My biggest flaw is my body and how skinny i am,literally need the help of gymcels on how to start(i have a bit of experience) but mostly how to stay on the grind for months and not give up after 1-2 months
Also i have a lot of questions about skinmaxxing,i am white af(not irish white but white) which sucks but my skin generally looks youthful so i wonder what should i use to have a good glow is beta carotene the answer?

What do you want to know exactly about skin?
What is your current skincare routine?
Beta carotene isn't my area, other people can advise better on this one.
Vitamin C is a great all rounder. Hyperpigmentation, brightening, antioxidant, collagen, the list goes on.
How old are you? And are you already using sunscreen?

i am 20,at the moment not using anything i have though cleanser moistorizer and sunscreen(which i mostly use on summer)
My skin needs for sure to be a bit more 'tanned' or darker tone idk how to say it,and also my cheeks are a bit red which doesnt make the best contrast in my case
also should i cleanse and moistorize both morning and evening?what about after going home after gym?

beta carotine has no sides other than u can look orange as fuck if you dont have the right skin color. just order from the internet, first 4 weeks take 60mg then 15mg a day

Yes, you should be cleansing and moisturising morning and evening. What time do you go to the gym? You could move one of the routines to after the gym?
Which products do you currently have?

i use castalia laboratoires dermatologiques products for both cleansing and moisturising
well i either go around 11-12 in morning or 7-8 afternoon on gym so i guess i could just only move the morning routine if i go to gym in the morning hours

Which products specifically? Yeah, just shift your routine around to fit your gym schedule

That cleanser is likely to be pretty harsh. Moisturiser looks okay- might be a little heavy if you're particularly oily with the mango seed and shea butters though.

Try melanotan 2

are the products in your google doc the ones u propose generally?

Start doing stronglifts 5x5 program. Eat a fuck ton of whole foods, no sugar or junk, drink gallon of water a day. Dont worry about getting fat, if you're naturally skinny like you say then you won't gain much fat with ur newb gains

Pretty much. Those are products that either I or other people close to me (in cases where a product isn't appropriate for my skin) have used and would generally recommend. If you've got any specific issues or questions I could possibly find something that might be more appropriate though.

i dont have something specific wrong with my skin i guess only the redness in my cheeks?
idk what causes it tbh and i have searched and didnt find an answer on how it would go away,i think only if i got tanner
