Chill! Let go of stress, babe!
When you stress out, you send your cortisol hormones through the roof and oil production spikes with it. Stress is a way of life now-a-days. Take a walk, take silent time for yourself, practice meditation or yoga, or a start a deep breathing/mindfulness practice. Somewhere, being busy has become the same as appearing important, but the stress produced in our body is telling us clearly - its not cute and not what is best to have healthy mind, body, or face.
