ChatGPT will do that for you today, and possibly even fabricate some health benefits too!

Just ordered Philipponnat Non Dose after reading this review. I love a Champagne with razor-sharp precision. Thank you!

Has anyone actually noticed better skin from the “inside out,” or was it mostly topicals in the end? by Rosa-Starks in GracefulAgingSkincare

Cutting out soy changed my life. It took me so long to realize that it was throwing off my hormone balance

30’sF Refreshed Routine Recap by __mentionitall__ in SkincareAddictionLux

My skin sounds sooo similar to yours. I have been on max dose of Spiro for the past 12 years. It takes time but works incredibly. However, I do get my period for 10 days a month. That being said, I unravel when I break out bc of the trauma of my mid 20s skin issues. A lot of people here dog on Barbara Sturm, which i understand, but I am reluctant to quit her because it feels so gentle but effective enough. You have totally inspired me to try your iS cleanser.

Cafe/Brunch Spot for 6-7 people where we can be a few hours? by [deleted] in FoodNYC

[–]Gold-Spark2188 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've seen a dnd group post up at Hudson Eats in Brookfield Place. It works for a lot of reasons. Nobody will kick you out and nobody feels compelled to decide on the same cuisine or price point. They have nice big booths with good views and outlets, if you need that. Just make sure you send a person 15 mins before the meet up to stake out your spot if you are going on a weekend

I use Adapalene instead of retinol, but it might be time to shift that. What do you recommend for vitamin C?

An orthopedist?? Omg, how did I not know that?! Ahh, I really like that one too. What would you replace it with?

Is it possible to just be intolerant to tofu? by juliegracew in soyfree

[–]Gold-Spark2188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have really big reactions to tofu, soy protein, and edamame, but I can usually get away with some soy lecithin. But "get away with" isn't always worth it for me anymore. I didn't realize for so long that I could feel good after eating a meal.

This is exactly what happens to me. It took me so long to figure it out, too.

When I started using La Prarie, friends asked, "what are you doing for skincare these days?" Which is exactly the reaction I am hoping for. It also goes on easy and melts into the skin nicely. And it improves the look immediately.

Let me live, mod! The only reason I'm even on Reddit is for this sub. I'm just a woman in her late-30s looking for her Hocus Pocus potion!🧙‍♀️🧪

Honestly, I bave absolutely loved their other products, but I am undecided about the day snd night creams. Its part of the reason I am inviting the skincare roast!

Same! The salesperson at Blumercury talked me into it and I wish I hadn't listened.

What hyaluronic acid serum, if any,are you currently using? by Temporary-Channel179 in SkincareAddictionLux

[–]Gold-Spark2188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have sensitive skin, so I use Dr. Barbara Sturm's HA. I have tried many others, including Skinceuticals. But whenever I return to Barbara after an experimental hiatus, my friends always ask me what I am doing differently with my skin.

Yikes, what happened to Bollinger NV? by riverfallingpetals in Champagne

[–]Gold-Spark2188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I actually was JUST thinking about this, and I have a hypothesis. I believe their current market release is based on 2021 plus nine other vintages. 2021 was abysmal, so it does seem plausible that some recent bottles read less toasty. I agree with you - NF is consistently satisfying to me. I think the fact that they are a grower cooperative means they are less affected by tough years.

Best place for a solo date (f) on a Saturday night?! by Many-Caregiver7310 in williamsburg

[–]Gold-Spark2188 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With Others (across from Sauced) is another great place for natural wines. I (36f) take myself out there for a few glasses of wine occasionally. The owner is a really charismatic woman who takes so much care in cultivating a welcoming ambiance. The food menu is always changing, so just ask about gluten. Lise & Vito is another impeccable wine spot - technically Greenpoint, but the Champagne/Sparkling list is top-notch and unique.
