The term "self-care" means different things to different people, but for Hyland, it's an extension of self-love — and a reminder to slow down. "The big a-ha moment where I was like, 'I need to change something here,' was when I went into rejection. I lost a lot of control in that situation — and I'm a control freak. I have always found that if you do something, and you're working toward a goal, then you do whatever you can to reach that goal within your means. Not being able to control something like that with my health was really hard for me to absorb."
"I was like, 'My body is going through all of this crazy drama right now and I have no idea what to do other than to keep it the best shape that I can right now with the tools that I have."
"That's when I decided to take control of the things in my life that I did have power over, and that's when I started to get into skincare. I didn't really have a routine before. I was 26 and I was like, 'I'm starting to get older; I'm in the 25-to-30 bracket. I should probably start taking care of my skin better and do preventative things for my face and for my body. My body is going through all of this crazy drama right now and I have no idea what to do other than to keep it the best shape that I can right now with the tools that I have.'"
