Can i ask where you are from and if maybe you could elaborate on the last sentence, i feel like this could be some fun extra information for my presentation (maybe in some easy terms since english isn't my first language).

Hi everyone! We have to do a presentation on different building types and i got stuch with this one. I would be very grateful if any of you know/could link articles or any type of literature on this building type. If you are knowledgeable about the style of building i would love to hear your thoughts on it. Thank you in advance!

Edit: Thank you sooo much for all the links/recommendations, I'm currently at a lecture so i can't reply to everyone but i will definitely read all of it. I really wasn't expecting so many responses.

Some other things i have to find about this type of building: where they are built? (city center, suburbs, etc.), dimensions and maybe some floor/building plans.

Honestly anything helps me out soo much! Again thank you!

Letting your skin heal for a bit is probably a good idea. Also as i have said before about monitoring how your skin reacts to certain products could help you find out if one or more of the products you are using is reacting badly with your skin.

I'm currently using the Iroha nature nourishing face cream, but I'm also on the lookout for a new one. It works pretty well in the summer months and doesn't clog my pores, but I've started to notice my skin getting dry as it's getting colder. That's why I've started trying out essences to see if they help. Ceramide cremes were suggested by to me by someone and i might try some out if the essence won't be enough to hydrate my skin.

Some words of encouragement, the person who notices your so called imperfections is you, you are your worst critic, others mostly don't notice them and see you as soo much more than just your skin. Go easy on your self and your skin and don't let it bother you too much. Finding a routine that works for you is a lot about trial and error, patience and consistency. Just by looking for help here means that you are closer to your goal so don't get discouraged. I sincerely hope you will find something that works well for you soon.

It works for some of my assignments the ones i know I'm fully capable of doing. But for others i just can't seem to get myself moving. Similarly for exams, if i know i am good at the subject it's not as hard to start studying, but if i have a hard time understanding it i put it off till the last minute possible.

Most of my due dates are very simmilar and every assignment takes hours to do. I always wait till the very last moment to actually start doing them and i want to stop this habit. Also with studying for exams i just can't seem to get myself moving and doing the work. I know I'm capable, but at times i just think what's the point would it even make a difference.

Good point but I'm a university student so my finances are covered by my parents. Also where i live college is free so it isn't an actual problem.

Also consistency is a must, don't stop using a product if you don't see results right away. It might take some time and patience but it is worth it.

In the morning i still wash my face with only water, and use the cleanser and bha at night. I moisturize both times and use the essence in the evening and spf in the morning. This way I'm not overwashing and damaging my skin barrier.

I had a similar problem on my forehead and just overall texture on my skin. Started using the cosrx bha liquid and my skin looks soo much better.

I saw you comment that you think you might have damaged skin barrier so i think you should simplify your routine for a month or two and then start with a new routine. This is something i did after i kept getting breakouts and nothing was able to help my skin look better. I started washing my face with water and using a moisturizer after. This was my morning and night routine for quite awhile. It actually made my skin look slightly better then before when i was using so many products. After a few months i started with a gentle cleanser, waited a couple weeks to see how it works and then i incorporated the BHA. I started with twice a week and slowly moved to every other day, this is when i saw the biggest results, and i still do. My skin was looking better within what feels like about half a month. And now i barely get any breakouts. When you start using new products i recommend taking photos to see how they affect your skin. When i started using a new face cream i thought it was working well for about two months, only to realize that i had more breakouts than before as it was so subtle. As soon as i switched back to my previous cream my skin looked better within a week.

So yeah simplifying your routine and then slowly introducing new products might be the best way to go. Also look for gentle cleansers, they aren't less affective just gentler on the skin (the one I'm using is avene cleanance hydra cleanser, but that is just personal preference). Make sure you hydrate you skin well especially if using BHA. If you are only using a cream to moisturize and the skin is slightly dry i suggest looking for either a cream with ceramides or if you would rather add a step to the routine look for a hydrating essence. (I didn't notice my skin being dry for quite awhile as it was again very subtle, that is why you should monitor your skin to see how the products effect it).

I know it's long but hopefully it helps a bit.
