[BOTB] SKIN = STATUS

[Seth Walsh]

No, it's not what you think. I am not going to talk about skin colour.


Your skin isn’t just your largest organ—it’s a public resume of your discipline, health, and genetic fitness. Glass skin > Rolex. Here’s how to weaponize it:

---

1/ Start Early
The best time to fix your skin was at 16. The second best time is today.

• Teens/20s: SPF + retinoids = compound interest.
• 30s+: Damage control is 10x harder. Don’t wait.

---

2/ The Holy Trinity (Non-Negotiable)
A. Cleanser: Vanicream or CeraVe. AM/PM.
B. Moisturizer: Same brand. Keep it boring.
C. SPF 50+: Reapply every 2hrs outside. Brutal truth: UV damage = 80% of aging.

---

3/ Tretinoin: The Nuclear Option

• Start at 0.025%. Buffer with moisturizer.
• Use 3x/week → nightly over 6 months.
• Purge phase: 8 weeks of hell. Push through.
• Endgame: Collagen reboot, pores vanish, texture = silk.

---

4/ Diet = Invisible Skincare

• Eat: Fatty fish (omega-3s), carrots (vitamin A), tomatoes (lycopene), walnuts (zinc).
• Avoid: Sugar (glycation = wrinkles), seed oils (inflammatory), alcohol (dehydration).
• Optional: 10mg astaxanthin daily (oral sunscreen boost).

---

5/ Sleep Like a Vampire

• 7–9hrs. One bad night → cortisol spike → breakouts.
• Silk pillowcase ($20 on Amazon). Wash it weekly.
• Pro tip: Sleep on your back. Face-smushing = wrinkles.

---

6/ Advanced Hacks (Optional)

• AM: Vitamin C serum (brightening).
• PM: Niacinamide (pore refinement).
• Weekly: Glycolic acid (10%) on body (KP/backne).
• Optional: Red light therapy panel (collagen on steroids).

---

7/ Hands Betray Age First
SPF your hands DAILY.

• Why: Thinner skin + sun exposure while driving.
• Fix: Apply leftover face SPF to hands after face.
• Brutal truth: “Grandma face + veiny hands” = cope.

---

Skin is the ultimate flex—a 24/7 billboard of your lifestyle. No surgery, filters, or $$ can fake consistent discipline. Start now.



Invest in your skin. It’s the only outfit you can’t take off.
