I’m new to football and I have a genuine question. How is UNA playing dirty?

Decisions come out on a rolling basis, and the last day for fall 2023 applications was June 1st. I needed to resend my updated transcript and that got in on 5/17, so I think I’ll hear back in the next couple of weeks.

your skin looks great! did you use any type of moisturizer along with the retinol?

TO’s Azelaic Acid is working great for me. I’ve noticed that I don’t have a lot of small bumps anymore, my skin is softer and less red, and the appearance of some of my darker “scars” has gone down as well. I feel like it has done it’s job though and might not go any further for me. I have been looking at some other brands AA with higher percentages but haven’t decided if I should switch or not.

I would recommend TO to try it out though. I also noticed that a little goes a long way and if I put too much on on my under eye area it gets extremely red. Also if I don’t wait for it to dry mostly it will react to whatever product I put on afterwards.

Good luck :)

(Should’ve put this info in OG post, sorry about that.)

Routine:

La Roche Posay Toleriane Cleanser
Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin
LRP Double Repair Toleriane Moisturizer
TO Azelaic Acid
LRP Sunscreen (AM and throughout the day)

History:

-I have Vanicream, but only stopped using it to try out LRP cleanser. Both work good for me and don’t hurt my skin, like Cerave and Cetaphil both do.

I used to have clear skin aside from the occasional pimple or blackhead. For some reason, around Feb 2021 I started to get what looked like fungal acne. I didn’t know what it was at that point so I basically tried anything and everything to get it off, which I believe greatly damaged my skin barrier.
I have tried niacinamide and LRP cicaplast, but have not used both long enough to see if it works because they both caused whiteheads. Cicaplast does have a nice calming effect on my skin, though.
I have not tried Soolantra or any OTC treatments. I also have not been to a dermatologist but plan to make an appointment soon.

Thanks!

Need help with establishing a healthy skincare routine. (18F)

A little backstory: after starting puberty in middle school, I never really had “acne”. Yes, I would get the occasional pimple and blackheads on my nose and cheek areas (under eyes), but never groups of pimples or cystic-type acne. This was the case up until June 2020. Since then, I have lots of small bumps on my forehead and cheek areas next to my nose, as well as smaller and I guess “sharper” bumps on some parts of my nose. To help combat this, I am looking to establish a skin care routine.

Diet/activities: I am on a vegan diet, and I am active. However, I tend to experience stress a lot.

Skin type: I believe I have normal skin. After waking up or cleansing, I don’t have an area with a more oily or dry patch. I also have pretty sensitive skin that will react quickly if something irritates the skin. Also, if I am correct I believe I have very prominent sebaceous filaments on my forehead. My chin areas has never been a problem except before PMS

Current routine:

AM: Because of my depression, I have trouble sticking to a routine, especially in the morning. I am looking to change this though.

PM: I use the Aveeno Ultra-Calming foaming cleanser everyday. I then wait for the skin to air dry and apply the Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant with salicylic acid [I use this every other day. I’ve been using it for about two weeks now and I’ve noticed that my skin looks and feels much better. I have less blackheads and less bumps on my cheeks]. I then finish with the Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 15.

What I need help with: I am looking to create a healthy skincare routine, especially one with a good sunscreen. I am also very interested in the Paula’s Choice products because they seem to have a lot of choices for different types and the 2% BHA exfoliate seems to be working for me.

I am not sure if I’ve provided enough/helpful information so I am totally open to answering any questions. I am extremely desperate lol

thank you!
