My girlfriend has recently become obsessed with skincare; we try a new mask almost every day. I have to do it too, but honestly, it feels a bit excessive. Do you think it's that important? Is there another topic that comes to mind?
Every day a mask? That's too much for me 😬
Do you really want it, or did your boyfriend just pressure you into it? It's important.
@kahvebitmeden to be honest, I'm not very curious. I used to do it once a week, but now we're doing it every day at his insistence.
@aklimkaldi but you've accepted it yourself to do it every day, if you don't want to, you should have said it clearly 🙃
Doing it every day can damage the skin barrier. Dermatology experts generally recommend 1-2 masks per week. If you must, opt for light products suitable for your skin type; but your significant other shouldn't overdo it 🙄
Mine also once asked me to wipe my face with vinegar. I did it for 2 days, then I stopped; they get used to it anyway.
Just speak directly. Instead of doing it every day, let's reduce it to once a week. It's both seriously damaging and boring.
I think your partner needs to focus on their own skin instead of yours. It's strange that you're continuing to do something you don't enjoy just because they want you to. It seems like this has turned more into a control issue than their interest in skincare.
