One of my very first make-up clients as a brand new esthetician was a 29 year old bride with a bright red dot on the tip of her nose, that I had a terrible time covering up. Whatever I did, it would show through, unless I really caked on the cover-up.
She wasn’t born with the red dot, she got it at age 12 when her mother attempted (out of love:-) ) to pick a pimple on the end of her nose. 15 years later, she has a permanent reminder. It was the size of a pencil lead, and my client had a “whatever” attitude about it. She had learned to live with it. That’s reason #1. Cause you just don’t know how it will turn out. Reason #2 is: When you push down on the pimple, (especially if it is red, sore, infected), you’ve now pushed that infection into the surrounding skin tissue, and like bunnies, there’s a good chance they will mulitply! Kind of defeats the purpose huh. And reason # 3: Occasionally, I have clients that pick and pick and pick and eventually, they can’t stop break the habit without a HUGE effort. The habit gets obsessive and their skin pays a huge price! The pimples take on a very flat reddened, appearance. When I see that, I know “H0uston we have a problem.” I know pimples can be aggravating, embarrassing, painful, and affect self esteem. But the reality is, If you pick wrong, you can get bad results that make the problem worse! There is a right way (in another post) and a wrong way. Please, please, please respect yourself enough to learn the right way! As Always . . . Take care of your birthday suit, Lisa
