Choco-coco, I think these are very common mistakes we all make and regret but if they help other people avoid them, then I’m glad to share my experience.

And thank you for the useful tips! Although I’m sorry you had to learn the eyebrow thingie the hard way, doesn’t sound nice at all..

And I agree. There is also so much good skincare habits and products can do if you don’t eat a healthy diet. Thanks for the remainder.

Great article! I too made all of the mentioned mistakes :/ I’ve started to care a bit more over the last two years, so thanks for pointing it out even more, now that I read this from someone who can directly speak of the consequences, things like that seem more important.

One very useful thing I learned a while ago is that if you don’t have nicely shaped nails, they can look better after a while if you just file the nails a little bit on the sides and let them grow, then file a bit again and after a while they will kind of recover from whatever happened to them before.

And I unfortunately learned it late that it’s not okay to pluck eyebrows too much at the beginning of the eye brows because they WILL grow stray after that…

P.S. (everyone) Whenever you can EAT BETTER, DRINK WATER because it’s the only true cleanser for the body, and dont be lazy, EAT SOME FRUITS AND VEGGIES since they’re a direct source of vitamins which can only do good!!

Prettykitty, that’s great you’re wearing sunscreen a lot more. It will avoid so many problems with your skin when you’re older.

Courtney, that sounds really painful! Ouch! but don’t be embarassed because of your mistakes, we all make them. The important thing is that we learn from them.

Courtney, I’m really sorry to hear you have OCD, it’s such a sad and awful disorder. I think we all made mistakes when really young, especially when you consider that up to a few years ago, we didn’t really have blogs and youtube and so you didn’t have access to so much information and useful tips and tricks. Young people today are luckier in this regard.

Omg I just remembered I also tried pushing back my cuticles after soaking an hour in the tub, they completely cracked. It was extremely painful and horrible. I tend to learn lessons the hard way! I am so embarrassed of the dumb things I did in the past.

I made some pretty stupid ones… me at 12 or 13 putting on WAY more acne medication than needed, blobs of it, on a camping trip in scotching summer. And I wondered why the sun exposure was leaving welts on my face. I’ve done a lot of stupid things… I used to use so much shampoo it took an hour to rinse or just wouldn’t. Horrific make-up mistakes in grade 8, had NO idea how to put in on, WAY too much eyeliner and general make-up and it looked horrible. I wish I had had your blog than *regretfulness* I think my OCD makes me THINK I need way too much product or scrub too hard… so I need to watch my thoughts closely. OCD is really terrible all of you be glad your mind doesn’t torture you.
