At 4 o'clock in the morning, I was awakened by a rustling sound.

Lying on the bed and looking down, I saw Qiao Lan had woken up and was noisily getting ready.

The tap was running continuously, and she stared at herself in the mirror as if she had gone mad. She swept everything off the washstand with a shout.

Mo Mo rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked her:

"Qiao Lan, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Lan maintained her original posture and coldly said:

"Get lost!"

Mo Mo dared not speak, and the three of us were awakened early in the morning.

Qiao Lan didn't know what had gotten into her.

She vigorously squeezed her skin with her hands. From my position, I could only see the unevenness of her profile, with some protrusions and a large area of redness.

"Ah—ah—ah—" She continued to scream, and there was movement in the corridor. I could hear the voices of other classmates searching for the sound.

"Stop making noise, you've scared everyone else awake."

I got out of bed, walked to Qiao Lan's side, took a quick glance, and then looked away:

"My skin wasn't great before, with crazy breakouts, but I gradually improved it to what it is now."

I carefully chose my words, hoping not to hurt her self-esteem.

"If you follow the method I'm telling you, your pimples will clear up quickly."

Qiao Lan became slightly calmer and turned her head to look at me.

"What method?"

I stared at her.

"First, you have to avoid certain foods, reduce oil and salt intake as a basic rule, quitting sugar is important, and no alcohol or staying up late."

I said.

"You've probably heard these words a thousand times, but they're truly important."

"Secondly, give up all those random facial cleansers that easily damage the skin barrier, and use mineral water to wash your face. If you feel it's not clean enough, then just use the most basic gentle facial cleanser."

I glanced at the bottles and jars on her table, "It's best for you to go to the hospital and get checked, don't listen to MLM scams anymore."

She paused and calmly said.

"Understood."

In the following days, she did try to follow the advice of not staying up late and reducing sugar intake.

The number of crazy episodes also decreased.
