During recovery, my skin took a serious hit. It lost its glow, looked dull, and just felt… unhealthy. It was like all the stress and toxins were showing up right on my face.
One of the biggest game-changers? Water. Drink as much as you possibly can. Hydration helps flush out the crap—literally and figuratively. Water is your best friend in early recovery. Follow it up with sleep (as much as your body asks for) and regular movement or exercise, even if it’s just a walk.
When it comes to skincare, I’ve tried a ton of products—some were a waste of money, but a few made a real difference for me. It didn’t happen overnight, and of course, everyone’s skin is different. But here’s what worked best for me and helped me get my skin back to a healthy, glowy place:
- Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence – insanely hydrating and healing
- Cosrx Daily Facial Moisturiser – simple, lightweight, and effective
- Cosrx 6 Peptide Collagen Serum – great for firmness and glow
I’m not promising these will work for everyone, but if you’re in recovery and your skin is suffering, these might be a great place to start. It takes time, but trust me—progress shows up in more ways than one.
