i was 12 years old, and now I’m 22. I eat a vegan diet, I work out, and take good care of my skin... but at this point i have just accepted that it’s a part of me. It dosen’t make me depressed anymore. No matter what you’re skin looks like it shouldn’t bring you down 💚🌿

    I always had a hard time watching your videos, I had so many negative thoughts about you and myself, but somehow I still had to watch your videos. You are so acceptive and positive and I’m not there yet, and I realise now that that is what is bothering me. It has nothing to do with you. Keep shining your light, you inspire me!

    15:07 THIS. People try so hard to hold onto one version of themselves without realising the potential beauty different versions have

  • @73264899
    @73264899 5 ปีที่แล้ว +154

    I don’t typically comment, but I had to say I really connected with what you said around 15:16, where you said you didn’t want to hold on to a version of yourself that isn’t present at the moment. I’ve been struggling with my mental health for the past year & its caused my skin to flare up similarly to yours, where it started on the cheeks & has progressed into deep pimples around the majority of my face. I’ve also gained weight during this time. When I look in the mirror, I see a different version of the woman I was a couple of years ago & I have been on this journey trying to find love for the woman that is living here in the present. I have better days than others, but today happened to be a rough day. Hearing your journey has been an inspiration & reminder that love can always be found even in darkest times to heal us & strengthen us. Thank you for sharing.

    To me, it's really interesting how your 'skin journey' has taught you something new about people and how you approach listening to their opinions. It's almost like this was meant to be in order for you to grow mentally and to learn.

    Made it to the end, and I definitely have realized that it is all internal. Everything is in, out. I started yoga because of you and realized so much through it, that emotions don’t need to be hidden. Self love is the key, talking to yourself is key. Positivity, light, love from within spreads outward. Thank you, Hitomi for being so vulnerable and pushing us/your viewers to take on the inner journey 💛💛

    "Any time anyone has intense aversion to something it's a clear sign that there's something within themselves that needs to be looked at"
    YES 👏👏👏🙌
    This has been my motto for the last 2 years, it's brought be so so SO much healing, both in tracking my internal judgements and in noticing external judgements when they come in. I'm able to see the actual person/people under the trauma they're playing out (whether that's me or someone else) rather than getting lost in my triggers. It's insane how much this has changed my life and how much clearer my thoughts and observations have become!
    Thank you for putting this into words 💛 I'm so grateful to share this plane of existence with you :)

    God I wish I was like you, I’m so negative and easily upset by everything, I try my best to not be this person but everything hurts me, I feel like I’m too much for myself or for anyone else to handle, I really want to breathe easier and feel more comfortable and be able to trust myself and others but I am so so stuck, watching you be so effortlessly gentle and humble and a open minded soul makes me yearn to be more like that, but I just don’t know how.

      a good place to start is to try not to wish you were like someone else or wish you acted a certain way, look or eat certain things. tell yourself that you are okay with being you. you dont have to be super positive and cheerful about it, no one is when they first start learning to love themselves. you might not even believe it when you first start. but keep saying it. affirmations are so important, it will begin to manifest. and one day you truly will be okay and happy within yourself

      @heyyou3609 5 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      It's a journey that you have to push yourself to take.. Me 3 years ago could've been the same as me now but I decided then to try to self discover and to reflect on how I'm reacting to people and to the world, if I'm jealous WHY do I feel that way? What triggers negative emotions in me? What emotional baggage am I carrying and how can I unload it? ..etc Instead of judging people or hating on someone I would instead try and find good qualities in them and work on myself to accept others more, If I'm being self deprecating I would tell myself to list 5 things I like about myself or things I'm grateful for today in my life
      And after a while I started noticing changes in my behaviour and even in my mental health, I've became a lot softer and a better version of myself and hopefully would change for the better in the future.. Sorry if this is so long, I tried to give some tipe that might help you start

      You’re acknowledging this and that’s an amazing start. I feel like people can never grow if they don’t self reflect. Growing is a process and I don’t know you personally but I can tell you’re going to reach a place in your life where you’re truly happy with your own soul and energy, because you have the intent.

  • @rebeccajale4920
    @rebeccajale4920 5 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    Thank u for this video❤️ I have been dealing with dermatillomania (compulsive skin picking disorder) since i was 14 (i’m almost 18 now!) and was severely depressed throughout these years; the root of my picking was body dysmorphia, and, as u referenced in this vid - for me picking was a physical manifestation of how i was feeling in the inside - stressed, deeply upset and frustrated with myself and the way i looked. I picked and squeezed my skin to “rid myself of the imperfections” i perceived any minor zit, bump or lump to be. I was trying to ‘clear’ my skin this way, clean/squeeze out the “bad” as i wished i could my internal space - just squeeze away the negative until i felt light and clear again. Over the past year, after letting my physical appearance hold me back (the endless cycle of picking - i pick and my skin looks like a war zone so i’m too ashamed to leave the house, i get anxious and frustrated with myself and so i pick again & the cycle continues) i had become so tired of punishing myself for being sad. So i stopped. I used to tell myself i could only love myself once i had overcome my dermatillomania, until i realised that i should love myself, and my skin all the time - regardless of the state it’s in. This total readjustment of attitude & mindset (and exploration into spirituality ~ finding myself through the process of healing) made the difference on the inside, and thus made the difference on the outside. I am by no means *completely healed* (but what is that anyways??)) but i am doing so much better now, i rarely pick & have learned to deal with the negative feelings in a healthier, self loving and appreciating way. I am no longer punishing myself for struggling, and it feels amazing :)

  • @MunchyMoka
    @MunchyMoka 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I never related to someone so closely about this. My acne also looked a lot how yours did and it was at it’s worse around the time my anxiety peaked and my panic attacks started occurring frequently. I began binge eating and still haven’t stopped and I never tried to pinpoint why I was breaking out or why I was over eating. I just push all my thoughts down and go through life unhappy. I don’t know why I do this but this video gave me a wake up call.

  • @annamiller9898

    Thank you so much for this video. As so many people have been saying, acne can be traumatizing, and leave such a big scar on your soul. I am so inspired by the way you choose to look at this with love, and how you understand how emotional and physical clarity are often one and the same. This is the first video I've ever watched about acne that is made from a place of care and understanding rather than fear and shame. THANK YOU.

    The first 18 years of my life are my peak years of having the clearest and glowing skin. I am 19 now, everything has changed, there are so many transitions that have occurred and will occur. I started breaking out this year when I first started college. It was even during my pageant, an event that I considered to be the most important and most fruitful. From all the stress and late-night training, my self-esteem and self-confidence just gradually decreased day by day. Up until now, my acne is healing and my heart is healing. I don't know what to do. I haven't experienced anything like this.

    Thank you for this video and your presence in the media. You may not be everyone’s physical representation in the media (and by no means is the your responsibility) but your vulnerability and approach to speaking from the heart is the connection we all need. Made it to the end of the video as always, thank you for your wisdom.

    Your vulnerability and honest self reflection is so inspirational to me. It takes such power to face yourself openly with gratitude and love. I often times find myself falling short on the gratitude and love part.
    I sometimes get so lost in the beauty of aesthetics that it outweighs my ability to tune into less loud, more subtle beauties. And one thing I've been noticing throughout the past couple years is that I couldn't figure out how to interact with beauty. That I could look at it but never fully receive it. I couldn't, and still can't fully, understand the dynamic between beauty and myself, and I sometimes feel emptier after encounters with things I find extremely beautiful. Such as a forest with a fresh blanket of snow layes upon body, Moss so green it hurts your eyes, looking down on the Spanish Alhambra as the sun closes its eyes in the distance. I can acknowledge these beauties but not fully feel them. How do you fully let in, embrace, and interact with beauty?

    I'm currently coming out of a period of my life full of terrible acne, and it truly is such an internal thing. Being a student, its easy to be stressed and fall into bad habits, so just the acts of eating well, sleeping enough and going to therapy to work through issues I have really have truly helped my skin. Thank you so much for sharing, I'm so glad you've seen such a transformation and I value all of your thoughts and experiences. Love you bunches!

    You truly are a gem Hitomi. Thank you, seriously. The way you are able to make your words flow directly from your heart to touch others is beautiful. I’m struggling with scarring and acne right now and your words have helped me look at myself from a new perspective. I’ve been so hard on myself and critical of every “flaw”. Thank you for showing me how I can love myself more deeply and show up in ways I wasn’t before ❤️

  • @rain_huaa

    Thank you for this video!
    I’m struggling with acne right now and I can relate a lot.
    Earlier this year I went to the dermatologist and I told her I was vegan to clear that I was not consuming red meat nor dairy because the first thing they always tell you is to watch your diet for some time; and the moment I said that she told me that ‘eating certain things is essential for the body’... my acne comes from having a plant-based diet?? No. I know it has nothing to do with diet because I tried eating as clean as possible weeks before going to the dermatologist (no sugar: nothing changed, no oils: no change, just healthy fats: no change, more water: no change, just Whole foods: no change), food had nothing to do with my acne and I was sure.
    It took me more than half a year to go and search for another dermatologist and try to get help. This time I wasn’t gonna say at all that I was vegan just so that they wouldn’t blame the acne on it. The moment I entered there the doctor told me it was hormonal, no mention of diet because she could tell at a glance. I’ll be taking medication for the next 3-4 month, I’m about a week in and already seeing results. I’m happy.
    I have dark spots from the acne and I do feel uncomfortable going out, I do feel more insecure and I don’t want to see people that know me to tell how bad my skin has gone. But I get myself out of the house because I know I’m getting help and this is gonna get better eventually for sure. I may not have the perfect skin afterwards but I don’t care. I’ll be happy knowing that I’m good when the treatment ends. I also realized that if somebody in my life had the same problem I know it wouldn’t change at all how I feel about them, them as a person is what would matter to me. So I know I shouldn’t care that much about faces.
    It’s nice to see a video of you talking about this and again, thank you so much!

I watched the entire video and despite it being about acne, it resonated with me because I’ve been dealing with walls atm and it’s so hard for me to look in because of fear. You’ve reminded me to look inside myself with curiosity and to know home is in the heart and love is such a beautiful protection and ally for me. Thank you!

    beautiful🥰❤️all physical ailments come from an unhealed emotion within you. it could be suppressed and ignored for a long time (the emotion) before you understand that you have that ailment from your state of being and that your health and emotional state are interconnected. I find that acne usually comes from suppressed fear, anger, and shame. the first step is becoming aware that you feel any way and forgiving yourself and all others for feeling that way. there’s so much you will learn and understand, everything unfolds as it is meant to and you are always protected and guided💜💜the angels and all of the universe loves you more than you can imagine. things will change and get better for you, things happen that are beyond the mind’s comprehension. just invite the angels in and surrender. it’s ok to be angry and upset, let it out. i love you and i wish u all the best on your healing journey back home☯️💕
