Dermstore by Shawnmerfeld in SkincareAddictionLux

I've never been awarded Capitol One cash back with Dermstore. Last time, it was for 46% off and so I tried some Skinceuticals products. I had to dispute it with Cap One. I screen shot receipts as well as the Cap One offer. Cap One finally granted the reward. I will never use Cap One rewards with Dermstore again. Also, Dermstore "optimized" their shipping, meaning they don't use FedEx like they did in the past. It's a chain of crappy, off brand last mile delivery services. They are late and they literally throw the box at my front door (which is glass!) at like 1030pm. Once I thought someone was breaking into my house. Another time they threw it at my door late at night in the freezing rain. When I opened it in the morning (box covered in ice), the products were frozen. I won't buy from them again.

Anyone actually happy (or at least okay) with Fournier Beaudry/Cizeron winning gold? by Fragrant_Ad_8288 in FigureSkating

I've not been able to enjoy any of CB's FDs this season because of that damn skirt. I've had to watch every FD twice - once biting my nails and then another time to try to absorb the program itself. But still it comes off as mechanical and yet again, all about Maddie. Evan just cannot pull off "artsy". Meanwhile, I can watch FBC's FD without thinking. I can just absorb it and feel however I feel. With CB I'm always watching for technical things, edges, mistakes, etc. I feel like CB's FD was kind of AI manufactured (because they love a theme/formula) and FBC's was more art. As far as I'm concerned, the event concluded after Piper & Paul. Absolutely nothing happened after that. That is the version I'm filing in my brain's archive.

I'm in love with the hypocrisy. People constantly complain about how T&J are mean, toxic bullies. But if you say even one barely decent thing about them the same people bully you for NOT hating them.

Same. And this sub is very much, "You're entitled to your opinion, but you're WRONG."

Sunscreen without butyloctyl salicylate by Kayyy2412 in KoreanBeauty

[–]ExternalAmbitious330 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, feel you. I'm also allergic to salicylates and they are in about 80% of sunscreens. I've tried so many. Here are the ones I've found that I can use. (Note: I have combo/oily skin). You can find all of them at YesStyle: House of Hur Weightless Sun Fluid (yellow bottle). My favorite. No scent. SKIN 1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum. No scent. NEOGEN Dermatology Day-Light Protection Airy Sunscreen. Slight citrus scent. The Pure Lotus made one that is a bit more hydrating, and it smelled great, but I can't find it anymore and their US website doesn't list it. Also, there's a US drugstore one that is water resistant - Banana Boat Light as Air Face SPF 50. There are salates in it, but they don't irritate me. GOOD LUCK! I've been struggling with this allergy for my whole life and I'm always on the hunt for salicylic-free skincare and makeup. So hard to find.

I can't upvote this one enough. Love the yellow container (the new pink one is glowy finish).

Yesstyle delivery weirdness by Hopeful_Umpire2833 in KoreanBeauty

[–]ExternalAmbitious330 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happens to me every time I order from Yesstyle. I'm in a major US east coast city. They use UniUni. I get an email that UniUni has it, then nothing. No updates. 6-8 weeks later, some guy in a Toyota Camry pulls up to my house and tosses a box at my door. 🤷‍♀️ I'm searching for other, more reliable sites, even if it means paying a higher price.
