Greetings to all! I'm 28 years old. I've never had perfect skin, I've undergone serious treatment for <a href="https://medena-staging.harleystreetskinclinic.com/condition/acne/">acne</a>, and it seemed to have completely cleared up. Recently, I met a guy online, we get on really well, and he likes me too. The problem is that I had a severe breakout just a few days ago, my whole face, impossible to cover up. He asked to meet this weekend, but I had to postpone it to the next. I can't figure out how to treat this horror by the weekend, I can't postpone it for another week, can I? I bought "Benzoyl Peroxide", but it only got worse. I'm really scared to show him my face like this. My previous suitor understood everything, didn't ask any unnecessary questions, but it didn't work out not because of my appearance. But with this guy, I don't know what to do. Has anyone been in a similar situation? What should I do?

You'll have to wake up in your own makeup too, so as not to scare him in the morning😊 You have two options: 1) show up with all your spots and count on a reasonable reaction, like your previous suitor. 2) Treat your skin, saying that you're a bit under the weather, and really want to meet, and you think the most convenient time is in two weeks)

Could these rashes be due to stress? Perhaps you've been overly anxious? Try taking some mild antidepressants along with your skin treatment. What did you use for treatment before? Like clay masks, as you used to do?

I would say that I've fallen ill and postponed it.

The main thing is how you feel with such skin - if you're unsure, then postpone the meeting, I advise Baneocin in powder form (it helps to remove inflammation very quickly), if you're confident - then go to the meeting without delay. In reality, we wind ourselves up a lot, if the guy isn't a fool, he won't obsess over your skin.
