A very odd question but in what ways can tears affect your skin? πŸ˜…

When I was younger, I was told once when I was crying don’t cry or you’ll get spots πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ tears aren’t good for your skin. So whenever I cried I either cried with my head tilted forward so it doesn’t roll down my face instead it’ll hit the ground or I catch every drop on tissue πŸ˜‚ (I did this when I was younger) I’m 21 now and I cry like a normal person streaming down my face like a hot mess πŸ˜‚ but I just wanted to know can tears cause anything to your skin?

When my barrier was seriously damaged I got little red bumps after I cried, probably because of the salt in it. Otherwise your skin should be able to handle a good cry.πŸ™ˆπŸ˜…πŸ˜…

I guess my skin can handle a good cry but when a spot pops up on my cheeks out of no where I immediately accuse my tears πŸ˜‚

A crying session usually makes the skin around my eye area drier than usual. My cheeks are also more itchy when it happens.
