I've never been a huge fan of beauty counters - I never had much interest in anything 'beauty' related, up until the last few years. In my teenage years, I was lucky enough to be blessed with quite good skin. Sure, I had the occasional pimple, but who didn't? My problems were nothing a bit of concealer couldn't fix.
Within the last year or so, my skin has flared up quite badly. All of a sudden, I had a delightfully spotty face, and even when the pimples cleared up, they left a huge red scar which would take close to a year to fade. I have ridiculously pale skin; I'm really not over-exaggerating. I've been called albino, translucent, and more recently, glow-in-the-dark (I thought it was creative!). In combination with the pale skin, the spots and scarring became ever more noticeable, and I became more and more self-conscious.
I have tried so many different products to attempt to heal the scars, but nothing had worked. On a whim, I stopped by my local Estée Lauder counter to see if they had anything to help. Being a student, I've shied away from more expensive solutions, as they just aren't in my budget.
