I know my period is coming when I start breaking out and having big craving for sweets (well, I love sweets always but especially during my period!) đ These are my essential products for getting through shark week đĽ˛
Skincare:
I often break out during my period, which is common due to changing hormone levels. đ To clean my face I use the Mother Made Charcoal Powder Wash, which contains charcoal to detoxify the face. I apply the La-Roche Posay Effaclar Duo Acne Spot treatment on my blemishes. The benzoyl peroxide allows blemishes to dry quickly and reduce the inflammation! If I have really big spots, I will use the Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch, which are acne spot stickers that you apply on the blemishes to reduce the size and redness. âşď¸
Tea:
I love drinking tea during my period! đ I always drink caffeinated tea in the mornings (especially since my periods make me extra tired) but herbal tea like chamomile and peppermint are great for the afternoon and night! Both of these teas have properties that decrease menstrual pain and boost the mood. âşď¸ I have found that these hot herbal teas soothes my cramps without having to take medication!
Snacks:
During my period, I get huge sweets cravings. I love Chip Ahoys and gummy candies! Cookies with tea is always a good combination đ
