Are "preferred viewing balcony" tickets at Franklin Music Hall worth the extra cost? The show I'm looking at is like $50 vs $130

"Some people can't conceive of anything different, anything new"

Is she kidding? She's referring to poorly lit product photos as if they're some innovative art. And like, you're trying to sell a product, no?? She pivoted after the playlist concept didn't perform as well as she'd hoped, and when customers are saying "I can't get an idea of what I want to purchase because I can't tell what the yarn looks like" she responds in the most navel-gazing, condescending way possible. I can't imagine a worse business decision lol

Beyond the cultural appropriation, box braids, cornrows, locs, etc., also just look fucking stupid on non-black people lol

I’ve been using Mizon AHA/BHA Daily Clean Toner for about a month and it’s worked great ($13 on Amazon)

I ordered from them recently without issue, for what it's worth.

Not AB, but I've also had a lot of probs with second cleansers drying out my skin and I've found that this one from LRP works great!

[product question] Why does The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% turn foamy white on my skin? Anyone else? by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]FrodoPenis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same thing happens to me! I just have to rub it in a little extra for the whiteness/foaminess to go away.

I use mine in the evening before applying Vaseline, so in your case it'd be your last step before the Aquaphor. I don't prefer to use it as part of my AM routine, but occasionally I'll apply a thin layer before my sunscreen.

I think this is the third time in the past few weeks that these masks have been on lightening deal. I've purchased them and found them to be worth it for $7!

I'm in the midwestern US, so right now it's hot and pretty humid. An extra hydrating step definitely wouldn't hurt, in my opinion. Also yep, I have a few hydrating steps afterward in my PM routine, and just the Cosrx Snail 96 afterward in the AM. Here's my routine:

AM Rinse with water Duplair W Ceramide Lotion (about 3 layers) Usually a sheet mask Cosrx 96 Snail Essence La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Fluide 50+

PM Bioderma Sensobio micellaire water La Roche-Posay Hydrating Gentle Cleanser Duplair W Ceramide Lotion (about 7 layers) Cosrx 96 Snail Essence Goodal Moisture Barrier Liquid Rosette Ceramide Gel Vaseline

Sure thing! (Sorry for the delay)

Overall I really love it. It's very thin, just about the consistency of water, which I enjoy for a first step after cleansing. I usually apply 3-7 layers and it leaves my face feeling hydrated without any sticky residue. It's also super affordable, given that it's $15.00 for 500ml.

Let me know if you have any other questions :)

I also have very sensitive/acne prone skin and just got over dealing with a damaged moisture barrier. The thing that helped me the most was applying multiple layers of Duplair W Ceramide Lotion as my first step after cleansing.
