Meet: My Skin...dun, dun, dun!

Without makeup, my skin isn't even close to magazine cover flawless.  I have redness, freckles, scarring, ridiculously oily spots right next to flaky dry patches.  It is infuriating!  I would liken my relationship with my skin to that of a war.  I have a highly regimented routine to battle the bacterial enemy of acne, the oily patches, the dry spots, and now that I am 25, the new fine lines and wrinkles so kindly on the attack.  I use my arsenal of cleansers, toners, lotions, masks, primers, and spot treatments as my skin unleashes hormonal acne, cystic acne, oil, dryness, redness, wrinkles, and my new favorite - severe allergies, without any warning or regard my plans.  Ugh! I am telling you, it's a war zone out there! 

I can't believe I am posting a picture of my skin at the moment, but here it is:
This is particularly bad for me.  Notice the redness from recently healed breakouts, scarring from old breakouts and current spots that I wish would stop already!
