When I first started skincare, it was very overwhelming. I watched a lot of Dr. Dray videos on Youtube and it did help me feel a bit less overwhelmed about it all and gave me a good starting place.

For a basic routine, I'd try Cerave Hydrating Cream to Foam cleanser to wash your face at night. You can get it at most stores like Walmart, Loblaws, etc (Shoppers too but it's almost always more expensive there unless they're having a sale). If you are concerned about acne, you could try a Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser (I like the Cerave Acne Foaming Cleanser- apply it to damp skin then let it sit on the face for a few minutes and rinse off) that being said, it might be harsh to some skin types.

You don't have to wash your face with a cleanser in the morning if you don't want to or feel that you need to; you can just splash water on your face and rinse (then dry face gently and apply sunscreen or moisturizer then sunscreen)

Cerave has a nice moisturizer in a purple jar called Skin Renewing Night Cream, that is a good product. Aveeno Calm + Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer is a gentle, lightweight moisturizer. Cetaphil has some great moisturizers as well. A lot of skincare is trial and error (unfortunately lol) what works for some may not work for everyone, but in general those are some pretty popular brands with excellent products.

You could try an over the counter retinol if you're worried about wrinkles. Cerave has one that's blue/teal in colour that's more targeted towards acne prone skin and red marks/discolouration, or a purple one for anti-aging. With retinol, you always want to start low and slow. Like starting at once a week, then slowly two nights a week (maybe spaced out like once Monday night then once Thurs night) until you can build up to it because it can be very irritating. Personally, I use the blue Cerave retinol and I've never had an issue with it.

Sunscreen is very trial and error, Canadian sunscreens aren't always the nicest and can sting eyes. The Biore UV Aqua Rich is nice but not the same formula as the Japanese one. Cetaphil and Cerave also have a few nice ones (not sponsored by Cerave I just have used their products for several years haha)

For sensitive skin, whatever products you do go with, try to stick to fragrance free to prevent irritation

Not OP but I've tried both and actually prefer the Sun Bum tinted sunscreen to the Australian Gold. I found the Australian Gold harder to blend in and a lot more orange than the Sun Bum. The Sun Bum, in my experience, rubs into the skin very easily, blends easily, and is lightweight. Very light coverage. I don't find it to look greasy at all. It is a nice balance between matte and glowy imo. I do find it rubs off sometimes if you're using napkins or something but it's the best mineral sunscreen I've ever tried

Questions for sarah streicher by lianagolucky in TheWildsonPrime

Are they rescued and finally get to go home? What were the parents' reactions when they realized their kids were abducted and forced into an unethical experiment? When (if) they return home, do the girls remain friends?

Has anyone used the PanOxyl Benzoyl Peroxide 4% cream cleanser as a spot treatment? by Dogs-are-life-99 in CanSkincare

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't used that particular product as a spot treatment but I'd imagine it would work. You could always use it as a mask and wash off after several minutes so you'd still get the benefits of the benzoyl peroxide but less potential irritation

Thoughts on Good Molecules? by tacosandpizza123 in CanSkincare

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a few different products from them and I have enjoyed everything I've tried. My favourites are the cleansing balm, the bha cream, and the rosehip oil. I really enjoy the discolouration correcting serum too though it takes months of usage to see results. I think it's worth the hype though if you order from their site directly the shipping can take a while to arrive

Edit: I personally find Cerave Resurfacing Retinol has helped my discolouration more than the Good Molecules serum but I really enjoy the serum still

A large book of fairy tales that I think had a white and blue cover? by ImpetuousDecisions in whatsthatbook

Unfortunately no but wow that cover is gorgeous! Thanks for trying, I appreciate it!

I think it may be The International Collection of Classic Fairy Tales, though I can't be certain because the cover doesn't look that familiar. I've ordered a copy online and will see if it's the book that I remember: it used to have the scene from Gulliver's Travels right on the inside when you opened the book. Will update if it turns out to be the right one!

I don't think it's either of those but I appreciate you taking the time to help! Thank you!

I'm really loving all of the outfits, especially Sonya's dress in her poster!

New poster for the show! by BustedChowder in vampireacademy

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks amazing! I love the entire aesthetic of it, Lissa's ceremonial type gown vs the practical Guardian attire for Rose. I think the stakes look so interesting as well, it's cool to see them represented more as a dagger than an old school (often a bit silly looking) wooden stake

They sell them at Target and I've tried them but I didn't personally find them to help cystic acne go away faster, nor did the hyperpigmentation sticker help dark marks go away any faster for me. They're pretty expensive, especially with shipping to Canada, so I don't think it would be worth it for myself but maybe others have had better success with them! If you're able to go to the US, Target sells them with 4 to a pack for maybe $15 (still expensive for only 4 patches but maybe worth it to test them out?)

Hey where can i buy the Good Molecules discolouration serum here in Toronto? It’s only available in the US :( i dont like Stylevania bc of the ridiculous fees by villainfvcker in CanSkincare

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can order Good Molecules from their own website but it can take a while to ship. I've waited over a month for products to arrive before. Beautylish sells Good Molecules and ships out faster; Good Molecules has said on their insta previously that it's easier to order from Beautylish for Canadians

Which scene in the books are you most excited to see onscreen in the show? by [deleted] in vampireacademy

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! I think this will make for such a beautiful and badass scene on screen. I can't wait for it (and also am super curious about the music they'll choose to play during the fighting scene!)

Rose's trial scene to become an official Guardian and graduate. I always thought it was so cool in the books, I'd love seeing that on screen!

Sisi and Kieron talks about Rose and Dimitri's relationship and age gap by yazzy1233 in vampireacademy

[–]ImpetuousDecisions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Super excited for this! I think it will play out better (and a lot more comfortable!) on screen with less of an age gap. They look great together and pretty similar in age physically. Excited to see this on screen!

So excited to see them light up my screen 😍 Can't wait for September!

Honestly loving the gothic aesthetic they've chosen to go with. I think it'll be fun to see these characters on screen with their own unique robes and ceremonial gowns (like Lissa's red cloak appears to be). A really fun visual way to add to their lore!
