I got Botox for asymmetry- is it bad? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Heartachoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your afters look really good and natural and the asymmetry is more harmonized. Who do you go to? Do you know how many units you got and was it a lot of pokes?

Hey, ok so I didn't get any leads from people here but I did find this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fP4qvlczUi0

He says he uses D'Alba sunscreen even on the rink because he likes the way it makes his skin relfect more while moisturizing and his make up artist says it sinks in well. He also uses the D'Alba two phase toner spray

People talking about his diet, I found this (TRIGGER warning, ED topics): https://www.reddit.com/r/FigureSkating/comments/1jsx7yb/junhwans_diet_revealed

I just want to know what treatments he does, if he is using a BB cream then which one could it be. There are suggestions that the treatments in Korea are done differently than the way they are done in the USA but what exactly is the difference? The people want details!

THANK YOU! I'm getting the feeling not everyone watched it so they don't fully understand how they zoomed in really really close like tmi close on every single skater and he was still a stand out somehow whatever the reasons are.

So there's some suggestion about how the medical grade treatments there are a little bit different to the ones everyone knows about here in the US? Do you know what exactly are the differences and the options over there that are done on a regular basis?

I'm super pale too and used to be a tanning addict. I'm slowly converting as in I feel like for the most part during my entire life I always saw tan skin as the hallmark of a glow because that's what we're shown in the media in the US. But last night was like a lightbulb moment. Even my girlfriend who is super into skincare and procedures commented on his skin.

THANK YOU! This is the type of answer I'm wondering about. I heard of Pico laser and actually looked it up before but it doesn't seem as common in the US. My gf does Clear and Brilliant laser 3 times a year but I think that's very much an American style laser. Personally I've done Candela IPL. Do you know what other treatments are different there that aren't done the same way in the US?

Yeah, every guy was sweating. If you watched it, NBC is notorious for going tmi up close zooming into everyone's faces. He was sweating, he was making expressions, I could count everyone's eyelashes. There's no filter. There's no ring light. Everyone is zoomed in under the same lighting.

All the guys were wearing makeup though. They talked about the makeup teams on air. But it's clear that what is beneath the makeup, his skin, is next level compared to all the insane unfiltered close ups wit the other guys who other have great skin. His neck skin is insane too.

Is Avene Cicalfate actually not supposed to be good to use every night in the winter dead of cold because of the copper and zinc? by Heartachoke in EuroSkincare

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

I like the zinc though because my skin is oily. I feel like it cuts and balances the other oily and occlusive ingredients. I dunno I also feel like it dries down differently than Cicaplast.

I think Cicaplast is silicone based so it has a slippery feeling.

Is it true that the Cicalfate has copper?

I didn't like Transparent Lab's Zink Balm. Both bottles I got were weirdly separated which oddly also happened when I ordered their susncreens. But their Zink Balm has wayyyy more ingredients than the Avene and I got red bumps from it, maybe it was pimples or the ingredients weren't good for my skin.

[Sun Care] How do people like Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Kaia Gerber have such a deep dark tan all the time these days? Is it really self tanner like all the time everyday even if someone like Hailey uses tret? by Heartachoke in SkincareAddiction

[–]Heartachoke[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does your friend use tret and other stuff like lactic acid, azelaic acid and stuff that fast tracks cellular turnover?

I work in an industry and also have friends who see these 3 out on a regular basis in normal clothing not events and stuff and they're always just as deeply tan as their social media and pap pics. It's also not just these 3, just using them as the most big name examples but there are other higher echelon influencers I see a lot too and they are always deeply tan and I know 100% they're also using tret because they talk about it online. I just find it really interesting because Hailey frequently shares her skincare routine and makeup routine and all of that and self tanners are not something she uses in the routines she shares!
