It’s time for your relationship with your skin to Blume ✨

Acne. Pimples. Zits. Blemishes. Whatever you call them, we all know 'em. I’ve been struggling with acne since I started growing boobs & pubes at the ripe age of 11 - and girl, has it been a journey.

The funny thing about acne is that it's not the zits themselves that are so unbearable. It’s how we anxiously feel like everyone’s staring directly at them. How we desperatly poke and squeeze in the mirror in hopes that they go away. The concealer. The embarrassment. The insecurities. The way we fixate on the blemishes at forget the beautiful canvas it’s on.

I’m no longer a hormonal high schooler and I still break out every. single. period. Without fail, when the crimson wave starts flowing, the pimples start showing. And when the redness and whiteheads take their leave, I end up with a lingering little dark spot to commemorate what once was.

Accutane, Curology, toothpaste, turmeric, I’ve done it all. Yet nothing hit the spot - literally - until I met Blume. Skin care designed to go with your flow.

Genius.

Their Meltdown acne oil’s unique formula reduces redness and the appearance of blemishes and dark spots all while keeping your skin hydrated and dewy. Even without a breakout, I still indulge with some meltdown in my moisturizer simply just because.

Blume has a full line up of clean, cute and exceptional products - including a face wash, moisturizer, dark spot fader and more. They even a natural deodorant called ‘Hug me’ that freekin Gigi Hadid herself swears by.

As if that wasn’t enough, Blume champions all by making eco friendly pads & tampons. Their brand impacts people of all ages by creating a safe, educational space for young menstruators to build a positive relationship with their bodies and monthly cycle.

The thing I love about Blume is that they don’t market to you like once you use their products you’ll never get a pimple again. They celebrate your skin. Acne, dark spots and all.

These products are meant to hold your hand through your skin care and period journey. Help you through your meltdowns and slowly fade away your insecurities.

Look to Blume as your skincare BFF ✨ I’m sure glad I did.
