I believe that my sister and I are extremely similar genetics wise, in terms of what our skin and bodies are supposed to look like. We're both good looking, we just look a little different.
My sister is over 10 pounds thinner than me, and my skin is a whole lot nicer than hers. However whenever she asks me for skincare advice I tell her what I do to my skin and she says, no no no, that won't work for me, my skin is so different than yours, it's so much more acne prone, etc. I've tried to convince her that my skin is not that different than hers, I just really take care of it.
My sister obsesses about having a perfect body and my obsession is perfect skin. She freaks out when she gains weight but is ok with acne, and I'm happy with my weight and I freak out over getting pimples. |

| Yeah I'm with you Nimue. Perfect skin is waaaaaay better than weighing 10 pounds less. |

| Neither one of you is right or wrong. I say to each his own. |

That's exactly what I'm saying!  Neither of us is right, we just have different priorities. Of course I think my priority is better and my sister thinks her priority is better, by definition!  |

For me it's not about that, but that there'll be differences of opinion whether the "extra couple pounds" are even that bad. However, nobody will ever say that pimples are good! |
