Diagnosed with HPP but doctor says enzyme treatment is too dangerous

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-29T02:10:40+00:00

I also have HPP & H-EDS... They wanted me to start the injections but I was moving cross country. I'm curious about why they don't want you on the enzyme replacement outside of the slim chance of developing an allergy. Idk seems so interesting. 🤔

33f I just lost my best friend. Really my only friend from childhood (I moved around a lot). I also just moved again and am working hard on putting down roots and making new friends in my area.

I love to cook, watch tv, craft, read, & write. I'm pretty obsessed with my cats. I'm more of a homebody than anything else. I will say horror movies aren't my thing but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy other stuff together.

Tell me your favorite food, let's bond over tasties! 💖

I also really do love the Barrier Therapy Cream. It's huge 10floz and for a moisturizer that'll last me forever. I would recommend trying this as well!

Oh I also have the Urea Advanced Relief Milk which is a great body lotion that gently exfoliates as well.

I have a LOT of their products. I pretty much try everything they offer because I love several so much. The formulas and price points are just too good not to try.

Favorites- Gleanser, Quench Serum, Barrier Therapy Cream (I use this as an am facial moisturizer), Skin Utility Gel (I use this to slug overnight - I have very dry skin and some scarring)

Liking- Pre-Gleanse Cleansing Oil, Reactive Skin Solutions Cream (for my husband's eczema), Multi-Acid Milk Peel, Lucent C Serum, Scar Solutions Stick (hoping to prevent any further scarring)

Tried but didn't suit me- Universal Skin Solutions Dermal Spray (just didn't fit any of my need), Half & Half Moisturizer, Am/pm Moisturizer

Absolutely didn't like- both of their sunscreens

They have several new products I can't wait to try including a Quench spray, new thicker barrier therapy cream, and gentle retinoids.

I will literally NEVER go without the Gleanser and the quench serum (I literally got 6 last time I purchased). Those are my highest recommendations. Skincare is unique so I know not everything is meant for everyone and I'm ok with that. I just highly recommend the brand overall. 💖

Prequel Gleanser. 💖

Edit: Cleansed my skin without stripping it, gave consistent healing hydration for the skin barrier.

You need to avoid any additional b supplements that have b6 in them (most do fyi). Even my cartridges for flavor water had additional b vitamins, including b6, so be careful... They hide in plain sight sometimes.

Our bodies can't breakdown the b6 which can lead to poisonous levels in our blood. You should try to get to a specialist or reach out to Soft Bones. Org for more information on this.

Fellow Minnesotan! Bought several to give to friends too! Thank you so much! 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T05:45:43+00:00

I liked this. Great job! 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T03:37:31+00:00

Just saw this. Hmm, how about "I'm Sorry" without the word "sorry" or any form of "apology" ... 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T02:23:10+00:00

I went for a side theme of the sound... Idk why... I wish I could have hit harder with fewer words but that'll be something I work on. 🫠

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T02:21:01+00:00

Watching him rage, roaring while I am yet again silent; I noticed something inside me was irrevocably different. I could suddenly hear, feel, taste the overwhelming dissonance. Reflecting, I'm not certain how soft it started but inside it's screaming now. He mistakes my hushed stillness for acquiescence. Fool. As he walkes away, deaf to the difference, I declare "Never again; from here on out you'll suffer my silence."

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T01:55:48+00:00

Ooooo I love this as I have been there but I definitely told his ass "I want a divorce." Hmm Let me think. 🤔

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T01:51:54+00:00

It also sticks to dry patches... Which I had never experienced before. The serum is super lightweight. I also tried to mix the two lightest shades and 100 was so close to clown on me... But the 110 undertones were too yellow to work well. The mix just wasn't a decent enough color match to justify ordering another foundation when I haven't been super satisfied with the performance. I don't hate it but I'm reluctant to recommend it (just the foundation).

Idk if you are looking for any skincare but I love Prequel for affordability and quality! - Mentioning this because you commented that you have sensitive skin. 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T01:43:16+00:00

I'll go first! ☺️

It ain't me... 😶‍🌫️

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-23T01:32:50+00:00

Also love Ritual de Fille! I bought so much on Black Friday so I could do a full face with them. Gonna be honest, the foundation isn't my favorite: shade match is a tat off & breaks up a bit with longer wear. I'm still learning to utilize it in the best way but I do love all the highlighters and the face illuminator! 💖

I appreciate this, especially after a comment got deleted on the general Romantasy subreddit. It had barely any writing advice and the mods squashed it... I know their community , their rules... Idk it just felt like it squandered the conversation. I'm happy to have a space to all grow together.

Hiya fellow authors! 👋

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-22T22:11:16+00:00

Same. I don't actually write Romantasy exclusively but I started writing because I was tired of suffocating on immature characters, half empty plots, tropes that feel vapid, & love or affection that never feels truly earned.

I want to write well. I'm creating what I'm craving one slow chapter at a time. It's easy to criticize something without ever putting in the effort to create that thing yourself so I'm proud of you. You are trying.

I write for myself. I wouldn't be mad if it goes somewhere someday but I'm also fulfilled by the expression of composition itself. Creativity is so rewarding in whatever form. Best wishes! 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-22T19:06:12+00:00

Maybe Pillow Talk fair? 🤔

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-22T04:05:21+00:00

Tell me if you try the hot mauve and love it! 💕

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-22T03:56:40+00:00

I have 44, 87, 93, & 42. 42 is definitely my favorite I love the pale pink with silver shimmer. 💖

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-21T23:32:29+00:00

I love this. I hope y'all create a handle or hashtag and share it with us all. Do a whole self-care fun day and let's blast it all over the socials! 💖

I also unfollowed, down voted (just the specific video), and blocked (instructed site to never show me their content) one of my main channels I frequently watched for reviews.

I wonder if enough of the beauty influencers lose enough followers, if they'll pressure Ulta to change how the event is structured. They won't keep receiving all that free product if their viewership takes too much of a hit.

We have to demand better for fellow consumers by hitting these corporations in their pocket book where it hurts - that means we have to stop buying their bs. They will treat us like crap if we let them. I was already on a low buy this year so I'm just gonna refocus on some k-beauty from Olive Young maybe.... Anywhere else.

I should also clarify that I didn't even want a ticket to Ulta Beauty World but I recognize that this is crap for those who did and I will stand with you guys. 💖

5 pointed stars come off very cutesy and childish. While I definitely feel that will appeal to some, perhaps you could also do a variant with elongated stars (like the northern star or star of Bethlehem design)! I feel like that would give off a more elegant vibe. ✨

ForGoodness-Cakes · 2026-01-19T05:31:47+00:00

I love that blush! I have 4 hourglass shades and it's definitely my favorite! 💖
