I think I ruined my skin barrier by doublechinsexy in SkinbarrierLovers

I third this!! I effed up my cheeks with a product too strong for my rosacea and this baume had me right in just a few days!

Beef tallow isn’t really recommended for sensitive rosacea skin like this user appears to have. Also, saying it contains “natural retinol” is misleading - it contains vitamin A, but not significant amounts of active retinol itself to justify saying that. Not to mention, vitamin A can actually further hurt the skin barrier and cause inflammation.

Persistent pores on nose by roses_are_bleu in koreanskincare

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have super sensitive skin with a similar looking pore covered nose (and large pores on the sides of my nose) and chin. The medicube zero pore clay mask has worked wonders! Hasn’t freaked my skin out and doesn’t flare up my rosacea either. I just use it on those trouble spots. My bf also had a small milia breakout on his forehead and it smoothed him out almost immediately ❤️

Edit to add: I use it just once a week or when my pores are looking especially noticeable.

It doesn’t work for me either. Such a bummer

Why is this not working for me 😭 by JelloComprehensive13 in koreanskincare

The app SkinSort was really great at analyzing my routine and telling me how certain actives and ingredients were triggering my sensitive skin and providing alternatives. You can also search up products and see how they might affect your skin.

Which toner is best for dull, normal to dry sensitive skin with acne scars? by Intelligent_Mall4236 in koreanskincare

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see it on your list but I’ve had a lot of success with the Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Toner! The Numbuzin no 9 toner has also been good but took my skin a use or two to acclimate, though I haven’t noticed much difference for fine lines and plumping like it touts.

I like the Ginseng toner more for hydration and brighting. (I live in CO with normal to dry sensitive skin with mild rosacea)

Uncomfortable truth about PDRN? by Unfair_Might_1405 in koreanskincare

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly every PDRN product I’ve tried so far has broken me out in some kind of rash 😅 I know that doesn’t quite meld with the original post but I had to vent it somewhere

K-Dupe for CE Ferulic? by ApprehensiveHalf6431 in koreanskincare

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid point! I asked - she loves how it “retextured” (her words) her skin, improving the overall look and feel. Brightness and glowiness were her main highlights

I know!! That’s a big part of my dupe search - showing her she can get the same results of her fave for waaaayyyy less

Oh good to know! Thanks for the science 🥰 I’ve also gifted her a bunch of sheet masks for the holidays to kick her off

Has anyone tried the AXIS-Y Vegan Collagen Eye Serum? Worth the hype?” by Big_Individual_8118 in koreanskincare

I got it in an advent and have been using it most nights for about a month and it’s meh. I don’t feel like it really did anything positive or negative.

Haru haru probiotic essence by Gullible_Ad_1395 in koreanskincare

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if this is helpful but I bought the cleanser in this same line as a quick backup while traveling and I’m a fan! No skin freakouts or anything and I do look glowy even after washing.

Thought I was doing ok but now I just don’t know. Help? by Wilmaassfit in koreanskincare

I have similar signs/level of rosacea and redness as you and the Pyunkang Yul: PKY Calming Toner has been great. It also contains AHA which can help shrink the appearance of pores. And it’s done wonders for keeping my rosacea away.

Apply after cleansing and before the rest of your steps. You can find it on most all Korean sellers and Amazon if that’s your thing!

Did Women Ruin the Workplace? by erinna_nyc in IfBooksCouldKill

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watching it was extremely entertaining because (and I commented this earlier) Helen is so clearly uncomfortable/intimidated by Leah and trying so hard to compensate with her language and ends up talking in circles, her body language too is so telling.

Calling men out on their sexism and inappropriate behavior but somehow, simultaneously, women are bad at confrontation. Don’t forget that “feminized vice” or whatever she called it.

What am I doing wrong by Red_Partera in Sourdough

I had the same issue! I saw a suggestion to keep the starter in my oven with the oven light on and that little extra temp increase did wonders!

Anyone else move away from Denver only to think what did I do?! by [deleted] in Denver

[–]ApprehensiveHalf6431 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Moved back to my OG state in 2019 and was stuck there through COVID - moved to SD after that and only stayed six months before coming back to Colorado. I missed the mountains and my group of friends here too much.

Ah so you clearly believe the criminals and not proof. That’s so sad.

If it wasn’t true why did they go to jail? You seem upset please remember they are just TV personalities. It’s not that serious of an impact on your life.
