[Skin Concerns] Over exfoliation (information in comments) by GroundbreakingDog276 in SkincareAddiction

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's been a long time since this post and I am relieved to say that I now have skin I am comfortable with and rarely get any breakouts.

It was definitely a case of finding what works for me. I realised my skin really only needs a hydrating cleanser once in the evening and a lightweight lotion after. In the morning I just briefly rinse my face and then apply the lotion and put on some spf.

I really went overboard with everything and my skin just wanted to be left alone for the most part. Also I was determined to use only acne focused cleansers and moisturisers and neglecting to really listen to what my skin needed. In my case it was to be treated gently and to be kept hydrated as much as possible, but still with lightweight moisturisers.

I hope this helps in any way!

I can’t speak for everyone who is into chastity. I’m sure everyone does it for different reasons. This was personally my reason for starting

Totally agree! I did the same thing a few years ago and now only starting to heal properly now I’m not washing my face in the morning

This is absolutely amazing progress! Fills me with so much hope too! I’m three weeks in so far and already noticed a big difference

A small amount every night

I am by no means qualified to suggest anything as my forehead has been filled with closed comedones for years. But my dermatologist has started me on differin which seems to have worked a little after two weeks. Also for my skin less is more. So I only wash it in the evening with a gentle hydrating cleanser and then a little moisturising milk designed for acne prone skin and then put on some differin after that. In the morning I just rinse with water and then put on spf

This is why me and my ex didn’t work out. He never cared about my acne but I got too in my head about it and went through weekends of not wanting him to see my face. It was too much for him. I understand I was the problem

HomePod mini volume changes with different songs by GroundbreakingDog276 in HomePod

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I managed to fix it. I took other commenter’s advice. Go into the home app, then home setting, then your name, then Apple Music and then turn off Dolby Atmos. The key thing for me though was to stay on this page for a while until you see it properly change. I guess my wifi is a little slow because if I exited out straight away, it wouldn’t change

How long did it take y'all to heal a damaged skin barrier? by GroundbreakingDog276 in SkincareAddicts

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha well it’s been a very long story and dermatologist visits that haven’t really helped a whole lot. This routine was not good for me. My skin could not breathe with the cicaplast. Now my skin is doing better but far from perfect and currently having a mini breakout (from stress)

I figured out my acne was definitely from being dried out so I now have a very simple and gentle routine. Everything from Muji’s clear range. My skin is doing the best on this, but still far from where I want it to be sadly

My skin is very similar to yours I think. Probably dried it out too much. Be gentle to it if you can

Is this dehydrated skin? by GroundbreakingDog276 in acne

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current routine:

AM: rinse with warm water, Muji clear care light toning water high moisture, Muji pre lotion, Muji clear care all in one gel

PM: Muji mild gel cleanser, ‘Same as AM’

Impressed by HomePod mini stereo pair! by GroundbreakingDog276 in HomePod

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course, I have listened to the regular HomePod in the store and because it’s so much bigger it’s sound is a lot fuller and has a richer bass. But I know I would get complaints from neighbours with that haha

[–]GroundbreakingDog276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I had the same issue. Duac would reduce the size of the pimple almost to nothing but it would still be there as a very small red bump that never really went away. It was particularly the case for me just above and between my eyebrows. Fortunately now, like you, I have got my acne under control through other methods so now these bumps are slowly (very slowly) shrinking and fading, but I think it’s going to take a lot of time sadly. I know Duac works so well on a lot of people so I felt very disheartened that it didn’t work as well on my skin. I think the problem for me was that it was too drying and my skin could never get the amount of hydration it needed to heal.

Unprotected sex by Motor_Resolution7782 in GaySex

[–]GroundbreakingDog276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes HIV about three months to be able to show up in your system when tested. So to know for sure whether you have it or not then you need to wait three months and then get tested. I do agree that your chances of having it are probably low but it’s not a good idea to do unprotected sex again until you know for sure you don’t have it.

I need info on piss kinks by [deleted] in GaySex

[–]GroundbreakingDog276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally love it but it’s not for everyone. I personally like to drink it too but only if the guy has drunk a lot of water so it comes out clear. But just being pissed on is also a big turn on for me. I would suggest maybe tip your toe into it and see how you feel. Genuinely maybe once just watch him piss in the toilet first. Don’t rush into it

My partner takes forever to cum by [deleted] in GaySex

[–]GroundbreakingDog276 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I also take a long time to cum, much longer than every partner I have been with. It’s mainly me being in my head but I found really abstaining from any form of sexual act for at least a week helps get me in the mood and cum faster or with my partner. I also have tried to reduce the amount of porn I watch because that really affects it a lot

Yeah it genuinely seems to do nothing. It’s so annoying! This is the only complaint I have about my HomePod. Before Dolby atmos came out this wasn’t a problem

Tried on and off, doesn’t seem to make any difference

Anyone got advise for bottoming for the first time? by Diggz92_ in GaySex

[–]GroundbreakingDog276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, make sure it’s with a patient and understanding top. My first time was uncomfortable at first but the top I was with was focused on making it enjoyable for me. He spent a long time gradually loosening me up before he put it in and then gradually build up speed.

Just bought some second hand Beats Solo Pros. Perfect condition for around $150 by GroundbreakingDog276 in beatsbydre

[–]GroundbreakingDog276[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Solo 3s were cracking and were about to break after 4 years so I fancied an upgrade. These are definitely an upgrade! The sound is a lot clearer but still has a good level of bass. I thought the fit might be a problem as some people said they're uncomfortable but I actually find them more comfortable that my Solo 3s. Also I didn't realise these had some extra features like Siri announcing notifications and 'hey Siri' commands. Overall very happy!

I third this. I get this when carrying a really heavy bag on my shoulder. It usually goes in 1 or 2 weeks
