My skin is so bad recently that my mom even commented on it when I come home for the holiday. Recently, I've had a really great yet extremely taxing opportunity to apprentice for a world class chef. I work ridiculous hours, fourteen on average and only Sunday off, and although I wash and moisturize my face regularly, in other words I try and take care of it, lately I feel like my skin is just awful only after an hour or so after washing. Additionally, even though I am a chef, my diet is not too good these days because there is hardly any time to eat, and when there is I find myself eating fast food outside the restaurant because I don't want to waste any time. So anyway, this whole situation is made even more depressing due to there being a girl with absolute porcelain skin I know, and although I love my job and don't complain elsewise, I feel less and less confident being with her. I am asian, Korean to be exact, and both my parents have good skin, my mom especially.
Could this be the sole reason for my bad skin all of a sudden?
Have you considered the grease and the condensation from all the steam in the kitchen floating around and landing on your skin? I know it sounds disgusting but a kitchen environment is not that great for skin--it's hot, humid and there's lots of stuff steaming and frying away that floats in the air. Usually long hours and poor diet don't wreak that much havoc alone on one's skin.

I would start by trying to eat properly, this can really help your skin. Also, make sure you drink LOTS of water, It works wonders for your skin.I would only exfoliate once a week. I bet the skin problem is from a combination of stress, not eating properly and maybe sweating in the kitchen. You could try this stuff called Spectro Jel, I have been using it for 8 years, I love it. You can get it at the drugstore. It is what my dr recommended.
Get some type of face wipe and clean your face when you are at work if you can to get rid of the greasiness.
