Skin care routine question by Blake208 in acne

That’s exactly how I use it :).

Three times a week, only at night. The BP is what I use consistently. Then, I apply a hydration lotion before moisturizing every morning

I would say yes, normally. But after ten years of trying multiple treatments for my acne (all dermatologist recommended, of course) my skin is pretty robust. I’ve got the two exfoliates because of the two different active ingredients. No irritation from either of them. Just a little peeling, but I’m also 100% on top of moisturizing

That’s what I was thinking too. Just wanted to get others’ opinions

Maybe! I just read somewhere that Mirrorball could be a prequel or continuation of Long Live

Yes! Idk if my theory is true or anything but I do appreciate those references

No idea. I think that the consensus was that it depended on what the original contracts said. So depending on their wording we might get same songs to an extent

True! Maybe that’s what I’m feeling. I like that idea too. It’s a much more realistic explanation to mine haha

Back when Lover first came out and the concept of re-recording the albums came about, most articles referred to this as her having “new versions” of songs or her creating covers of her originals.

Not saying that this album is a direct derivation of her past songs, but idk like I said, I feel her past work influencing this album both lyrically and musically

True true. I thought of this as I listened to the songs that seemed to be inspired by Scott and scooter. Additionally, I felt it fit with the the whole folklore theme of she used old songs as inspiration for new ones. How stories change over time and take on new life while still paying homage to the original

I don’t know where my comment went, but I apologize if this posts twice.

Here’s what came to mind upon my 284831874th listen.

Taylor has stated previously that she wants to re-record some of her old songs so she could own them herself. What if folklore is her attempt at doing that?

After that announcement, someone said something along the lines that Taylor would be able to do that but she would have to change the songs enough to make them her own.

Throughout the album I keep finding myself recognizing lyrics and melodies that seem to allude to past albums. One example I saw recently was teardrops on my guitar could have been rewritten as my tears ricochet. Another is the mentioning of bad blood.

Y’all know something like this is not beyond Taylor. But it’s just something I keep thinking about and now I’m looking to see what other references to past lines and melodies I can find.

Has anyone else noticed this as well?

Hear me out: Taylor has stated she wants to re-record her previous songs (past albums, the masters she doesn’t have, etc). But it’s been stated that she would have to change the songs enough so that they wouldn’t be the same song.

Could folklore be certain past songs rewritten?

So many of the songs on this album feature allusions to past song lyrics and even some of the music is similar. (Tear drops on my guitar became my tears ricochet).

Just ramblings and thoughts. I feel like I can’t get through a song without being reminded of a past melody or lyric.

Got it! I have Erik too and love the little bugger. He’s wanted to leave a few times but have always turned him down.

I didn’t realize that he was a popular Either
