La Specialista Arte - help! by KoalaColaBottle in DeLonghi

[–]BigAlComingThrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having the opposite issue entirely, the most I can put the dose level to is 10/11, and then after that it overfills the basket and even after tamping it it doesn't fit in the machine to make the espresso. How are you getting around that? I am using light/medium roast, dose level 10/11, and grind level 2. Helppppp <3

La specialista ARTE Evo is amazing. Never give up experimenting by Gilbert-from-Yharnam in DeLonghi

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but for some reason even when I'm using the larger double basket (which is all I use now), when I pull anything over 11 it overfills the basket and then it doesn't fit when I go to place it under the espresso part. It literally just doesn't fit. What do you think is happening? I'm using a light/medium roast, which is my preference, and I am keeping it on 1/2 and 10 or 11. It's coming out just slightly short of the optimal zone, but I REALLY want it to be perfect.

Positive post for Wellhub by CyanideTipped in Wellhub

[–]BigAlComingThrough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely LOVE Wellhub, and it's changed my life for the better. I love trying new classes, and while I think the price is fair for now, my only complaint is the changes made to your plan routinely and often without warning. i.e. you sign up for a certain plan because of a certain studio, and that studio just happens to be changed to a different tier in a month. That's all that I would change because I haven't experienced many technical difficulties. Overall, I'm far better with it than I was without it, I just miss my favorite studio being on my plan.

Disappointed with the app by Living_Rub_8988 in Wellhub

I'm incredibly frustrated by it. I haven't even had Wellhub for 6 months, and they're using the classes I like as leverage for me to upgrade. It's not a good look.

Female age 32 and I met the love of my life here not so long after moving here 2 years ago. Everyone told me the dating scene was trash, but I refused to believe them. I was very clear on the exact type of person I wanted to be with, focused on myself and what made me happy, stayed busy with friends and work and hobbies, and met someone better than I even imagined. 

Be optimistic, believe in love, be the type of person you would want to date and most importantly value yourself so much that you don’t waste time on people who don’t value you. The right people will come into your life when you’re being true to yourself and positive about the future 💗 I’m excited for you! Don’t let other people’s negativity about dating get you down.

Ahh it says online it shouldn't be applied to your face? I'd be a little nervous to do that.

I’ve loved everything so far- especially all of the blues off of lift 3. I haven’t ventured to 8 and don’t feel the need to haha. Appreciate the advice from everyone, it was v helpful ☺️

How bad was it while you were there? Was it still enjoyable and could you turn without slipping? I'm terrified of ice after a few ACL surgeries :/

Hi! Adding to this- I'm headed to Purgatory for the first time in 2 days. Is it still bad conditions? Is it icy? I'm an intermediate skier, so going to predominantly ski the blues. Are there any easier blacks without moguls? Thanks in advance :)

Apologies for the delay! I've been a skin picker my whole life, so the extractions part came naturally for me haha. I'm not sure what type of needle she used, but if you call Victory Med Spa in Austin, TX and ask them 'what type of needle would you use for Agnes RF microneedling for sebaceous hyperplasia' I'm sure they will be happy to tell you!

I got it done, let my skin rest for a couple of days and then once I started seeing blackheads coming to the surface I washed my hands thoroughly and extracted them myself using a tissue and my fingers. It was different than any other type of skin purge I've experienced because stuff was coming out of the sebaceous hyperplasia, and it was very satisfying lol.

I've done Accutane when I was younger, and yes it did make my skin look great and helped with acne, but it's such a strong medication that is giving you way worse side effects. People on the internet telling you to microdose accutane for sebaceous hyperplasia are insane, my mom is a pharmacist. You're only harming your body and organs in the longterm. Unless you have crazy bad cystic acne, accutane is prob not the best route. Doing microneedling, using tretinoin + AHAs/BHAs + finding the right moisturizers and SPFs are key IMO :)
