I exfoliated for a month and this is what happened

Greetings,
I tried exfoliating my face for a month, from the 1st to the 31st of January 2021, using a facial exfoliating scrub I found on Amazon. I bought the 150ml bottle which lasted me about a month, using it every time I showered, which is approximately everyday.
My skin isn't looking it's best, that's for sure. I spend countless hours in front of a computer screen. I worked in very high-stress jobs for many years. I haven't been getting as much sleep as I should and until recently I have been mildly dehydrated. All these are bad for my skin.
To add to all that, I have not been in the tropics for a long time. My skin type is meant to be in the sun (strong, intense sunshine and hot weather conditions), so it has suffered for that too.
I don't actually care that much what I look like, but I figured why not put my best leg first and make some improvements. Besides, I just wanted to see if this stuff really works or is just of gimmick.
The results were quite interesting I think.
Peace & Love,
Adé
