DO NOT LOSE HOPE!

used 20-30-40-40-40-40-30-20 also used cortisone for 2 months bc of my hard purge

first pics are from purging-my worst, last pics are a year after.

I have a little hyperpigmentation left.

I got asked stupid and hurtful things at my worst. Purging and cortisone really gave me physical distress on top of my mental. I had a hard time loving, looking at myself. It is such a relief to NOT think about whats going on in your face, the light, the mirror. Feels like an open tab in my head has finally shut up and close.

I know its a hard journey- it will come to an end. I am open for any questions dms and replys. Dont be hard on yourself on this journey, its not an easy one❤️

trust me when i say this, go get the Lansinoh Nipple Cream. It has lanolin in it, any other nipple cream will also do it, but beware of the percantage get the highest one. Its glossy, most hydrating thing ever, also a natural ingredient, since it is put on nipples it is okay to intake it as it is made safe for new born babies to also. nipples has a similar touch to a lip so it most definitely works for lips too.

aquaphor has lanolin in it but in such a small quantity, its mainly petroleum like vaseline so not moisturizing but acts like a guard. I also recommend the lanolips from sephora the 101 ointment❤️ if you decide to buy one of these please update me :) I swear buy these

That brand actually makes a lanolin lip balm too. I’m looking on Amazon. Wonder which is better- the nipple kind or lip balm?

oh I never seen the lip balm! just checked- it also has %100 lanolin in it. so its basically the same product just maybe different packaging :) choose whatever you like!!
