I just cut my bangs, they were microbangs before but I don’t know if they really suit me. Anyways, this is how they look now. The last photo is when I got the microbangs. Any advice for improvement are welcomed.
What is happening to my lips?
Please, I need answers. A week ago, I woke up with blisters on and around my lips. They were itchy, and my lips felt very dry and gritty. They also burned; it felt like I had a sunburn. I stopped using all active ingredients in my skincare routine and applied only Vaseline. It got worse over the next few days, so I went to the emergency room; they said it looked like herpes simplex and prescribed an antiviral medication and an over-the-counter cream. I wasn't convinced, though, because when I searched online, I couldn't find any images that resembled my case. I’ve been taking the antiviral and applying the cream for three days now, but I haven't seen any improvement. I’ve also noticed that my skin feels rough when I wash my face; at first, it was just my nose—which felt very congested—but now it’s affecting the rest of my face and leaving it red, which doesn't usually happen to me. I’m overwhelmed by the many possibilities—cheilitis, dermatitis, eczema, etc.—and I’m afraid it will keep getting worse while I remain in the dark about what it is and how to manage it. I need to know I’m not the only one dealing with this.

Just trying to have a nice day and enjoy the day like a normal person would but being instantly humbled when trying to create memories and taking photos. Doesn’t matter how hard I try to look pretty, the makeup just disappears in the scars. And they are literally in all my face, there’s not a single space where I have healthy normal skin. It hurts because I can see beauty but it’s ruined by the scars 💔.
I can’t imagine myself having a nice life with a face like this. I’m always feeling anxious and deeply sad every fucking day.
