My Jawline Never Got the Memo

I keep pinching the skin under my chin in the bathroom mirror, hoping it’ll snap back. I’m not overweight. I eat the salads, I run, I do the stupid jaw exercises TikTok swears by. Still, my face softens into a double chin the second I look down at my phone or laugh too hard in a photo. It’s like my body didn’t get the memo about the rest of me. My friends say they don’t notice, but I see it in every Zoom call, every selfie I delete. I catch myself stretching my neck in public, trying to hide it, feeling ridiculous and exposed. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever stop obsessing over this tiny, stubborn pocket of skin that no one else seems to care about but me. #MirrorFatigue #BareFaceAnxiety #BeautyBurnout #Beauty #Skincare
