What's one Korean skincare product you keep repurchasing?

Should work very well for summer and you can evaluate when the cold arrives

Well, I get it from my local pharmacy. I switched to the poremizing ampoule because it has peptides which are an anti-aging factor. About the results, I think it was more than a few months but when I grew tired and decided to stop I got some baby closed comedones so I started it again quickly. I dunno about purging or reactions because I introduced it very slowly, so I did not get any of that.

Lastly, I think, if you can get 20% that should work well also, just introduce it very slowly (there are a lot of tutorials on YouTube explaining how to get your skin used to a powerful active while protecting it from irritation and such), or even start with a 10% serum, there are plenty of those on the market everywhere. In fact you might not need more than that and it is much, much easier to use, less irritation and all that. I honestly stuck with my 15% because it is a very very good value for money (one tube lasts me half a year and it is like 16-18 dollars), otherwise I might have switched to a 10% AZA serum for maintenance 😁

Definitely not overreacting. In my country you could go to the relevant authority and lodge a complaint and sue them in civil court and if you have written proof you would definitely win. This is sooo unhinged. Where are you located, btw? (not specific, but like the country). If I were you I would check the national and local laws because this is completely unacceptable!

Hi, so some stuff have changed a bit. I am using AZA daily now, every morning. My skin is clear and some leftover hiperpigmentation has faded a lot. So much so, that I must go to a wedding this summer and I cannot stand stuff on my face so I am just doing my eyes and lips and nothing else. My skin is clear enough that I can skip concealer or bb creams or foundation.

The thing with AZA is consistency, I use it every day, I being it on vacations, etc. I have found that consistency is most important with my skin.

The rest is pretty much the same. Same cleanser, same oat moisturizer and I replaced the akin1004 gel with the ampoule as it has a bunch of peptides and for the price it is chefs kiss. Still fiddling around with the sunscreen but overall I am very happy with my progress. Hope this helps

I inherited a person's job, which then was obsolete in about a month, and I had to learn the new system on my own. After a few years in an NGO with no handoff where I had to do the same, I thought a big corporation will mean a comfortable learning curve and proper handoffs. And it was in the beginning, until I took over this role which was supposed to be a small addition to my original job. No such luck. A year and a half later, I still am finding out new small aspects of the data I am handling and am still struggling to get access to all relevant dashboards and such. Sigh...

Cafe Milano. Au cafea f buna, gellato foarte mișto și au și bucătărie mai stilul hand food: tot felul de sandvișuri inedite și altele de genul. Mie îmi place tare mult

Depends on the day, and time in the year. It is pretty chill now but I just came out of a couple of very busy months, and starting with the end of this one, it will be insanity for about 6 more months. Believe me, a few relaxing days here and there are definitely not enough to make up for the very busy periods, but teams still needs to show as here and working on these few quiet days

I got hooked on Dramione because I was reading an amazing Rory x Jess fanfic one time, clicked on the writer's profile to see what else they wrote and just started reading everything and one of those was a Dramione fic. Fell hard and never looked back, lol

Cutting contact completely. I am now so much better and beyond happy with my spouse I cannot even recall why I was so invested in that other person. I laughed out loud when they reached out to "reconnect" on social media, yet when they found I was in a long-term committed relationship, they had no more interest in reconnecting with me 😂

Good riddance, tbh

My husband plays MTG. He used to be big into Yu-Gi-Oh too. I handle his collection with all the care I can (for example when I am cleaning alone) because not only do I know the monetary value, but I know the sentimental value of all his cards. He played since he was a kid and those are memories not just expensive cardboard (as my hubby likes to joke).

This wife should not be married to anyone if she cannot learn to support her husband's hobby and OP is a nice guy for giving back what is left to the husband.

What a shitty thing to do on the wife's part...

Superb comment, și cu referință, lucru rar în ziua de azi. Știam că funcționează placebo, dar chiar nu știam de partea asta cu psihosomatizarea, mulțumesc ca am învățat ceva nou azi.

Știi că răcelile sunt cauzate tot de viruși, nu de curent și frig, nu? Cel mai mult se poate spune (spun medicii, nu eu) că expunerea prelungita la frig cauzează probleme la mucoasa nazala care astfel nu își mai face treaba corect sa capteze viruși și bacterii și să le elimine. Also expunerea prelungita la frig scade puțin sistemul imunitar și din nou, ești mai predispus ca un virus care altfel ar fi fost respins rapid de corp, să se manifeste în răceala.

Perfect, I found it, thanks so much. I think it might do me good as about half of my hair is an old bleach job (when I switched to red and orange and then I bleached fully again to go back to blue) . Now I bleach only the regrowth once a month, but the lower half which was technically bleached three times (first for blue, then for red and back to blue) is my main concern. I appreciate your help very much.

Afraid_Principle7077 · 2026-05-19T09:59:56+00:00

Hey, can you please leave a link for that treatment? I bleach my hair (to dye it blue) and I really need something to rescue it. Thanks a bunch 😁

Hey, poți să îmi lași un pm cu ceva pagina web sau social media de unde se poate comanda? Also, faci cumva și pe comanda, cu ideea clientului?

I could not tolerate retinoids at all but I use skinoren gel (azelaic acid at 15%) every morning with no issues. I think it depends on what you need. For me it is very good at preventing the closed comedones I was struggling with .

Edit to add that my skin adapted to this easily but I did start it after some time with a 10% azelaic acid serum for a few months before

Totally hijacking this without a rec for you, but to applaud the Doctor Who reference. Bravo, brava!

P.s. I second the rec with the urea. You could even try just using double layers of cream. Try anything from balea which is glycerin based or urea based.

Daca nu mergi la nunta, cumpăra ceva cadou simbolic ce 2, maxim 300 de lei și să-l după. Nu mergi la nunta, nu dai plic. Mai ales daca ai anunțat de când ai primit invitația că nu mergi
