Skincare with the MSBY BJ’s 🖤💍

because im h*gh and skincare routines is what I do at work every day

cw: face masks, white-head popping mentions, hair plucking, very self indulgent, pls god let me curate a routine for you if you don’t have one-

-

Atsumu has absolutely no routine to his name, and it frustrates you greatly because he has perfect. Fricken. Skin. Seriously, the worst is a few pimples that adorn his shoulders when he wears the same jersey or workout gear without washing it. You try to pop them, but he screams and runs away from the pain big baby

However, he does enjoy watching you go through your routine, how your face looks after the grime of the day has been washed away. He doesn’t ask questions because he already knows he’s not going to understand most of the products anyways. What he doesn’t like is when he tries to cup your face and kiss you, and you smack his hand away, “babe, I JUST washed my face!”

Bokuto, god bless him, has such oily skin that when he started watching you go through your routine, he shyly asked you if there was anything you had that could help him with his blackheads and oiliness. When you asked him what he used to wash his face, he told you he used his body wash.

You then dragged him to Sephora the next day, and he was like a kid in a candy store. (“Babe, did you know you’re supposed to wear sunscreen EVERY day-“) They set him up with a solid cleanser, an AHA/BHA for the blackheads, and a moisturizer, and he just watched like an absolute student as they explained and answered all his questions.

Now, his fave part of the day is when you wash your face together, even going so far as to tell his teammates about it, he’s so excited that he doesn’t get as shiny anymore. He asks when he can get more in depth in his routines, but you promise him that it takes some time for your skin to adjust to everything, and he’ll get there in time

Kiyoomi has perfect skin, but he’s had a routine for years. The first time he broke out as a teenager, Komori popped it, only for it to grow and get infected- and it freaked Kiyoomi out enough to scar him into a good routine. He splurges on the good stuff, he knows what his skin needs, and god, it shows.

The only thing he does that you’ve turned him onto, is a face mask, typically one that helps with combination skin because after practice and his skin has taken its toll, it provides enough balance to give him that natural glow back. He’s perfect, and you’re sure to snarl that at him every time your skin acts up, and he just cockily smirks and shrugs his shoulders, “what can I say? I’m good at what I do.”

Shoyo definitely has dry, sensitive skin. It’s scared him away from using most skincare, save for a cleanser Oikawa turned him on to years ago (now THATS a routine I know is STOCKED-) and that seemed to be helping a bit. But when he met you and saw everything you used, he definitely got a bit more curious and wanted to expand.

You recommend him some brands and products, definitely convinced him to go to a dermatologist, and just when he was about to give up on hope, Bokuto complimented his skin on how soft it looks, and Shoyo literally had to stare at himself to believe it.

He literally will wake you up to make sure you washed your face, because he now knows the importance of maintaining the skin, “yes Shoyo, I did, gooD NIGHT.”

💍Meian💍, my beloved, he has fairly nice skin too, maybe a little combination and acne prone, but for the most part, it’s manageable. He knows he should be washing every day, especially as an athlete, but he does do a quick cleanse in the shower by stealing your stuff.

The problem he does have, however, is with his lips. They’re so dry, they get so cracked and hurt the poor man, so you introduce a lip mask into his routine; he puts it on before bed, and that’s it. He loves it. You tease him every time you catch him pouting his lips out in the mirror, but he just chuckles and goes right back to it. They don’t split anymore, they don’t bleed, and he’s just on cloud nine.

You did try to get him to start plucking his brows, but he was absolutely ready to fight you when you plucked, he grimaced, and you kept going with a knowing grin on your face.

“Are you enjoying this?”

“I’m not not enjoying this,” you snicker.

thank you!!!!! i 100% agree with everything you said! this tsw*ft thing has be driving me absolutely crazy ever since i found out about it, because everyone seems to be giving her a pass and making excuses for her. it’s so cathartic to talk to someone who can call out this bullshit for what it is. like as someone whose literal existence is being threatened right now by n*zis, i just have no patience for people like sw*ft who won’t even speak out against them. thank your for letting me vent ❤️

^^^^^

no problem hon, happy to be here 

yeah it’s really dispiriting that ppl seem to excuse her behavior, claiming she’s innocent. she quickly becomes the fragile white girl who’s done nothing wrong. cuz that’s exactly who she aims to be for the public, no matter how “strong” she says she is. it’s always about how we’re attacking her, even though she’s done nothing to deserve it. by framing it like that, she gets away with doing “nothing” and she even romanticizes it: by doing nothing, she’s actually being “strong”, and standing up to her “bullies”. pffffff. 

i was thinking how she’s basically this narcissist who can only manage political and cultural realities through a “t*swift” filter, as in she literally needs it to be all about her in order for her to actually get involved and give a damn. her engagement with feminism stops when it doesn’t benefit her. same with class, race etc. if she personally gains nothing out of it, she is dead silent. the fact that she deleted all her social media and now mainly posts about her self-contained “reputation” universe is super telling. she is literally cutting off social and cultural ties because that would mean being an actual artist of the world, and taylor is only an artist of the self. 

and hey, that would be fine if that “self” had interiority. but what i’ve noticed is that, as much as her work is about herself, you don’t actually know much about her as an individual. we know about who she dated and that she owns cats i guess…and she sometimes hangs out on tumblr  to posture as a “regular gal”. the rest is tabloid gossip. her songs are cleverly devoid of an actual messy personality. the closest we got was “blank space” and i felt that she was moving in the right direction, but looking back on it now, maybe that song wasn’t as self-aware as i thought. because i suppose that, just like in “look what you made me do”, she was calling out the media instead of examining herself. so she’s actually constantly just singing about images and reflections of herself. never about her actual self. 

and she seems legit happy with that, like that’s the most she’ll ever explore. she’s the classic bookcase narcissist who has confined herself to an echo chamber on her platform (don’t even get me started on that stupid expensive new app where she’s “streaming” herself) and she refuses to acknowledge anything that might threaten her ego or her image. she’ll keep liking posts on tumblr about how “pure” and “wonderful” and “slayyy” she is, while firmly ignoring any constructive criticism about her art, her politics and her influence. 

yeah, she sux ass.
