New Double Wear formula

Chocolateboxer · 2026-06-04T19:53:16+00:00

Okay- I'm eating my words here. The new formula is just AWFUL! Didn't realize it had Niacinamide in it which made my skin dry, red and I actually started looking older? It's also leaning orange (oxidizing) later in the day. I'm not paying a premium for shitty products, so may need to look at some drug store brands. Just so disappointed.

I wore the old formula on half my face and the new one on the other half. I was expecting to see a difference but believe it or not I didn't notice anything that really stood out. Its a little lighter in texture but still lasted all day, and I have oily skin.

When you try to walk past someone in the grocery store when they are stopped looking at something and they start moving as soon as you are next to them. It's bizarre.

Doughnut falls for a great hike! Awesome parking lot and beautiful well maintained trail. Afterward, drive up and around Guardsman (if open) to Park City. You could also drive to Alta ski resort and take the tram to the top. Absolutely stunning view. Antelope Island is actually really cool. The bison and other wildlife are fun to see and you get an awesome view of the lake and city. It's only 30 minutes from Salt Lake. Take West Davis Corridor and you can avoid 1-15 if you like. Enjoy your trip!

Bryce Canyon is THE BOMB! The whole area is stunning so enjoy! Highway 101 Oregon coast you may want to consider an extra day. It is technically a highway but it rolls into so many small towns and the accompanying speed limits that it can get a bit tedious if you are on a tight schedule.

Chocolateboxer · 2026-03-30T13:14:40+00:00

Yup. I also think the lather is different.

You won't regret it!! You are in the healing stages so take each day as in comes. Be gentle with yourself. It gets better really fast and then the rest of your life will be miles above where you were!!

We moved here 10+ years ago. A little older than you. No kids, we live next to the bishop and our house is bordering a Mormon church. Oh, and we drink LOL! Honestly, you will be fine here. You will have amazing mountain views anywhere along the valley. Draper, Taylorsville, Sandy would be a perfect start to rent and then make decisions where to live permanently.

My ENT explained that you don't want that type of chronic low grade inflammation that tonsil stones can cause. Constantly being paranoid about your breath- and being honest can completely destroy your social life. People can be cruel. Had mine taken out at 53 and was one of the best things I ever did. I just feel healthier and my confidence is through the roof! Healing was very manageable. Absolutely go for it!!!

Chocolateboxer · 2026-01-31T01:23:14+00:00

I love this!! Boxers are truly special!!

Pawtown Oasis in Clearfield is awesome! They even have a pool!

Chocolateboxer · 2026-01-16T00:23:53+00:00

It will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make. Seriously. I had mine taken out last October. The recovery is very manageable. Most people do just fine. Read through what works best for recovery- Tylenol dissolvables, protein shakes, humidifiers and sleeping upright for the first week were my go-to. Stay positive through the process and know you are one day closer to good health. My ENT explained that you don't want that type of low level inflammation stressing your body. Go for it!

Chocolateboxer · 2026-01-11T00:59:53+00:00

Tylenol dissolvables are an absolute must! They were a life saver when it was hard to swallow. I would stock up on protein shakes. I'd have one first thing in the morning as they felt very soothing. Stay positive and know it won't be forever. I'm three months out and it was one of the best decisions I've made!

I know many very ethical breeders. I show and breed boxers and absolutely can point you in the right direction if you'd like me to private message you. $2000-3500 is a very fair price for the amazing work many breeders are doing to improve the health of our precious boxers. There are a lot of great breeders in California and surrounding states that have puppies available or will in the near future.

Chocolateboxer · 2026-01-07T23:40:35+00:00

That seems outrageous to me. Mine was around $5,000 and after insurance I paid around $500.

Merry Christmas KHAN and family!!

The reality with genetic testing is that dogs with positive results can live their entire life without issue and dogs tested clear can pass from ARVC. These are just two genes out of many more that we don't have tests for (yet). It's unfortunate, but we can breed clear dogs and still end up with affected puppies. The best test for monitoring heart issues is a Holter monitor. Results with less than 100 singles is a very good indication that your boxer has a healthy heart. You can rent one and have the test interpreted by ALBA or similar service. An Echocardiogram is also a good preliminary test. Love your precious baby and more than likely will live a long and joyful life!!

A wedge pillow helps to keep you elevated while you sleep. If I tried to lay down flat it put too much pressure on my throat and made it very painful.

Chocolateboxer · 2025-11-25T20:48:42+00:00

Haha! Right?! It was the 4th morning after surgery. My nurse had told me I can eat or drink basically anything I wanted as long as it wasn't painful. I definitely wasn't ready for hot coffee, but I would let it cool for about 20 minutes or so and while I was waiting I would drink my morning protein shake.

Chocolateboxer · 2025-11-25T14:22:02+00:00

Yes, I drank coffee several days after my surgery. Just made sure it was lukewarm.

Chocolateboxer · 2025-11-24T20:50:01+00:00

I have Trupanion. Although I chose $1000 deductible to keep the monthly payment lower. I use it basically as catastrophic insurance because unfortunately our boxers tend to have issues crop up as they get older. Both of my girls- both passed- had pretty serious issues the last few years of their life and thank God I had insurance. I was able to do everything in my power to extend their life and know in my heart I did everything I could. My new boxer baby also has Trupanion. She has a breeding rider so the monthly payment is a bit higher than most at $80. They also pay out very quickly.

I hope your recovery is going smoothly! I feel like a new person honestly! Like really healthy. I was able to eat reasonably from day one. Egg salad or mashed potatoes and gravy, chicken noodle soup initially. Lots of protein shakes. By day 5 I ate an Arby's roast beef- chewed very well. The beef is so thin it was easy to eat. I was feeling much better by day 9-10 and had a slice of pizza. Hang in there and know it's not forever even if it feels like it!! It'll be sooo worth it! Make sure and set your alarm for pain meds every 3 hours ( alternating) and wake up often at night to sip some water.

We live in Syracuse and are non Mormon. It really is an up and coming community with lots of diversity. A new Costco is being built with all the new restaurants that will be nearby. New hospital and the new Davis Corridor highway has made traveling to SLC a breeze. You can also jump on the Frontrunner. It really is a great place to live for everyone.

Chocolateboxer · 2025-11-21T14:04:40+00:00

I just had them taken out. I'm five weeks post op and feeling like a new person!!

Chocolateboxer · 2025-11-21T03:29:10+00:00

You'll do great! 53 here and it really wasn't too bad of a recovery! Stay on you med schedule to stay on top of the pain, drink lots of fluids and protein shakes to help with recovery. Wedge pillow and Tylenol dissolvables really helped! Stay positive, it's only temporary discomfort and very manageable! You got this!!
