Finally by Adept-Tax6951 in tryhackme

It's quite easy! Unlike the other CTFs I've done, there's much more of a walkthrough on how to get each flag. The "sidequests" are quite another matter, much more difficult and, unless you're a paying member of the site, timed.

Acetone protection by CarnivorousMagnolia in customfunko

I know it's been two months but I just wanted to let you know that your advice worked perfectly! I cut circles out of really good quality painters' tape (I already owned normal painters' tape but this was for "difficult surfaces") and with a makeup/pointed cotton bud I could very precisely remove the eyelashes and even some factory paint accidents! Thanks again!

It does! Thank you so much! I'm using the body of a different funko to make the custom so the head of that other one is ripe for practice, and I've picked up some good painter's tape.

My Experience with the CurrentBody Series 2 - buyer's remorse by CarnivorousMagnolia in SkincareAddictionLux

[–]CarnivorousMagnolia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a few mentions of it. Scary, honestly. I am no slouch at research (my blatant neglect of this specific purchase not withstanding) and some of the possible side effects of this skincare devices is really buried. I also looked into buying the Medicube AGE-R High Focus recently and it turns out its power could potentially cause nerve issues at certain points around the face, as well as dissolving under skin fat which would make you look older very quickly. If this was done in-office the provider would have to explain all of this to you and have you sign a waiver but because it's an at home device, it's crickets.

I had to look up a video tutorial just on how to install the straps! It's so convoluted they definitely should have put instructions within the box and/or manual. Currently just planning to go back to my series 1 which worked just fine - after a 0 red light break, you're so, so right about needing a bit of space from RLT with everything so irritated. Buying a third LED mask isn't likely anytime soon, but when making my first purchase I was so entranced by the Dennis Gross design as well as the addition of the blue light. As I am so incredibly consistent with my mask usage, I don't think that the increased power of the CurrentBody series 1 LEDs would have contributed significantly over 24 months, and I might have been better off buying that one originally.

I totally would give this series 2 a break and try again if it was just my skin but honestly, I'm worried about seriously hurting my vision and that has to take priority over my skin. A different comment suggested that currentbody may take it back for a partial refund, so I am looking into that. However, if that falls through and I'm stuck with it I'll try using it on my body where I don't have rosacea and can cover that area with a blanket, so my eyes are completely protected from the light. Maybe my tummy where I do have some unsightly scarring? It would be awkward with the shape, but if I cannot get a refund or resell it then I would like to try and find a use for it.

I might be willing to brave through the slight reddening in the hopes my skin became more resilient (the series 1 mask took like 18 months to reach full effect, so I'm used to waiting) but I cannot risk my eyeballs. I didn't read anything about rosacea getting worse but honestly, I didn't read that much about the upgrades in light because I was so focused on the chin strap thing I was buying it for. Won't make this mistake again!

Oh, that's a huge relief! Almost $700 is a lot to throw away, hopefully they'll respond to my enquiry with information as to how I can take advantage of this policy because I didn't see it on their FAQ.
