“When I changed contraception and developed swollen, pussing, throbbing cystic acne, I was bitter — it changed me in ways I never imagined. I loathed myself. I cried myself to sleep”
Lydia Pang, who oversees the Brand Narrative team for Nike Global in Portland, Oregon, says acne is the best thing that ever happened to her. It’s a sentiment born out of years of struggle and self-examination.
Now, Pang emphasizes that her skin isn’t perfect, but she’s made peace with it. “I’m an impatient person, so my skin story has really become more about liking myself and being kinder to myself,” Pang says. She implores anyone struggling with acne to drop the expensive acid products and to stop with the self-loathing “because from skin diaries to food diaries to poop diaries to thousands of dollars on makeup, treatments, peels, and lasers, the only change that truly worked was my attitude shift.
Now that I’m coming out of the end of my acne journey, I can’t quite let go of the soap. I do pray that one day I won’t need to use it, but for now, it’s my go-to. I even pack it when I go abroad in a little ziplock sandwich bag. She’s classy.” $90 at Violet Grey Buy The Serum Eminence Clear Skin Willow Bark Booster-Serum $56 “Spot or no spot, I then apply some Eminence Clear Skin Willow Bark Booster-Serum and finish with Eminence Clear Skin Probiotic Moisturizer . I love all of the Eminence products. They smell clean and apply nicely. You barely need any product for coverage, so they last a long time and always leave my skin feeling smooth and ready for primer and makeup.
$50 at Crunchi Buy The Extras Hilma Immune Support $20 “Next up, depending on the day, I might finish with something for the inside, as a reminder that health and beauty come from within. Hilma is a female-founded natural-remedies brand. I love its immune-support sachets. They taste really good, when, let’s be real, those things usually taste bad.
