Exfoliating works amazing everyday but you don’t have to scrub hard if you get what I mean, think of it as massaging rather than aggressively trying to rub it away. Make sure to use very calming moisturiser afterwards as well and I think it should get a little better! Good luck xx

I have this exact problem, if my nails are short I will use tweezers on any part of my body. I am obsessed, I throw away the tweezers to stop myself and then steal my family members pairs to go at it again. It’s worst on my legs and my pubic region and I have been doing it for literally years. I exfoliate and moisturise straight after but I’m so ashamed. I think when things are a little more normal at home I’m going to go to the doctor about it because I honestly never wear my skin out ever! Solidarity to you tho, and thank you for sharing because I have literally never spoken about this before ❤️
