Skin Care
Do you take care of your skin or do you just treat your face as a utilitarian slab of meat? It feels weird how essential our face is to our lives and the relationship we have with it, but so many people seemingly disregard it in Western cultures.

I cleanse, exfoliate, moisturize and apply serums.

I put the lotion on my skin or i get the hose again.
I hate skin, so I got rid of all of mine.
I avoid clogging my pores with external sources of industrial contaminant.

My body's rejection of the food components is already quite severe.

Obsessing over face skincare is for girls.
That being said taking care of beards is manly and awesome.

Very good idea and that is why makeup is bad. However, there are organic cleansers and exfoliants. A mud mask is just that....mud, but it works wonders for your skin.

I'm a fungal chimera, so any kind of soap or oil literally harms and attacks my skin.

I could probably wash my face with water more at the end of the day, but realistically that just spreads the bacteria and oils around. Which my skin, being a mushroom sausage casing, is also harmed by. Maybe 3 days of washing dries it out, makes even worse problems.

That's crazy. I feel bad for you. At least try to get an exfoliant brush and use with warm water if you can.

Describe. From your profile pic, I assume it has quite the level of detail involved.

Doesn't exfoliating make skin worse?

Yes, I used to wash with an exfoliant in the shower and it made my hairline recede due to irritation and scratching.

I like my skin intact and non-irritated, thanks.

Might as well try to acid-wash the pressure calluses off my toes, rather than just scrubbing them down once in a while.

Only if you do it all the time.

DO NOT exfoliate more than 1 time per like 2 weeks or so.

No, where did you hear that? I used to have quite a bit of topical sun damage on my face and exfoliating has made a lot of progress at healing and rejuvenating the skin.

You must be placed into a bubble.

I read somewhere that it's bad in general.

Some people's skin is more tolerant of sloughing than others.

There's really no universal skincare routine that applies to more than 10 or 13% of the population.

It's actually important that I just wash and not use soap. Since soap usage contributes to my usage as a bioweapon breeder.
