do you usually pick at night? what helps me is when i feel like my skin is breaking out… i use a face wash or even home remedies. i find when i feel like my skin is “cleaner” or “healing” that i’ll leave it alone more because i dont want to damage that process. it becomes somewhat less tempting to pick. and i notice that i usually do that at night, so i always wash my face and try to make it feel as clean as possible at night.
