I Hide Extra Socks in My Bag (But It’s Never Enough)

Most people don’t know what it’s like to feel embarrassed before you even take your shoes off. I do. I’ve learned to avoid white socks because the stains always show. I keep an extra pair in my bag, just in case. Sometimes two. I’ve tried everything—antiperspirant, powders, even blasting my feet with a hairdryer before work. Still, I feel the sweat start before I even leave the house. It’s like my body is warning me: you’ll never be comfortable in your own skin. I wonder if anyone else dreads summer, not for the heat, but for the fear of being found out. That no matter how clean you try to be, you always feel a little bit dirty. #SkinStory #BareFaceAnxiety #BeautyBurnout #Beauty #Skincare
