We’ve been taught to believe that “good skin” means flawless, smooth and poreless.
But here’s the truth: real skin has texture—and that’s not a flaw.
Pores aren’t something to erase. They’re a natural, essential part of your skin. They help regulate oil, release sweat, and keep your barrier functioning. Without them, your skin couldn’t breathe or stay balanced.
That means…
➡️ Seeing your pores up close? Normal.
➡️ Having uneven texture in certain lighting? Normal.
➡️ Feeling small bumps or dryness sometimes? Still normal.
Social media filters and high-definition cameras have made us hyper-aware of our skin, but the glow you see on camera isn’t reality—it’s editing, lighting, and smoothing filters.
Pores don’t make your skin bad—they make it human. Here’s your reminder to stop zooming in and start loving your real skin. 🩷
